So you've got that serial killer look about you? Laughing I drive my friends nuts whenever we are out because I am always pointing people out putting them into 3 categories if they have the right look: rapists, serial killers, or crack heads, etc. Surprised


Yeah. Serial killer is probably the best way to put it. It's more like that eternal whiskey face.

Lee Iacocca pulled Chrysler from the edge of bankruptcy with the introduction of the 'minivan' to the American motoring public.

I believe he is responsible for the K-Car, and the rise in Cocaine importing back then, wasn't he?

Is it just me, or does anyone else notice that people who drive mini vans, tend to be morons who drive like their hands are tied behind their backs? Laughing

The K-Car had its share of space in the body panels but so did other cars. Driving a K-Car with a 4 cylinder engine and manual transmission was quite an experience.

Haha, come to think of it, I often get cut-off by people driving mini-vans on my way to work. More often then not, they're not even looking when they do it!

YES!!! Laughing They slowly cut you off then ride their brakes the entire time they are in front of you. I usually end up having to switch lanes, drive like a maniac and get in front of them. Laughing

Who's Lee Iacocca?


Here is a quote from Lee Iacocca:
"On September 11, 2001, we needed a strong leader more than any other time in our history. We needed a steady hand to guide us out of the ashes. Where was George Bush? He was reading a story about a pet goat to kids in Florida when he heard about the attacks. He kept sitting there for twenty minutes with a baffled look on his face. It’s all on tape. You can see it for yourself. Then, instead of taking the quickest route back to Washington and immediately going on the air to reassure the panicked people of this country, he decided it wasn’t safe to return to the White House. He basically went into hiding for the day—and he told Vice President Dick Cheney to stay put in his bunker. We were all frozen in front of our TVs, scared out of our wits, waiting for our leaders to tell us that we were going to be okay, and there was nobody home. It took Bush a couple of days to get his bearings and devise the right photo op at Ground Zero.

That was George Bush’s moment of truth, and he was paralyzed. And what did he do when he’d regained his composure? He led us down the road to Iraq—a road his own father had considered disastrous when he was President. But Bush didn’t listen to Daddy. He listened to a higher father. He prides himself on being faith based, not reality based. If that doesn’t scare the crap out of you, I don’t know what will."
