What I want to know, is Norman Pass Nelson Pass' evil twin?

This. Nice job, Peter!

Are you sure that's not an Australian Purple Swamp Water Strider?

My condolences, Mikey.

Indeed, very nice.

Helen Mirren looks good, young or not. However, can she really compare to Jessica Rabbit?

All you have to do is buy a Tesla.

Actually, the Mazda2 and Ford Fiesta are competitors. The Ford Focus is the competitor to the Mazda3. I bought my Mazda3 at Perry Ford Mazda here in Santa Barbara. I first drove a Focus (Platinum, I believe). I was very impressed. This definitely wasn't my daddy's Ford. Then I drove a Mazda3 with the 2.5l engine. As good as the Ford was, the Mazda was slightly better in every way that was important to me. The Ford Mazda collaboration has worked well for Ford (and for Mazda). I suspect that Ford is regretting selling their 33% (and controlling) share in Mazda and then later cancelling their collaboration agreement. Mazda learned a lot about what big-time car manufacturers must do while keeping true to their "zoom zoom" philosophy. The look to be well placed for the future.

Belated Happy Birthday, Ryan! :prettyprincess:

In the snow?

The Mazda6 is very nice, in case you haven't looked at it. My sister bought one when I bought my Mazda3.

Good luck and wishing you and your mother the best, Steve. Ugh! Sorry to hear that Nate. Did you go MacGuyver with a ziploc bag and a hammer? I'll second this. I just did it and it wasn't bad. I used Edmunds.com to get a quote from a dealer about 100 miles away. I took it to the local dealer and they matched it. Of course, it helped to have a nice salesperson. Sounds like a Subaru Outback or Forester would do the trick for you.

I was thinking that he could buy one of your prototypes when you finally sell them.

Looks like you probably didn't get sea sick. If you can, give me a call the next time you are in SB.

The Kings look to be out of gas. Hopefully they can at least make this series interesting.

In other words, an audio wannabe.

Review tl;nep (not enough paragraphs) Who the hell is Mike Mercer anyway? Edit: Somehow I doubt he's the basketball player that Google comes up with.

Happy Birthday, Jeffy. :prettyprincess: Have a great one.

If it's a fairly new house (30 years old or less) or has been updated with Romex, it's actually pretty good. It's nice, solid core, copper wire 14 or more likely 12 gauge wire. Of course, the wire in most power cords is just fine too.

Belated Happy Birthday, Zach. :prettyprincess: Hope it was a great one!

Which floor are the cigars on?

Al, it doesn't need to be a mortal sin. It's self-punishing.

Congrats, Shelly! Now I know where to come if I need a math tutor.

Happy Birthday, Naaman! :prettyprincess: Hope it was a great one. How does flying the new ship compare to the Kiowa?
