'Underneath'
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.
Emily, my '06 PT Cruiser was from Carmax. It's a really great place to buy a car. They won't sell previously damaged cars, either.
P-C, having bought both used cars and a new car, I really think you're going to get a LOT more value for your dollar if you buy a used car.
Is that right, or do I have them reversed?
Right. (i.e. correct).
I've been using e.g. to mean "for example",
The way my husband remembers this is to say that e.g. is "example given."

I just think, "EGsammple"
e.g. = exempli gratia = for example
i.e. = id est = that is

Eos is in my neighborhood. Make sure you get the shitake mushroom dumplings. The hangar steak is very tasty, and anytime they have something like mussels in green curry - get it.
Slanted Door - make sure you get one of their cool cocktails. I really like their claypot dishes.
One of the titles I just rejected for purchase had an author named Arch Puddington. It makes me giggle.
About Civics. A Seattle friend has a Civic hybrid (not all Civics are hybrid right?), and it has one feature that drives him nuts. As an energy saving feature the engine turns off when stopped at a stoplight or for more than five seconds at a stop sign. Downhill, level, or on a mild uphill slope that is a good thing. The engine has some sort of standby feature that brings it right back on when he presses the accelerators. But in Seattle this often happens at stop lights just before the peak of a very steep hill. Seattle residents, imagine having to restart your car from a dead stop most of the way up Queen Anne or Pill Hill. I imagine that would be unpleasant feature in Pittsburgh, San Francisco and a hell of a lot of other places as well. I suspect that is either a discontinued feature, or that they added some sort of angle sensor.
