  2. I remember considering two part-time jobs just to pay for school, and trying to work out scheduling to allow two p/t jobs and full time school. I ended up taking a "hiatus" of my own to pay for school that turned out to be indefinite. I really need to get back to school myself.
  3. hmmm....that's a tall order. I would think Hess would still have them, or they'd be in the hands of collectors such as yourself. where to look....

    http://en.wikipedia....Nuclear_fallout doesn't look as though it says anything about average range, but i was just skimming. I also think that there are certain factors that would affect that, such as the blast site's location, topography, weather, etc.
  5. I'd like to see them make it look more like the R8 or the E-tron concepts. More than that I'd like it to perform more like a baby R8.

    9/11 seems an obvious choice. everybody was impacted by that in one way or another, be you scared, saddened, angered, or all three. Though they happened in my lifetime, things like the Challenger explosion, the fall of the Berlin Wall, the Collapse of the Soviet Union or the first Gulf War all happened when I was a kid. I do remember the first George Bush and him pronouncing Saddam Hussien's name wrong (Saad'm HOO sain). Come to find out in my adult years he did that on purpose as a thinly veiled insult. I remember being a young teenager in the mid - late 90's, wanting to rage against the establishment. I thought I was a badass hardcore punk rocker, but honestly I don't even think I fooled my dog. I remember making fun of Bill Clinton when he was impeached, hoping he'd get axed. But then I grew up and grew a brain, and now I kinda wish we had somebody else like him with his tenacity and work ethic, who knew how to beat a deck stacked against him and get things done, instead of the spineless jellyfish we have in office now, or these hypocrite elitist xenophobes all trying to muscle him out. God, I hate politicians.

    call me nosy, but I've always found people's deep thoughts and feelings fascinating; it sort of provokes the same in me as well.

    iiinteresting.

    i never saw the dark blue/white one! ooh, that may have made buying the 10-pack worth it.

    almost looks like he was trying to draw a Cadillac.

    found it. bought it. I'd rather a different color though. Last year it was available in silver w/ a black stripe. yeah i think that's the one in the 10-pack. I thought it looked light blue though.

    found it. bought it. I'd rather a different color though. Green/white isn't as appealing as the light blue/black.

    now that would be funny.

    neat! so it was just essentially running on it's right bank?
  16. It may not be better than a CTS-V, but no slouch either, and it's hot to boot. I'll be the first (and possibly only) to give this one a "hell yeah."

    oh wow. I can;t believe I missed this. <--nevermind this oblivious dork hiding behind the Camaro's grille. Happy Birthday, Dave!
  18. And Chris, I clicked on the link in your sig and perused your pictures (that is until Facebook told me I had to sign in or sign up to continue). I have to say your NSX shot is the best one I've seen of that car.
  19. I'm just glad he didn't get a pic of me in the Versa, though Chris and I did take a full 20 minutes to mock it mercilessly. I was rather comfy in the new 370Z though.... The new Z looks rather fetching now that it's cleaner, i must say. I just wish there was more surface development so it didn't look so blubous and amorphous in any color that isn't metallic
  20. I'm guessing the it's resident aeronaut ...unless he was the one taking the picture... doo doo doodoo doo doo doodoo...

  22. BMW has more cash than it knows what to do with, besides unlike Australians, German voters are pretty nationalistic when it comes to purchasing vehicles, they have a German first mindset, too bad Americans don't think that way ... Americans have a 'cheapest wins' mindset instead. very true. We used to have an America First mindset. Now people shop Honda and Toyota first.
