and the term "Nervous Guy" is an English phrase meant to describe someone who is, well, you know...

I'm saving my money for one of these puppies.

Yeah nothing helps you appreciate oil more than having to squeeze it fresh from a dinosaur you had to kill with your bare hands...

Be a man! Buy a bike trailer! It will pay for itself in a month!

Yeah, great, so that instead of spending 10 hours away from my family every day (including my 35 mile one-way commute) I can spend 14-15...and freeze assorted body parts off in the winter...I'll stick with my 46+ MPG car, thanks.

Maybe Reed ought to buy you season tickets...

In all seriousness I took it as meaning that he didn't just show up in the mayor's office and proclaim himself mayor, that the people voted him in....Don't know who died so that he could be mayor though...

The total value of the first three years of his contract (including bonuses) put him at #3, behind Harrison and Moss, per This Article. Yes, it's okay for an NFL team to cut an underperforming player, but the way contracts are generally structured in the salary cap era, it would kill your cap to cut a highly-paid player early in a long-term deal, so it generally isn't done. There is some certainty in that respect. It's also allowable for a player to sit out, but to sit out a year into a long-term deal (unless they are grossly underpaid) is silly as well.

I think she maybe said "Turn off that television"...? She was waving toward the camera-man, and it seemed to end there...

Based on base salary, TO is #4 highest paid receiver. 2 of the 3 ahead of him are at the tail-end of back-loaded deals.

Well, let's under-bid them. Let's start a post going around here that a Bills trainer claims it's a sprained wrist and will take 4-6 weeks to heal. Nahhh, Bills Zone will under-bid that. Lets call it a bruise with a week to heal...that'll show them! Or we can go the other way with the "amputation" route...

Says the person with the Sam Adams avatar...

Do they have a version for monkeys?

The "Peter King" signature models that flush six times for every growler?

After all, NG will take any opening that's offered to him...though for T-b...er, "Bigfoot," he's more of a receiver...

Odd how they'd call this news...I remember hearing about cat toilet training kits 20 years ago...

while huffing canned air...

We have evidence that Richard Gere is hiding weapons of mass destruction. This is our secret weapon...

The Dr. has spoken...

Twice as much is a stretch...show me...Problem too is that deisel costs more than regular gas here (~ .12/gallon), so the $$ savings is partially negated.

That "artificial butter flavoring" from the popcorn musta made the ball slick....From the sounds of things they may have followed up the movie with a trip to Tahou's, perhaps...?

...and by the end of it you'll be wondering why they didn't win the Super Bowl, just like the Bills' "season in review" shows that have come out the past few years...

There are two Hybrid cars that look "futuristic/different:" Toyota Prius and Honda Insight. It is because they were built as "maximum mileage hybrids." In other words, they use the hybrid technology to maximize the mileage you get out of the vehicle. Since they were designed as "new" vehicles to deliver high mileage, the "look" of the vehicle was pretty much predicated by a need to minimize drag coefficient (how hard the car has to fight against the wind to move forward). There are several models, current and "coming soon" of hybrid versions of standard vehicles (including the Camry you mentioned, as well as Honda's Civic and Accord, and SUV's like the Toyota Highlander and Ford Escape). The only caveat you should note is that some manufacturers are looking at hybrid power trains primarily as a means to give a car more power than necessarily to increase the mileage, so when you look at the mileage of the hybrid version, it may not be significantly different than the non-hybrid version. EDIT: And with respect to alternate fuel sources, you have to deal not only with the cost of development of the vehicle, but of the refining and distribution of the fuel. Electric cars, even if they were usable as a "normal" car don't help much because they are effectively drawing power from an electrical grid that is primarily generated from fossil fuels. So you look at other options, like fuel cell vehicles. That's great and all, but an infrastructure of fuel cell refilling stations won't happen overnight...I'm just saying it's more than just the cost of the car development, but the supporting technologies as well... As far as the tax break goes, that's true and getting even truer next year... That is, more or less, how hybrids charge the batteries, from the tires when the car is coasting or braking. Obviously not in other situations, as the drag of the generator on the system would end up costing you gas mileage. Looks like my price per fill-up is going to go over $20 now....sigh...

Yeah, get them going on steroids and amphetimines instead...

or you can floor it and go over it....I've seen that executed perfectly more than once on CHiPs too... You don't think they'll have it fixed by then? "Yeah, just put a 'DIP' sign 100 feet ahead of it on both sides...that oughtta do it." God bless that road. It was a road that changed Rube's world...
