Did anyone go see this?  How was it?  I have no desire to watch the movie, regardless of how many good actors were in it.  Further, I think I would have a seizure based upon the flashy previews that were running.

So, here is an interesting one to ponder…what car manufacturer has the best website?  Not who makes the best cars…but who has the “coolest” or most “useful” automotive website.  Again, this isn’t who has the coolest blog or forum…but it’s what manufacturer?  Comment with some reasons.

Two seven year olds, one of which was smoking cigarettes, decided to go Grand Theft Auto in grandma’s blinged out Durango. During that time of doing “fun hood stuff” they hit two parked cars, two moving cars, two mailboxes, a curb, a sign, etc. The good news is two fold, 1. no one was hurt and 2. a nasty portholed and dubbed out Durango is no longer on the road.

Our fellow site member, b-dash, is big into the outdoor sports.  Lucky for us, he is also into cars.  This was spotted on Mountainbuzz.com, an outdoor activity forum.  Apparently, some buddies were hoping to go kayaking.  They parked the car across the street, left it running with the e-brake engaged, to go check out if the spot was good enough to deploy the kayaks.  Unfortunately, the car was rather interested, it crossed two lanes and then plunged into the Payette River.

From there it took a spin down the rapids.  Remarkably, the car was still running when the tow truck pulled it from the river.  Check out the thumbs below or view a video from the local news station here.

I’m willing to bet that some of our wonderful commenters out there have spent some time in school, and thus can relate to the plight of finals. Yes, the one week where an academic career can be made-or broken- by simply filling in the wrong bubbles on a scantron form. Having said this, I will be partaking in my last set of finals for my undergraduate career next week, so late night study sessions have been the norm in my world. However, there is a light at the end of the tunnel, and with your help, I can get there. The skinny after the jump. Read the rest of this entry »
