Highway 401 (Ontario)
Anything is good compared to Boston's Big Dig. It could have ended up MUCH better if there wasn't so much shoddy construction. Leaky and collapsing tunnels? No thanks.

Can't stand it anymore...
Sinus infections was only one of the reasons why I went. I had been suffering from double ear infections on and off for about 8 months. I was also having severe pain in my upper neck. A few times I couldn't even lift my head or get out of bed because it felt like a Mack truck kept running over my head.

Can't stand it anymore...
I've been going to a chiropractor for 4+ years and it has since removed my sinus infections completely.

OK My Little Liebschins, I leave for Opel on May 6th

So my friend's sister...with the Civic..
LOL, I can't figure this out. Was the previous owner like, "Seriously, time to upgrade my vehicle. But I just CANNOT part with these wiper motors. They are fantabulous. I shall take them with me." Honestly.

Land of the Free
I want to know how much it costs/the effort needed to become a US citizen. What prevents people from not doing it legally? Is it a laziness thing, an education thing, or something entirely different? Sorry to sound so naive... My grandparents came to this country legally from Poland in the late 30's to escape the Third Reich. I wonder how much has changed in 80+/- years in immigration laws. Again, sorry to sound so naive. I just have absolutely no knowledge in this area and would like to be informed.

US Employers Ramp up Hiring in March, Unemployment at 5-Year Low
This has to do with the gas issue. I was talking with my mom, and she said that gas never use to fluctuate like is does now a days. She said it might go up a few cents over the course of six or so months, and then come back down. It's crazy that it can change a nickel, dime, even a quarter overnight. Although, at $2.50 a gallon, we have it better than pretty much all of Europe.

Hyundai said to release new BH to compete against luxury cars
Like you didn't just set yourself up for someone to say something about the quality of DCX vehicles. But I won't be the one to make any of "those" comments... Like someone said above, it all comes down to what it's going to look like. I don't care if it's got RWD, AWD, 4WD, or even *gasp* FWD. If it looks like crap I'm not going to want to drive it everyday.

Saturn releases Aura Green Line Pricing
I like the fact that It's a hybrid, but if its using the old EPA regulations as opposed to the new ones, then I would not be surprised if the mileage goes down a couple more points. It will still be better that both of the other Aura's, but how will it stack up against the Camry and Altima hybrids? People will compare the numbers and automatically gravitate towards the Camry and Altima because of the "better-looking" numbers.

Pictures!
Can I tell you how long it took for me to get that I was like, "Why would MJ's favorite town be Dubois, Indiana? It's not THAT special..." Then it dawned on me DO BOYS. LOL. Well, I was Speed Racer for Halloween, and I happened to find this on my computer. Chyea, 17 and I still trick or treat.

Honda sneaks up on Big Three
As an entire vehicle, the Ridgeline doesn't work for me. However, I think it uses some nifty features that other makers could incorporate into their vehicles. Another thing I've always wondered though, why do people feel the need to belittle the name of the vehicle? Like you're going to hurt it's feelings or something. Please give me a break.

Relaxation techniques....
To relax and/or clear the mind (for me at least): - do math problems. . Weird as it sounds, I usually find comfort in the fact that I can actually figure something in my life out logically. - read. Anything works. My favorite authors are Bill Bryson and Jodi Picoult. - music. Put on anything really catchy. Turn it way up. Sing along. Repeat as necessary. LOL, after typing this I feel like such a NERD.

The Nissan skit.
Deep Breath. No one ever said that they were American products. They said that 70% of NMC vehicles are made in the United States. While technically "jap" is short for Japaneses, It is quite rude (IMO) to say it, as is the word gyp to gypsy. I think we need to get back to discussing cars.

Sexual Preference
This kind of goes off tangent, but I figured I'd add it because every time I tell it I laugh. Last year I was in the School Library with my class and I'm sitting there working on my essay. I get up to get a print-off and as i get back to my seat, 4 of these mega-ego guys (read: the school "in" crowd) come up to me and begin to harass me about what they think is my sexual preference. One of the guys yells out (in a library no less), "Sam, are you a fag?" And without missing a beat I replied just as loud, "Why, you wanna bang me?" and add a pelvic thrust for good measure. Then I turned around and continue writing my paper. Needless to say the entire room cracked up and all 4 of them got redder than I've ever seen someone get. As for preference...lets go with 2.

It's official. Chrysler's up for auction...NOT?
I'd rather GM be in the #2 spot with more excellent products than the #1 spot with more lukewarm products.

GENEVA: 2008 Peugoet 4007 & Citroen C-Crosser
The Citroën looks vastly better than the Peugeot exterior-wise. Interior-wise, I don't think it captures anything the French are capable of: http://img507.imageshack.us/img507/520/cit...interiornb0.jpg

Unpure Thoughts...
Because it's the only truck I'd ever consider. That and maybe it isn't such a guilty pleasure . I merely stated that those were cars I wanted to own. :]
