that fucking medal of honor question is freaking bs. Look for a flaming pile of dog shit on your front step.

that fucking medal of honor question is freaking bs. Look for a flaming pile of dog shit on your front step.

Why? Because over half of the Medal's of Honor were won against your country? ;) Then again, about 1/4th of them were won against our own country. . .

If I get time later tonight, I'll take a crack at it.

I got the medal of honor question right on my first guess, and then fixed one of my wrong answers, but I'm still working on two of them.

***Snipe has never been more pissed off in his entire life***



I just ranted at GS for about 15 minutes.

I must have said "fuck" about 142 times, more or less.




Oh well... I shouldn't rant.

though I did just waste my entire day.

125 different dash light colors on the 'stang?

125 different dash light colors on the 'stang?

Yeah, it's great!  It's a new feature called "MyColor" that comes with the Interior Upgrade Package on the 2005 Mustang.  It lets you select from 125 different colors...so you can have your dash lights Blue, Red, Green, Yellow, Orange, Purple....Pretty much any shade of any color you can think of!  Looks great too!  I can't wait for mine to get back from Saleen (I have a 2005 Mustang GT on order to get dropped shipped to Saleen in Cali for a performance upgrade...I won't see it for about 6 months though).[/size]

Yeah, I agree.  Although Shelby did help Ford create a new Shelby Cobra prototype with a V-10 engine, it will not be going into production.  No news yet on a Shelby Mustang...but man that would be hot.[/size]

General Motors, in their infinite wisdom, disolved Oldsmobile due to declining sales...they just disolved that part of the company...the OLDEST name in the automobile industry.  Morons.[/size]

Sorry, but the Nova was a Chevrolet, not Oldsmobile. And if they try to bring out another rebadged Toyota as a Nova, they should be burned.

As a proud owner of 3 Novas (1962 Nova Convertible, 1968 Nova SS, 1972 Nova SS), I would love to see something new that captured the spirit of the original.
