Where in the World Isn't Bob Saget?

Ski's Trans Am is officially uninsured and off the road effective Wednesday. Luckily, we finally picked up the winter beater today - a red 2003 Chev. Cavalier.

I also decided to take Son #1 off of the Altima, so there should be no further "incidents" south of the border. He is now insured on the Cavalier only, while Ski can drive any of the Altima/LaCrosse/Cavalier.

Red? What the heck was Hubby thinking?
Simple, the police watch red vehicles more then the other colors. That said, I am so tired of how bland we have become as a society. Look in any parking lot and all you there is, is a sea of white, silver, tan or black cars. It's like we don't need color receptors in our eyes anymore. I hate that. Of course, I am old and still remember when cars were multi-colored (or coloured, if in Canada). Even two and three tone cars were common back then. They may have been tanks and undependable, but, they were purty.

Hmmmm ... the Altima might be white. And the LaCrosse too. The Trash Am is black of course, so maybe we were due for a little colour in the driveway.

Please PM me your address so I can forward all speeding tickets directly to you.

Some of us have blue cars.

I didn't buy him the red car sweety. Good luck with that, however, it is a Cavalier so it would take many miles to get it up to the illegal speed.

There's one in every crowd. I'll bet it's a dark blue so in most light it still looks black. I miss the maroon, yellow, bright green, metallic green, lavender (that was best two tone, tan and lavender), light blue and whatever other color that Detroit could conjure up. For a number of years Chevy made a car (Vega) that was rust colored. It didn't start out that way, but, within a year or so, that's what it ended up being. Even the Ford Pinto eventually ended up looking like fire. :happy:

It is a deep blue that looks blue. If you see it as black (or white and gold), you probably shouldn't be driving with that kind of eyesight.

Well, I guess you're just a rebel. But, that is one in a thousand. I'm proud of you, but, it doesn't change the fact that 999 of the cars out there are as drab as a floor mop.

At the laundromat, washing king sized comforters.
I had to buy a pizza next door to break a $50 bill.

So, guess what I'm having for supper.
That's right - a sub. I don't like pizza.

From last night. Over at Dad's house rearranging the living room, wrapping Christmas presents, and getting stuff ready for a big family get-together next week. All while this is going on...the dog sits quietly on the sofa, intently watching Santa Conquers The Martians.
It's her favorite holiday movie. (Don't judge)

She's probably getting tired of Frozen.
Oh snap. That one stung a little even through the computer screen. Well played. Well played indeed.

By the way, after we got finished moving furniture, wrapping, and rearranging even more stuff in the house last night, we went outside and watched a meteor shower from Dad's driveway just after midnight.

Let me say that again so you all can completely grasp the total symbolic epicness of what occurred. We were standing out on Dad's driveway, watching a meteor shower from outer space...at the exact same moment Star Wars was having it's premiere in LA.

Cannot describe how this impacted my inner-nerdiness.

998. I now have a red one too.
Seriously, Canadians cannot be considered since they don't really count when it comes to statistics, eh. Beside a white car would be way to easy to lose in the snow. So it's still 999! I also don't think that the word "rebel" appears in the Canadian dictionary. Sneaky polite is there though.;)

Doing a little simple mathematics here. I just added up all of the forum members who are Star Wars fans, and plan on seeing the new movie this weekend. Factor in showtimes across the board for U.S. & UK when people will be preoccupied inside a theater, divide by the square-root of pi, and I have concluded that there could be a period of 2 - 4 daytime hours on the forums this weekend when there will be absolutely NO activity whatsoever.

Oh good, time for me to set up a few practical jokes while everyone's at the movies!
