Orb's goes back tail- female to Ruffian's dam through her half sister Laughter who was a daughter of Bold Ruler. The Phipps & Janneys co-bred & co-own Orb.

The Lokes is clever, but not really smart. Pumpkin is both, it is scary.

FM transmitters are all crap

I know some people have good results from them in dense markets, but I've not yet found an LA salesperson with personal successful experience with one, which cracks me up. But, most places aren't dense markets, so they are a great idea. Living in LA was my decision.

Ooh, Abraham "Buffy" Lincoln is on. I really only want the airborne horse scene. I hope I don't miss it.

IM3 the same?

I didn't actually catch him in flagrante elevato, but shots with too much room for frank evaluation did him no favours. And then he'd be back face to face with Gwyneth Paltrow, and it'd be staged like he had a few inches on her, which, not really.

What's Bruno Mars' most famous song? For some reason I have a blank space in my head where all his facts go.

Unrelatedly I got called "sir" again today.

Millionaire? Fuck You?

Walnut brain.

Yeah.

I am so calling it this from now on.

What about steering wheels though? What do cars without steering wheels use? Joysticks?

Wii controller.

What's Bruno Mars' most famous song? For some reason I have a blank space in my head where all his facts go.

I'd say "Just The Way You Are", though that may simply be because its my favourite of his songs.

But Bruno Mars doesn't sing Fuck You, right? None of the other titles ring a bell--if they've advertised soap or appeared on Grey's, I might know them from there, but not as songs in their own rights, with like names and shit.

Speaking of Grey's--I wonder if Shonda's love of JDM contributed any to casting his SO on it last episode?

But Bruno Mars doesn't sing Fuck You, right?

Oooh, no. He didn't. He wrote it. I heard him singing a snippet on Graham Norton. And mostly I know the song from Patrick Stump covered it in a medley. So I think of it as Bruno Mars' but not according to radio, it's not. Also, it's Billionaire, not Millionaire. I am so '80s...

He did actually put out Locked Out of Heaven (the, hey, that totally sounds like The Police song). Maybe there was an awards show where he did this song and Sting came out?

Apparently I know almost nothing about Bruno Mars when it comes to his radio play. I do know he's ridiculously talented. But I can't always say why without a bit of Googling.

eta: Okay, ridic talented and also playing a radio show in LA next weekend with a ton of bands including one I crazy love. Hmmm.

Well, I'm not replacing it with nothing--what's a better baseline?

For mass market car comparisons, I'd go the big sellers in the US, those are the Honda Accord Toyota Camry, Ford Fusion, and Toyota Corolla, all of which do keyless entry and keyless start.

VW has been trying to grab market share in the US and has been on the uptick, but are still much lower in volume that the other manufacturers. The Jetta is also an odd car because while it is the VW volume leader in the US is far behind the Golf in most other markets.

all of which do keyless entry and keyless start.

As does the Jetta. What is the criteria that gives them a pass?

There should be a way to set a baseline apart from highest sales. I mean, McDonald's has probably the highest fast food sales but I am going to personally baseline against In N Out.

And, even with my weird analogy, I still think that what the baseline offers should be most of the things that I think are awesome. I even say this driving a car that is a wolf in Civic clothing. I just can't afford the bail money and insurance costs of unsubtle vroom. Plus I like feeling stealth. Probably my car does not pass my own tests. Actually, I am pretty sure it won't.

ita !, do you know this one? I am listening to more Bruno Mars tonight than I have in my entire life. I'm becoming a fan.
