And, finally, Katee Sackhoff does not take a bad picture. Ever, apparently. She is one beautiful woman.
Proof that she is the final Cylon?

I gotta tell ya, I love the environment as much as the next tree-hugging hippie, but DAMN do I want a big shiny muscle car.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
I finally watched Doctor Who 3.09, and wow, damn. That was pretty awesome. I loved loved loved John Smith's dilemma: "You want me to become that?" And it wasn't until the Doctor started peeking through (and the switcheroo at the end) that I realized how impressive David Tennant had been in creating a distinct character in John Smith. The Doctor's immortal punishments gave me chills. And, Vonnie, I'm with you on the awesomeness of "Would anybody have died?" The Doctor brings death wherever he goes. I think it was that moment, as he walked away, that I realized what an amazing character he really is.

DAMN do I want a big shiny muscle car.
...You want to get 10 miles to the gallon? (Seriously! They have got to be gassing up twice a day !) You want a total lack of power steering, ABS brakes, fuel injection, auto door locks? And remember, mushy brakes on a heavy steel-framed car are much less fun than mushy brakes on a car made of tinfoil. I don't even want to know what's in an original AC unit from 1967. And the bugs. I know not all old cars are as un-aerodynamic as the Volkswagon Bus, but man -- let's just say that in my childhood I was scarred by the laws of air-flow physics at highway speed.
My research into muscle cars has revealed to me that what I want is a Geo Prizm that looks like a muscle car. Okay, a Geo Prizm with more than 4 cylinders in its engine.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.
Ooh. There are kit cars to build onto a vw (or some other subcompact) frame. You can get them to look like antique Fords, MGs, Bentleys, all sorts of masqueradey things.
Buffistas could make a fortune and actually buy that island. We make kit cars (yes! and Kitt cars!) that bolt onto Prius frames and look like classic muscle cars. Okay, I know today's cars are unibody and no longer have frames. Still, give me a minute to enjoy the fantasy.

Ok, Nutty.... can I have one of these, then?
Ooh, or I like Bev's idea. Though a near-silent Impala would be kinda freaky.

You want to get 10 miles to the gallon? (Seriously! They have got to be gassing up twice a day !)
If they're lucky, and getting that 10, they're gassing up every 250 or so miles, thanks to the 25 gallon tank it probably has. Allowing for normal variations, probably every 220 or so.

No, I haven't spent hours mapping out small details on Google Maps that avoid any tollways but would probably cause reductions in fuel economy.
The 1969 Le Sabre we drove to California and back in in 1983 or so got 17 mpg averaged over the trip. Which is kind of impressive, considering.

You win. I thought I would totally trump you with my understanding of Bondo, but I always underestimate the computational nerdity of the Ple.

Don't think I don't troll eBay classic car listings. There was a '71 2-door Impala, in avocado green, that was just 10-15 miles away from me! matchy green insides and everything! ...And then the pall of reality fell upon me once more.
