    Peter. When the little girl said her name was "Orelia" you were supposed to say, "Oh, really?"

    And then make her correct you.

    "No, Orelia."

    "Oh, really?"

    ad nauseam.

    Then you would get to know the family; wait for one of the girls to grow up, and then marry into this filthy rich, spoiled clan.

    You are NOT thinking!

    First, thanks for using the term 'moment of inertia' and not 'center of gravity', I don't know why but whenever I hear CoG it bothers me a little.
    Second, dude, we need to hang out, just so I can meet someone who has eight lower extremities. I've never even heard of one much less seen one.

    Peter O, I must thank you very much for this series.


    My wife has decided that rather than a more plebian A4 Avant, she would prefer the Espada for a "mom car".


    When we talk about various future vehicles, she point out that whatever I'm talking about is fine, provided it's in complement to "her Lambo".


    If sometime in 2012 you feel a chill running down your spine around 11:30pm Pacific Daylight Time, it's me, cursing you while weeping over a multicarburated Italian V12.

    That is the lamest story ever. You walked around town and saw a sweet car and asked a kid if it was fun? You talked to another guy that got to drive one and didn't like it as much as the better V12 Ferrari? Is there any news here or did your mum just get you a digital camera and an internet connection?

    It doesn't have to be news, but something noteworthy would be nice. The guy hasn't driven the car or even sat in the back seat. I expect this level of writing on Twitter or Facebook. Sorry, I thought it was a waste.

And you must have missed the time when I reported on a tour of a Peugeot factory in Slovakia as a science fiction story, where aliens in the shape of Loti 49 seduce Peugeot Hungary's PR director and feed her gasoline-flavored biscuits on their way to meet their god, Colin.

    High marks for regular usage, frequent misuse (it's the narrow thing in the kitchen, not the one you flip pancakes with [[mw1.m-w.com]] ), and irrational spelling.


    Bonus points for sounding cool yet mildly offensive.
