How much can you take?
Funny I've also had a shard of plate served to me at Jack Astor's. My worst experience has to be with a waitress on her first day at the Lonestar Cafe, she was so nervous, damn at the end of the meal cleaning up the table she dropped the little bowl of salsa, it ricocheted (there is a word I've never typed before) off a plate still on the table and pretty much on to me. Luckily I was wearing a leather jacket already. I got a $30 voucher for my trouble. Stayed calm, I didn't want the waitress to start crying on me. Not 3 months later, I'm out again downtown Toronto at a Red Lobster, and who is my server? The same waitress. She remembers me as soon as she sees me and says "Don't worry, I'm normal now!"

Chicago: 2007 Toyota Tundra
I remember the Kenzie article in the Star waxing poetic over the new Impala when it seemed like he hadn't even driven it/never mentioned anything about actually driving it.

2007 Dodge Nitro
Its official, black/light gray interiors are dead to me thanks to Dodge/Chrysler over the last few years.

As long as the spoiler isn't stock, I like it. Too bad about the dash.

2007 Lexus ES350 - First Pics.
Well that is a letdown compared to the front end pics we've seen. Maybe its the anonymous silver colour and the interior would look better black but it only looks marginally better than the ES330. And the little curve at the top of the center console is weird.

WSJ: "39% of GM's 4Q Sales Were Fleet"
But then who would buy Malibu's, Impalas, Grand Prix's, LaCrosse's etc.

WSJ: "39% of GM's 4Q Sales Were Fleet"
I remember the article about the first 6 months having a similar percentage, hard to put into context without knowing historical GM #'s.

2007 Lexus ES350 - First Pics.
The front end does look like a big improvement over the current ES, thats for sure. It's going to be a good car for its intended audience, there is little doubt.

FIRE KEVIN MCHALE NOW!!!!!
I hope the Raptors are going to hire Bill Laimbeer so atleast I can say "Well my GM can beat up your GM!"

FIRE KEVIN MCHALE NOW!!!!!
LOL Bosh and Garnett, how could any team guard both of them. Throw in a box of chocolates and your on.

FIRE KEVIN MCHALE NOW!!!!!
Unfortunately the trouble in Raptorland stems as much from the MLSE president who fired him, Richard Peddie. If the Leafs miss the playoffs this year, Peddie will hopefully get the boot as well.

Buick Lucerne scores big
I would say the cars are changing more than the media. Build cars or trucks close or at the top of class, get a good review.

FIRE KEVIN MCHALE NOW!!!!!
At least you're not in Raptor country.. I have a feeling Bosh is going to get traded for 2 second rounds picks or something ridiculous as bad as its been lately.

g-6 convertible design flaw
You don't lose any space in the Sebring when you lower the top, its a separate area than the trunk area. I really think a big reason the Sebring has sold decently is its practicality as far as convertibles go.

Toyota chairman: U.S. gov't may help GM
Damn I could really use that info about Japan buying out Toyota's pension debts to shove in the face of some toyota worshippers I know :-(.

Kobe scores 81 - ALL by himself.
How did the Laker's roster get so bad aside from Kobe? I watched the game until he had about 60. The raptors coaching staff made some weird decisions like not really double teaming him till the fourth quarter. He was nailing everything though, it was insane.

reflections on Brokeback Mountain
Caught this movie, that last phrase was tough to hear but definitely a good way to end it. It didn't amaze me, but I enjoyed it. Heath Ledger's performance was excellent.
