Scientist predicts 'mini Ice Age'
2040? Global warming will be so bad by then we probably won't even notice until it's over and everything is too hot. This winter has not even been a real "winter", even here in Canada. Snow hasn't lasted a week yet.

What To Do When You're Bored...
My friend used to have an MX6 with a fart can like the top one. I stuck my wallet in it and told him it was his extra storage compartment.

TCC: Spy Shots: ’07 BMW 1-Series Convertible
That actually looks pretty good, especially considering what the rest of the 1-series looks like.

The taillamps and rear look different from the Toyota though.

When You Support A Political Party, Its Because...
Maybe "USA part II" is a bit extreme, but I'm very ashamed of my country right now. Maybe the Liberals did steal some money. Personally I don't care. I'd rather see the NDP as government, but not because of what the Libs did. Sure, the Liberals stole some tax money, but the Conservatives will just take the same tax money and give it all to corporations, to line the pockets of a few, and much will end up in American hands. I was proud of Canada as a place where you can stand up against American values and be more left wing. Now I just feel as if we've given in because of a little corruption, and it's so pathetic.

When You Support A Political Party, Its Because...
In Canada we get to pick the lesser of four evils (hehe) We just elected a minority government again, which means that no one party got 50% of the seats. It is a shaky situation where more than one party has to agree with a bill for it to get passed. It also means that if the government screws up bad enough, the opposition parties can vote them out. We don't have set government terms like the 4 years in the US, so they can vote 'em out whenever. The last minority government that just left lasted 18 months. It's the conservatives who are the government this time. I can't wait for these a-holes to got voted out. I don't want to turn into USA part 2.

What's wrong with putting it in line with the model name, like Pontiac does?

Irritating slang
How about the phrase "looks like kiss my ass"? ex. You take off your hat, to discover you have hat head, and say, "My hair looks like kiss my ass!" No grammatical sense.

Does anyone else find it hillarious...?
OK, so the SSR outselling it is a little strange, but the Lincoln I see around from time to time, and the B series is bloody everywhere!!! I probably see as many B series around as RX8s....

BV - ummm... this explaination is going to be graphic.... You know the sound a girls butt makes when it slaps against a guys hips? That's the "mack" sound. So to "mack" is to... have sex. I don't know what dome they were talking about though.

There seems to be a stain on Brian's driveway now, that looks surprisingly like empowah's faceprint :P :CG_all:

"AMERICA IS ADDICTED TO OIL"
Largest oil reserves by country (2005) (billions of barrels) 1. Saudi Arabia 261.9 2. Canada 178.8 3. Iran 125.8 4. Iraq 115.0 5. Kuwait 101.5 6. United Arab Emirates 97.8 7. Venezuela 77.2 8. Russia 60.0 9. Libya 39.0 10. Nigeria 35.3 I had no idea Canada had this much to tap into in the oil sands. I guess Alberta will keep getting richer while the rest of the country is SOL....

Pontiac G6
I really don't think it's a failure. Like Balthy said, it is the 11th best selling car in the US after one model year. It's just not living up to GM's expectations, which may have been too high to begin with. So lets not call it a "failure" just yet.

Well, seeing how an internet search for "skull caps" yeilded this: I guess they are called skull caps in the US. I've never heard that expression attached to those hats before though - the only thing that comes to mind for me when you say "skull cap" is the yamulka. Regional dialects do exist, eh?

No guesses? I'm telling you, this is REALLY simple. If you're thinking about geography, or politics, you're probably going too deep...

Pontiac G6
That kink in the G6 beltline has always reminded me of the same kink near the mirror of this car: Not really a historical reference you want if you're Pontiac.

Croc: skull caps are those orthodox Jewish hats. A touque is something you wear in the winter that goes over your ears.

I spy with my little eye...
That's pretty cool. It's starting to get eaten by the surrounding bush a little. Surprised there are no Stude fans willing to fell a few trees to keep it ledgible.
