| I-210, Pasadena to Big Bear | 21 Dec 2007 06:09 GMT | 7 |
I seem to remember hearing that the 210 went straight through to the 30 now, but google and mapquest show a silly jog up the 15 in Fontana and back down again, apparently bypassing maybe 8 miles of unfinished 210. Anybody know the truth?

| CA-210 mis-signed | 20 Dec 2007 09:07 GMT | 12 |
So CA-210 has been open from Sylmar to Redlands for a few months now, and at I-215 the signage is for 210 West, Pasadena/30 East, Redlands. Not older signs, either. These are definitely new signs. I saw them this weekend while taking my parents to Souplantation down in San Berdu. ...

| At least MFFY's make sense! | 20 Dec 2007 03:59 GMT | 12 |
We all decry the actions of the MFFY (Me First, F... You) because they are so self-serviing, but at least they are understandable. The MFFY wants to get where he(/she)'s going first, without any concern for how that impacts others.

| Russian Tunnel of Death | 20 Dec 2007 03:49 GMT | 5 |
Found on YouTube after seeing an attached .wmv file sent in e-mail. The claim is that it is from one day of filming. Longest in-city tunnel in Europe, with leaks...and see the nasty effects of -38 temp's.

Just had the misfortune of watching a GEICO commercial and I have to ask: doesn't Peter Frampton have enough money with put having to shill for a crappy auto insurance company? BTW, the ad or Frampton's appearance in it will not influence my decision on car insurance; I

What is the primary (read as most important and/or most effective) safety system in a modern car? Consider ABS, airbacks, AWD, traction control, and others of course. Only 1 right answer, of course.

| How TV Advertising Reinforces the MFFY Attitude | 19 Dec 2007 23:29 GMT | 20 |
I just saw an Audi commercial which shows women giving their husbands a chunk of asphalt with a big ribbon and bow wrapped around it. The voice-over urges us to "give them the power to own the road." Cut to several scenes of Audi vehicles driving down mostly empty roads

| A Hard One to Classify | 19 Dec 2007 22:33 GMT | 32 |
This one is an interesting mixture: we have a stupid geezer making poor decisions, we have a teenage male driver and multiple-DUI-offender driving a high-powered car (BMW M3) and making poor decisions, and now they're BOTH going down.

So I'm out walking, approaching a street with a 4-way stop sign. As I get ready to cross, there are two vehicles in sight: one is just pulling away from the stop sign, the second is a couple of car lengths behind the first and rolling towards the stop sign. I wait until the
