Yeah. While residents of Texas may be Texans, residents of Hawai'i are _not_ "Hawaiians." Native Hawaiians are Hawaiians; the rest of us are residents of Hawai'i. It's a minefield, don't go there.
"Bill is dead." I'm a Hawai'i resident. I sent an email to my representative earlier this AM -- he just wrote back saying simply that. Everyone can relax now.
I first saw the A-class in London in 2000 and instantly wanted one. This baby costs way less than my Fit, and it's a diesel! Where's the link again?
Dude. They've been spraying your packaged deli meats with phages for a few years now. The phages kill bacteria and prevent spoilage, to our benefit. They may soon be used as an alternative to antibiotics.
The enemy of my bacteria is my friend. #bacteriophage
It looks like the hula-hooper spontaneously combusted.
"...in the US."
So there are no McDonalds in Hawai'i and Alaska? Or the territories?
The one time I drove the Cross-Bronx Expressway, I saw a dropped tranny by the side of the road.
@kirby822: Spatchcocking always brings a smile to my face.
@oldredhat: I'm with you. If it doesn't have RPN, I won't use it.
OK. My wife and I turned this episode off after 5 minutes because it was so much worse than the British version. The actors show much less conviction in their roles, and I'm particularly unimpressed with Harvey Keitel. Lt. Hunt can't hold a candle to DCI Hunt.
I hope the changes in direction work for them, but I'll be watching the UK show for now.
Can you say "Nobel Prize"? Repeat it with me. "Nobel Prize".
Woo Hoo!
The Mercedes-Benz S500 LWB was still in use in 2005, as I saw "Il Papa" in it. I took a picture.
@FightingChance: Fix the cigarette lighter.
@Murilee, thanks for posting these - they were fun to collect. I'm glad everyone's enjoying them.
FYI, I couldn't get a good image of the dual bucket seats in the back of the GMC, but they're in there -- bolted down and fully reclined!
As for Irvine, well, it's fairly sedate if you keep your nose clean, but how 'bout I move my family to Honolulu this summer? I bet I can find some fun rides out there...
Cheers!

It was very subtle, but Neil non-answered this very question about a week ago in his journal [journal.neilgaiman.com] .
"...my real question is whether or not we'll finally see a Neil Gaiman DW episode? We're all quietly hoping the idea came up during your dinner [with Steven Moffat] back in March in Bar Shu..."
To which Neil very tactfully answers: "And it was a terrific dinner: they do fantastic dry-fried green beans at Bar Shu (it doesn't sound like it would be fantastic from the menu, but it is)."
Sounds like a definite maybe to me. Whee!
True story: Cousin's husband (EMT) was returning from a patient transfer in an ambulance, and stopped at a disabled vehicle. Parked. Got out to assist.
Meanwhile, a semi pulled up behind the ambulance and that driver got out to assist also. But didn't park. (He claimed the brake was set...)
Semi rolled, pushed ambulance. Both rolled over cousin's husband. Damn shame - he was a nice guy.
Your alma mater, eh? I didn't know you went to Princeton!
