I showed my sixth graders the original ACA segment on Casey a few weeks ago, and we had a great discussion about whether or not Casey's actions were justified. (Right now, we're reading "Warriors Don't Cry," a book about the Little Rock Nine and their quest to integrate Little Rock Central High School in Little Rock, A.R. in 1957.) Needless to say, I had to share this video with them, too. Although there was some squealing, they were all unimpressed with Mr. Bieber's lack of eloquence.
@Sporkotica: I'd agree with that. When I got my new A4 last winter, I took it to the empty helipad at the local beach on the night of the first snow. I threw it around in circles -- or I tried to, at least -- to see how it would respond. (As it was my first all-wheel-drive car, I wasn't sure.) Not only did I have fun, but I was able to remind myself of the importance of maintaining control over my own car...especially when other drivers cannot.
@Daddy Rocket will get the hell out of some groceries: I loved my '07 GTI and was looking at a new one last weekend while car shopping with my aunt (who bought an '11 Jetta SEL Sport Edition, a surprisingly nice car—even with the leatherette!)
The new GTI is attractive, but I was struck by how big the doors are. And, of course, any two-door car with oversized doors always me think of this beast. Now that's a 10Best!
