The General
My favorite TV car of all time, the General Lee, is on eBay. Well, a replica of it is, anyways. Amanda won’t let me buy it. π
Every morning, I walk out to my car to find a new one of these. I feel a little bad getting in and driving away, destroying all the spider’s hard work. He’s one persistent little bugger, though. Without fail, a new web is spun the next morning. This cycle has been repeating itself for about…
Three days ago I wrote this: Oh, and at $109.95/month, itβs not even that great a deal. Last month, my combined Time Warner cable/internet and Verizon Voicewing service came to $118.18, including taxes and the extras like the HD DVR. I can guarantee those extra fees are going to total more than $9 when tacked…
Kids, you can’t write comedy better than this. Tim Tielman has come up with a plan to turn the Skyway into a park. Here’s the image and story posted over on Buffalo Rising. Now, let’s think back to all the reasons that people bellow forth as to why the Skyway “needs” to come down: It’s…
Generally, I don’t give much creedence to the accuracy of weather forcasting in Buffalo, but I do keep ForecastFox running down at the bottom of Firefox because it’s much less intrusive than Weatherbug.

His most recent article deals with something of interest to the blogging world – participation inequality, or as we might say, lurkers vs. commentors. In most online communities, 90% of users are lurkers who never contribute, 9% of users contribute a little,…
Let me clarify, I said he could get it if I can get the kitchen remodeled. What’s wrong with that? He said ‘No’ to my kitchen, I said ‘No’ to his car. Besides, who would want to drive that thing in Buffalo? The windows don’t roll up and the doors don’t open!!!
Ahem. And I quote…. “Doors and Windows open and close well”. So π

The buyer should have the suspension examined on that car before finalizing the purchase. I seem to recall that the car was airborne quite a bit. Also, the Stars and Bars design on the car is pretty redneck, don’t you agree?
If the General Lee replica isn’t available, maybe you can pick a Starsky & Hutch 1977(?) Grand Torino replica.
Personally, I think the Batmobile or the AMC Pacer/Stretch Limo (from Wayne’s World 2) were more interesting movie cars than the Dukes’ ride.
