The fact that MINI is calling their all-wheel drive option ALL4 makes me giddy. What a terrific and fitting naming convention.
In the future.. 2 - 3 years out, I imagine, I will get either an Audi A3 or the MINI Countryman. Those are really the only two cars out there in the world I love. Right now.. I’m leaning more towards the MINI. It’ll be so rare because it’s so fantastically ugly… but it’ll be a little rocket with 184bhp.
Want.

The peak-end rule - Bobulate

The peak-end rule - Psychologists and economists have advice about what really matters when it comes to vacations, and it’s not necessarily what we would expect: Because most importantly: See also:Airports as either first or last impressions of a city That means that: Your trip, your time off — even just a day off (or an afternoon off) — will really only be remembered for its high points. This, from me, reporting in from vacation.

Shut up.

I’d like to preface this little post by saying that I think that the color of this BMW M3 is unimpressive at best.

I’d like to continue this post by saying, “Shut up.” - People of all sorts, I say, “Shut up.” - with all due respect, mainly because no respect is due.

I like these companies lately, mostly car companies, that seem to be bringing high-caliber items to market with certain restrictions. The Bugatti Veyron can only be driven in certain conditions, at certain times and demands (yes, Bugatti will shut off your car if you don’t comply) a rigorous maintenance schedule.

Here’s the thing… When did consumers take away the right for a business to run itself in the way it want? Why is it so wrong? If I have the money and the absolute (first world) need for this damn BMW, no other will do, then it looks like I’m going to have to sign the papers to take care of it. If I just can’t comply… then screw me, I can take a different M3. It’s up to BMW.

People are forming lawsuits against AT&T and Apple… why, yes because of the antenna.. but also because they feel that the contractual bond between the companies isn’t fair. Seriously? Get over yourselves. You’re going to put all that money and effort into a lawsuit instead of switching to AT&T or .. *gasp* getting a new phone? You’re insane.

Maybe it’s Pat’s Cheesesteaks in Philly that set me on this path when I was young. Get in line, wait, order correctly.. OR START OVER, end of the line. It’s not just kitsch. In their case, it’s because the line is always so long and needs to move at such a quick pace that they operate by rules.

But we hate rules as a people. We can’t stand rules… not when they make what we want less possible. But that’s stupid. We’re all lazy, over-priveledge wankers.

I’m old an crotchety today.. but all of this frustrates me.

This is so badass, I have no words for it. Based on what I’ve seen in SF we’re halfway there.

Took my car to the doc this morning. The doctors drive nice cars.

The Shins “Gone for Good”

*Favorite parts in Bold

Untie me, I’ve said no vows
The train is getting way too loud
I gotta leave here my girl
Get on with my lonely life
Just leave the ring on the rail
For the wheels to nullify

Until this turn in my head
I let you stay and you paid no rent
I spent twelve long months on the lam

That’s enough sitting on the fence
For the fear of breaking dams

I find a fatal flaw 
In the logic of love
And go out of my head
You love a sinking stone
That’ll never elope
So get used to the lonesome
Girl, you must atone some
Don’t leave me no phone number there

It took me all of a year
To put the poison pill to your ear
But now I stand on honest ground, on honest ground

You want to fight for this love
But honey you cannot wrestle a dove
So baby it’s clear

You want to jump and dance
But you sat on your hands
And lost your only chance

Go back to your hometown
Get your feet on the ground
And stop floating around

I find a fatal flaw 
In the logic of love
And go out of my head

You love a sinking stone
That’ll never elope
So get used to used to the lonesome
Girl, you must atone some
Don’t leave me no phone number there 

The Shins “Turn a Square”

*Favorite parts in Bold

She shone up bright like a knife
Wearing tennis shorts made of stripes
Hand in hand to the grass and we got it right
Got it nice, nice, nice
Just a glimpse of an ankle and I
React like it’s 1805
And I’d swim to the poles just to find the right satellite
It’ll take all of my strength to give up

But you all know I tried
So forget about it, girl
My head’s like a kite
When such a creature I sight

To town!
Where you’re feet leave no prints on the ground
Have I left my home just to whine in this microphone?
It gets worse every time that we talk
Can’t afford to be just one in a flock
But that’s your lot
When you’re after such a well-made lock
Who was classically trained to give up

And my friends know I tried
So forget about it, girl
Even I don’t know why
I can’t just stay the course
Keep my hands on the wheel
Our detractors were right
My head’s like a kite
All my thoughts run astray
And I’m a walking cliche
When such a creature I sight
