Synergy moment: today I was at the vet, in the waiting room forever (9:50-10:45 before called in for my 9:50 appt.), and thus watched much of "The View." George's girlfriend on GA was a fill-in-host. She was quite good. Apparently she won a Tony for Spamalot.

Mercury is a waste of resources, but you CAN NOT eliminate Lincoln. First, you have only 2 major brands of limosines - Lincoln and Cadillac. Second, if you eliminate the Masturbator, then ford has nothing else to put their big V8 into other than the F series trucks. Plus, the Masturbator brings a little cache to the rest of the crap because movie stars and rappers drive it.

But couldn't Ford dealers just sell the limousines? Aren't those basically Fleet sales anyways? And the Navigator is just a Ford Expedition, right?

The redesigned Fords don't look that bad (Mustang, Fusion, and Five Hundred), but I wouldn't buy one because Honda and Toyota make better cars for the money.

I don't know how their dealership network works out, but my father bought his Lincoln from the Ford dealer who had Ford, Lincoln and Mercury at the same location.

And NO. It's the same but not the same. No rapper would be caught dead in an Expedition.

So, what you're saying is that Lincoln is classic but the Mercury is whorish?

How many of them have been caught dead in a Navigator?

As an aside, I live 3 blocks away from where Biggie was murdered. In a SUV.

There's already an eerie similarity between the Imperial March and the "daaaaaa, duh-duh daa-daa duhhhhh duh daaa, duh-duh daa-daa duhhhhh duh daaa" march that the Trojan band plays ALL GAME LONG (the one to which UCLA fans have added the following words -- "thisssss, is the only song we know, and we play it all the time")

Ring Question

Is it tacky to wear an anniversary band/engagement ring and another partial anniverary band on top of that or is it ticky-tacky overkill?

it's good your avatar is so masculine and PPNYC has a feminine one, so it's easy to tell who is posting.
