In the back it's a black berkline leather couch. Great couch, soft and comfy. leg rests too. I got it for a song really. The front is my baby though. Nice thick leather, supple and buttery. Not as soft as the berkline. I'm a great big fat guy though so it works. It has a center console that pulls down So for friends coming over there can be beer and snacks, it also has heat and vibrations for the 2 side seats. If the wife wants snuggle time, it works, if I want beer and nachos, etc, then I get that too. Best of both worlds. Also got a great deal. I spent less than 2k on the pair delivered. Getting them down through a drop through in my kitchen because I have a spiral staircase.... well that's why we have friends right?

podcast man. or CARPUTER!

carputer is the cheapest and most flexible.

Just takes work on your part. A laptop can be a carputer, but I wouldn't bother spending that much money on a carputer. I don't beleive in reaccuring costs much like satalite radio.

I have a netbook that I've seriously thought of doing a carputer w/ gps with.

do EET!

aaaaaand.... one of our media shelfs. Completely disorganized... It's a mess. Need to get cleaned up before June!!!

the real reason i show this is so you can see the wood behind the shelfs. It's 3/4 or better cedar(I beleive). Just rough cut. It's antique wood from a barn I beleive. the woman painted it to make it look older. The random weird shit in this house is staggering.

It cracks me up, I have a 42" Sharp Aquos, upconvert DVD player, and some pretty decent speakers downstairs, but my roommate will still watch movies on the 19" cheapo tv upstairs.

Do any of you guys use Satellite Radio? If so do you like it? I'm thinking about getting some for the car, I'm putting 300mi on a week and would like some more variety in the tunes without using FM radio.

A buddy of mine has Sirius in his Jeep.

Personally I love it. Good variety and only lose signal in underpasses and parked under metal roofs.

J

Not sure on if I get it, if I should get Sirius or XM, you know if there are any major differences?

Do any of you guys use Satellite Radio? If so do you like it? I'm thinking about getting some for the car, I'm putting 300mi on a week and would like some more variety in the tunes without using FM radio.

just burn CD's from mp3's.

I do know some people that love it.

Another great free/cheep option, is to use podcasts. You can subscribe and upload whenever you want. I would only use it if I couldn't find what I wanted on the internet. And I have yet to run into that problem.

I'm tried of burning CD... Yea, lame excuse I know.

What I would love to have is a laptop as a carputer with a WLAN card pulling Pandora and streaming that into the stereo...

If a company could link pandora.com into a satellite radio station, people would pay good money for that, myself included. Make it so you set it up on a computer but can pull say, 6 stations off of your in car radio from pandora.

HELL YEAH PANDORA FTW

Vince Shlomi, best known as television's ShamWow! guy, was arrested in Miami last month. For beating up a prostitute. Who allegedly tried to bite his tongue out. Did you know that? Now you do. The Smoking Gun got hold of the police report and Mr. Shlomi's mug shot, and as you can see, he didn't escape unscathed. But neither did she. The facts of the case, briefly, according to the police report:

* Shlomi meets Sasha Harris in a Miami club. They go back to his hotel.

* She propositions him for "straight sex." He pays her a thousand bucks in cash.

* He kisses her.

* She "bit his tongue and would not let go."

* He punches her in her face repeatedly until she lets go.

* He runs down to the hotel lobby.

* They both get arrested.

He's got an '08. I don't like the 2010s. . . . Yet.

Funny thing is, I haven't like any of them since the 94 change, but eventually they all grew on me. I still like my body style the best though.

Every review or article I have read on the 2010's say they addressed any and all complaints with the 2008, especially handling and interior.

it looked much btter in person at the car show than in the pics I have seen. I couldn't look inside well really

I was massively impressed with the new taurus. It looks GREAT compaired to most cars in that scale and range of cost.

Rumor has it they are bringing back the SHO with a twin turbo, too!

I think more of a fact than a rumor.

You are correct sir.

My uncle works at the Taurus/Sable plant in Chicago, so I get the scoop early.

Obama's treasury secretary, Timothy Geithner, touched off a Wall Street rally with a long-awaited plan to help rid banks of their toxic assets. Geithner rolled out a comprehensive overhaul of financial regulations in hopes of avoiding another meltdown. Congressional Democrats worked to put their own imprint on a budget full of ambition but saddled with deficits.

Quoted from http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20090329/ap_on_...obama_ambitions

Sounds to me like financial regulations by the government caused a meltdown. Usually if I have some one work on something and they REALLY fuck it up, I don't let them work on it again. Too bad we can't do the same with the gov.

unfortunately, the people who screwed it up understand the market better than anyone else so we do need them
