So Who knows New Hampshire?
I live in a suburb of the capital, Concord. Very quiet 50 weeks of the year...then NASCAR comes to town. Not that I mind.

It feels so Good ...
As I like to say, Hamilton College is the Little Ivy with the Big Ivy Price. I'm just glad that they pay for 1/2 of it (for the time being anyways...).

It feels so Good ...
After graduation, I'll have just over 6 digits in college debt. This Government/Chinese double major better get me a good job

GM has more troubles than you think
I stopped after reading the sub title. Not worth the time.

February 2009 Sales: General Motors
While I hate to play devil's advocate...There were 2,705 G8's sold in February, and 3,699 Scion's sold(1). So while the G8 might outsell each individual Scion model, it hasn't quite eclipsed the brand. [/devil's advocate] (1) Toyota 03/09 Sales Overview ----- That being said, The G8 is doing pretty well in the current market, and without a doubt is one of my favorite GM models. I hope Pontiac can stick around, and maybe inject a little EXCITEMENT!!!!!! (I can't help myself today it seems) into the rest of the brand.

Chrysler beats GM in Canada for the first time ever
Not enough EXCITEMENT!!!!!!!!! over at GM, it seems...

Why New Hampshire > Massachusetts
New Hampshire is a pretty chill place, however, only once you go north past Manchester. I really like the Concord area's (slight bias haha) and the Lakes Region.

Life, and other things
Sometimes the world works in mysterious ways. Things happen, and for the life of us, we can't figure out why. Why them? Why now? It just seems so unfair. On Saturday, one of the best persons I had the pleasure of knowing had a massive stroke, and a day later, she was gone. This woman was more than just a good friend, she was one of the best teachers I ever had in high school, really shaped me into the person I am today. She wouldn't let you get away with anything in class without first publicly poking fun at you and then explain what you needed to know. I remember in class one time, a reference to the Diet of Worms was made, and being an idiot, said, "Wow, that'd be gross." She turned to me and said with a straight face: "Sam Dxxxx, have you ever heard the famous Mark Twain quote? The one that goes "Better to keep your mouth closed and be thought a fool than to open it and remove all doubt"? You sir, are a grade A fool. The thing is, I deserved it, and it was hysterical. She is the one who made me want to become a teacher. It doesn't feel real yet, I talked to her Thursday about visiting her classroom and seeing her. She will be sorely missed. I just don't get life. I never was a regular poster here, so I feel kind of awkward just kind of releasing this here, but I needed an outlet. Thanks

Pebble Beach: 2010 Cadillac SRX debuts
To be honest, I like the exterior. However, what scares me the most is an interior that looks similar to the VUE or Equinox.

Pebble Beach: 2010 Cadillac SRX debuts
So at the risk of looking dense, is this based on Theta Premium? If so, does this mean almost every GM brand is going to have at least 1 Theta vehicle? 1. Chevrolet Equinox 2. Pontiac Torrent (going away in favor of GMC variant?) 3. Saturn VUE 4. GMC Terrain 5. SAAB 9-4X 6. Cadillac SRX Am I missing any?

Cobalt drivers under 30
Three people I work with have them: 21 year old guy - yellow LT coupe 22 year old guy - silver LS coupe 18 year old girl - blue LS sedan They love them. They all bought them within 9 months of each other. The 21 year old bought his, raved about it, the 22 year old bought his, raved about it, and the 18 year old girl bought hers. I'd consider a Cobalt after college, although by that time it might be the Cruze. I'd get a red LT coupe right now if I could.

2009 Holden Epica
I actually kind of like it. Granted, it's not flashy, but it's certainly no Camry.

Cali fornia leads the way
Serious question alert: Will any car get a perfect score? Almost all vehicles in America run on a fossil fuel, so they all contribute to increased pollution (notice I didn't say the "dirty phrase"). Even the Prius uses it's gasoline engine, so it can't get a 10.

anyone heard of Flobot?
My friend Julia showed them to me a few weeks ago, and I like them. Handlebars and Stand Up are my favorites.

I am gonna blow... This is one of hell'uva a RANT!
Please, this type of rant makes you look like an incoherent fool, makes C&G look like a 2nd rate forum, and drives the people who want to talk about ALL cars away. You love Pontiac. Fine. I love Mercury. Whatever. But why do you hate Toyota so much? Maybe you could post reasons like, "Toyota takes jobs away from Americans, which is wrong" instead of "OMG STOOPID LIBERALS DRIVE PRII, AND I HATE ALL LIBERALS, THEREFORE, TOYOTA ='S THE SUKKK!" Astonishing: You can be rational and coherent and still get your point across. And everyone wonders why C&G has been on the decline.

Reason #421,572 why I hate TOYOTA
I hate to come off as a jerk, but who cares what someone else drives? Honestly, if they liked the Prius so much, who cares if THEY invested the time researching it and spent THEIR money on it. It seems like when people buy a non-domestic product everyone goes into defense/attack mode: "OMG I can't believe you beat up my 86-year old grandmother, stole her life savings and bought a(n) [insert car you hate here]!!!!!11!!! I hope your car catches fire!" Jeez. It's not like I'd want to live with a Prius everyday either, but at least I can keep stupid comments like that to myself. As for your second point...maybe if the driver in Sixty8's post wasn't "trying to make the light", she wouldn't have hit his friend. I know not every thread has to be serious, as shown by the LOL CATS thread, but seriously, when you make treads like this EVERY OTHER DAY, it gets rather absurd. Just sticky a thread or something.
