    Where I live (north Florida) there isn't room for second officer with the laptop, printer & video camera set up in the passenger seat.

    I can do this all day. There is that much proof that you are incorrect. If you would like to continue to look like an absolute fool, feel free.

    An that was just one of hits you'd get if you took a moment & looked around instead of assuming something. You seem to be doing that an awful lot in this thread.

    Protectionism worked for the US from the 1800's all the way up till the 1980's. We got to the moon using protectionism as an economic tool. I'm just saying.

    Mandatory? WTF? I'm sure they are planning on following this up with 1.5 way vidscreens that you can't turn off, only turn down?

    Nope. Regardless of what goes on in the U.S., Thailand is still fucking barbaric by any civilized person's standards.

    Have a nice day.

    So exactly what don't you like about it? It looks nice, it's one of the smoothest riding vehicles I've ever been in. It has great acceleration for a "grocery-go-getter" & it can go *almost* 500 miles on a full tank.

    Do you have any valid complaints or are you just being an "ugly European"?

    Honestly, seeing as you'll never see one on the road over there, all you can complain about are it's looks. Until you guys get rid of the SMART, the Mini Cooper, that ugly ass Porsche SUV and basically everything Ford makes for Europe, you guys really don't have any room to talk.

    Have a nice day.

    They are talking about 4th Edition, so none of this really concerns me.

    I honestly can't believe that as much media attention as that whole rigamarole got that said prosecutors would be able to get away with this kind of mishandling of a federal case.

    As a circumcised male I can't say that I agree with your sig at all.

    Does circumcision cause psychological harm?

    Many men who are circumcised suffer the same psychological effects found in rape victims. A sense of great loss and feelings of anger, distrust, and grief are common among circumcised men who are aware of the functions that the foreskin performs. Problems with intimacy in adult life, long term post-traumatic stress disorder, and feelings of personal powerlessness are also reported by men when discussing their circumcisions.

    That right there is batshit crazy insane.
