Natter 66: Someone on the Internet is Wrong!
For the win!!
And I agree with many of you on gin...it makes me think of pinesol. Which a friend of mine did a shot of freshman year of college (...yah, bad plan. he was dared. we were all really drunk already. Senior year, he offered to do it again, and when we amazedly, hesitantly, were like "...dude, really?" he was like "FUCK NO, I'm not that dumb anymore!")
Unrelatedly, we've (at work) just determined that the genesis of curling had to be alcohol-based.
That and caber-tossing! Which is totally my favorite "sport" ever.
Dark and stormys (stormies?) are delicious. The bar on the corner near me does them yummy, and rightly, with ginger beer. Mmmm.
I feel like my friends who've had VWs through the years were always having to get random little things fixed on them. It totally, possibly irrationally, has taken any VW off of my possible future car list.
I love my VW Jetta V6 to absolute pieces, but since they don't make it anymore I a) can't recommend it for purchase and b) will get it repaired every time.
My cousin and her husband really like their VW Passat TDI, but they might just put up with random little things to fix in exchange for the mileage. Don't know.

My boss has had a number of issues with her Rabbit in the last year, after only having had it for three or four years. It's to the point where she's thinking of selling it and getting something else, definitely not a VW.
Another good thing about that fuel economy site is that it gives the economy of everything using 2008 EPA ratings so you can compare apples vs. apples with used cars.
Oh, msbelle. I'm sorry you can't run away.
But I am now willing to try fancy-schmancy cocktails made with gin, so I may be stepping back from my Gin = Ew stance.
Sure, you're willing to try them but you always make the EWWWW face when you do. It's cute.
I am pretty sure I am taking a personal day tomorrow. I may just get drunk tonight after he goes to sleep.
I just searched a bit to see if the Gus Raley I found last night actually exists, but there seems to be nothing anywhere besides that one comment and the LinkedIn profile. I found some birth, marriage, and divorce records for a Guy Straley of about the right age, but those seemed kind of irrelevant even if it is the right guy.
