I couldn't have put it better myself, h#1. Of course, if RHR doesn't win -- or at least make a really good showing -- he'll have a lot to answer for. I'd say this puts him in a very awkward position...

It's not just cars, though. I remember one of my neighbors having a pop-up camper called a "Nimrod." And where I come from, that's a euphemism for "idiot." Which is funny because it was appropriate.

It certainly is.

It would be interesting to compare the names manufacturers give their cars with the ones that people who drive them actually call them. Of course, many of them probably wouldn't be appropriate for...

AA = Andretti Autosport? Alcoholics Anonymous? Alcoholics Autosport?

lol! :D

It certainly would, Dave. It certainly would.

And, since many of the Irish who came to the U. S. in the 1800's were also Catholics with this "thing" against many forms of birth control, they were quite .... prolific. ;)

I know what you mean about meaningless car names. Well, they'r meaningless to us but, to some marketing "geniuses" -- and possibly a handful of people in "focus groups." Then they add to it by adding...

What? You mean this part:


"Amendment 4 - Search and Seizure. Ratified 12/15/1791.

The right of the people to be secure in their persons, houses, papers, and effects, against unreasonable...

lol -- All I can think is, "Gonna wash that man right out of my hair,..."

:rolleyes: I know waaaaay too many show tunes.

Funny how it seems like the price of fuel is generally inverse to the amount of fuel in my tank.

D I Y Full Service?

I wash my windscreen, headlights, and generally do as much as I can to use as much of their stuff that they have laying around. I figure that, as much as I'm paying to fill up my truck, I'm paying...

I can see why. Thanks for sharing that!

It's confusing how things that sound so similar are, in fact, quite different. If the people who developed this silly language were still alive, they should be caned. :p

Road trip?

That ... looks ... so ... TOTALLY ... AWESOME!!! :D

I have to agree with you beachgirl. I'd also add that DP seems to be doing better on ovals -- especially Indy -- than on road courses. And, in NASCAR, she mainly races ovals.

Back to the original...

I'm not a fan of it, either. Trying to get the kids to go to bed before it gets dark -- and then out of bed to go to school before the sun comes up? And, since Congress in their "infinite wisdom"...

Lol -- Good point!

There was a time, I thought about getting a leaping cat if Jag won the F1 constructors title. I suppose if Adrian had joined the team then -- as opposed to after it became Red Bull -- I might have...

Since I don't have any contact with anyone from either group, I have to settle for having mine done at a parlor.

Yeah, I have to agree with you on both counts. I didn't see either game either.
I've been a Pitino fan since he was with Kentucky. Of course, that's why the game is played on the court -- and not...

I suppose she can get a nice butterfly to cover it up? Like they say, "A tattoo is forever. Think before you ink."

My youngest daughter's name is Rose, so I had one put on my left arm to always...
