Amen. They control the supply anyways. They create unneccesary shortages to drive up prices.

Where do you work? *Columbus steel castings* What do you do? *I'm a carpenter* This is actualy some thing that I'd like to do, seems like my kind of fun.

Some of you guys live down this way. Not entirely sure what they pay assemblers, but a few of them have new cars.

Jegs has cheezeborger now: http://www.jegs.com/p/BBK/820141/10002/-1?source=home&coll=item5&pos=5 Can I has?

Actually, by deffinition, it's a cartel.

Yup, I like the platform, but the Saabs look better. Took this tonight: http://img524.imageshack.us/img524/5379/crqq6.jpg

I know I know. Fresh screen name, too! The summer car-show season is coming, too, and I want mroe trophies (snagged some last year). Everytime I see this car, I say (occasioanly out loud) "Damn that's a good looking car". I need to be (weap) more sensible. I've got a crazy car, I need one that makes more family sense.... like a V70R or 92x Aero.

Feeler for interest: Do a bit of research on the 95-97 XJRs, they are the good ones, the newer ones are fragile expensive crap. 1996 Jaguar XJR 322bhp, 378tq straight DOHC 6cylnder Eaton M90 with Behr liquid-ait intercooler Black ext, light tan interior Gobs and gobs of features from 3pos memory seats to Harman Kardon sound system. It even opens my garage door, and 3 other peoples garage doors if I can get their fobs. Cold-galvanized body at the factory = zero rust. New belts, steering rack, and drivers door latch hardware. Great shape, 80k miles, black paint that you could mistake for a mirror. Bad things: -Dash clock display; doesn't display human numerals. -CD cartridge for 6 disc changer missing. -Wont carry my canoe... well, I won't put my canoe on it. -Drinks premium (beeewst) -Damnit I cant beleive I'm selling this thing $9500 gets you the best car ever to come from the famed Browns Lane, Coventry factory. I singled this generation out because it didn't come with any of the normal problems that Jags seem to have... with the exception of the door handles. Pics available if you really need them. Just picture a perfect Jag XJR and you've pretty much got it. Not mine: http://images.cars.com/main/DMI/113606/4309A.jpg

That would only make it angry.

What the fuck were those things on her chest? Looked like she stuck some stress-squeazy-balls in a bra

Damn... you should have pooped on her loofa while you had the chance. Seriously, as long as you cleaned it out, the best thing would be to NOT tell anyone. The fuck did she want you to do? "Hey honey, I shat all over the shower" *what?* "Yeah, I sharted in there, made a hell of a mess" *you're kidding me, that's disgusting!* "Get's worse, I got some on your loofa" *OH MY GOD ARE YOU KIDDING ME, I'M GOING TO BE SICK!* "It's ok, i cleaned it out realy good" *... oh, well ok then. Now shhh, I'm watching What Not to Wear. luv yoo {hugs}* I was violently ill once, puked and shat high pressure poo'fluid all over the shower. You think I told anyone? ... hey wait

There's really no need to reply to this, it's very simple and requires no discussion: Gas is a neccesity, the world doesn't function without it. Commerce dies. Gas prices go up, because they are allowed to. Gas prices will continue to go up as long as they are allowed to. Period. Those controlling the fuel know that it is needed, and that people will pay pretty much whatever they charge for it. We need it. The fuel industry has a solid record of unscrupulous activities in the interests of protecting their profits. Why is it a surprise they they have corrupted our leaders and are profiting off of our fiscal misery? They charge what they do because they can, Period. Want to change it? Remove control of the oil from them. Period.

Yer Durk-Durka-Dion it wrong!

For defense!

But Ryan never pooped on your loofa...at least, he never told anyone.

I hate to break it to you, but everyone uses middle east oil. The world oil supply is so diluted that it is impossible to tell where a given companyies gasolene came out of the ground. Just because they don't buy from middle easters refineries doesn't mean that the crude didn't come out of the sandbox. People will buy wherever it is cheap, or where ever is closest when their tank is on E. Personally, I put Sunoco 94 in my car anyways.

Stop buying gas, it's the only way.

I thought that was what VW Vortex was for?

Which ones? The ones witht eh guys in tight pants rabbing eachother? Maybe the one with guys in tight pants tossible balls at eachother? Maybe the one where guys in short shorts run around after a ball? Only strait virile men shower with eachother? I'm confused.

I have created, cultivated and subsequently strained relationships online. Overall, I attribute it to the outside world making me nuts and the internet providing a readily available means to act like an ass. Perhaps that is where the conflict is; Real World vs E-world. I hate cars, and I hate car people....especially you. Grrrrrr

Yessir. Kids a cook, like a black Nixon.

*insanely jealous*

No I didn't, I didn't have an incapable car. During my drive I saw dozens of people who were stuck or involved in accidents, there was no consistency to the type of vehicle. Cars, trucks, semi's. 2wd awd 4x4, it didn't fuckin matter, idiots end up in the ditch, capable folk stay on the road. What vehicle you take out is moot. I chose mine because it was 2000lb and has 165 series tires on it, perfect for getting around in the snow.

Blizzard? What Blizard? I drove about 120mi Sunday, 30 on Saturday morning, and another 100 today. I saw some snow, but no blizzard. I drove about 30 miles on Saturday, in an '86 rwd corolla. I didn't get stuck on the roads, would you like to call me a moron? Morons are anyone who thinks that the vehicle they are in is going to get them through the shit. It doesn't matter what the fuck you drive, braking is braking, turning is turning, and sliding is sliding. I'm "unsafe" because I might get stuck? i.e. I may stop moving? How about all the cunts in 4000lb steel boxes sliding sideways at 40mph, what are they? My only trouble came in the unplowed, untrafficed culdesac leading to my moms driveway, I had to make a 90deg turn and clear a drift as high as my bumper. I spent the day shoveling out a path from her driveway out to a trodden road, about 1/8 mile.

I'll give ya that, "batshit crazy" is tough to understand.
