Larger Engines in the Corvette?
Those Quad4s were horrible in terms of NVH. They sounded bad and were rough. I'll take the drop in power for the refinement of the EcoTec.

Playoff time
Mussina pitched pretty well last night (and Colon coulnd't seal the deal, giving up 2-out runs, UGH!) but the Yankees staff isn't all that impressive. Johnson is old, Mussina has had injury and consistancy issues and who would have ever though that the Yankees would be starting a pitcher with 116 CAREER innings in game 2 of the playoffs? Wang has been decent for a rookie playing in New York, but I dont think he'll out-pitch John Lackey who has postseason experience. The Red Sox are no better, Clement got shelled yesterdayand wasnt' that great in his playoff starts as a Cub. Wells is a great clutch picter, but he's like 65. Schilling hasn't been right all year, bloody sock days are behind us. The White Sox starters have been dependable, but are still a question mark. The National League is pretty difficult as well, the Cardinals jumped out to a huge lead and almost blew it. If Peavy had been healthy that game could have gone either way. The Cards bullpen could cost them. Thats why they play the games.

I've been seeing a lot of that recently. Kind of takes the fun out of it.

Things I'm tired of
Anyone who says the Malibu is a nicer car to spend time in than an Accord obviously hasn't actually sat in an Accord. I think the prime example of a GM interior not living up to its price point is the last Bonneville. Huge gaps, cheap plastics, vents and buttons galore, if those buttons were blanks I'd believe that I was sitting in a J-body. GM is playing catch up and I wish them the best of luck.

I'm not a believer iin Aaron Small. He seemed more lucky than good, I have to wonder if that will remain true in the playoffs. Chacon on the other hand I think is the real deal.

Speaking of funny, Nick, I love the new addition to the sig.

TCC unveils Yukon and Yukon Denali early!
The first time I looked at the pics, I thought it looked kind of strange. Looking at them again, I really like it.

President Bush Joke
Ruben Studdard is fat. George W Bush is an idiot. If they had a child, it would be a fat idiot. See, I've never been good with jokes.

Stupid laws...
Kind of surprising, that could probably be a great source of revenue. Fine people $50 the first time, $100 the second time and so on. As long as they dont include jail time, people will pay, the cities will make money and the great cycle of the government sucking continues.

Playoff time
Its October, that means playoff baseball. As much as I hate to admit it, the Cardinals look pretty good. But here is how I see it going: NLDS Cardinals over Padres in 3 (Peavy is done, Padres have no shot) Astros over Braves in 4 (Kyle Farnsworth blows a save or two, just like when he was a Cub) ALDS White Sox over Red Sox in 4 (I never thought I would say that, but the Chi Sox whooped up today) Angels over Yankees in 5 (This one will go the distance, the Angels are the better team) NLCS Astros over Cardinals in 7 (Look at that staff, Petitte has dominated in the second half) ALCS Angels over White Sox in 6 (Sorry, not Chi-towns year) World Series Astros over Angels in 5 (They'll get the monkey off the back with the NLCS, just like the Sox last year, if they can win the pennant, they will win it all)

Damn....and does that mean no phone sex?

GMC Yukon
I think it said somewhere a while back that the 'Sclade will be shown at the beginning of November. I really dont feel like looking it up though.

How good are y'all at parrell parking?
Better in real life than I am in that stupid thing.

Parts and Prices...
One other thing to consider, how hard is it to replace? If the good one is going to last and it is a huge pain in the ass to replace, by all means spend the extra money to keep yourself from having to replace it again.

Parts and Prices...
I'd go with the cheap one. If you only intend to keep the car another 30k miles and you have to replace the cheap one every 15k, you're still only spending $60 instead of $90.

Car Spotting
I saw on my little road trip today a black Prowler, a red Viper and a ton of Mini Coopers. Also, lots of boring, nondescript cars getting really small in my rearview mirror very quickly.

Stupid laws...
I'm not allowed to stab anyone I dont like in the face with a screwdriver, thats a pretty stupid law.

Those Pesky Deer...
Just imagine if he were in a Crown Vic and the deer were chasing him and he slammed on the brakes.

Car selling on Sundays
I know no dealers in MO are open on Sunday, not sure if its a law or not. Could it be because if someone buys a car on Sunday, they wouldn't be able to register it or get insurance until Monday? Stupid reason, I know, but laws are stupid.

Rice aint cool at my school
Where are the Impala, Silverado and HHR built? I'm pretty sure Americans aren't crossing the borders into Canada and Mexico to build these things, so while the end profit does go to an American company, several GM models are built with foreign labor.

Ford Skyliner
My dad had one. It was a '59 if I remember correctly. Everything but the interior was restored when he sold it in the mid-90's.
