I love winter driving
Recently moving up to the top of my “What car am I going to buy next?” list was the Subaru Impreza WRX Sport Wagon. I’ve been looking for a car with a little more cargo room without sacrificing performance. I found this:

So, this is the weekend where I finally get to upgrade our internal Lotus QuickPlace environment (a system which I’m responsible for) to the semi-current 6.5.x release. We’re still running the ancient 2.0.8 version, which has been out of support for eons already. I wrote my original plan to upgrade this system to version 3…
Hehehe… Ed Brill is in Singapore this week and posted this photo from the Lotusphere Comes to You conference: I’ve been to Lotusphere in Orlando three times, and I’ve never seen that kind of advertising. Seems like something more out of SEMA than Big Blue.
I love cool water displays, like the fountains at the old Kahunaville. Someday I hope to grovel at the base of the Bellagio. So, naturally, I drooled a little when I saw this video clip about a specially designed waterfall that can scroll text and shapes. Alan’s probably going to get to see it in…
By the way… the Barenaked Ladies/Guster concert was excellent, as expected. It’s not replacing any of my top five, but it was good nonetheless. Big props to Tyler’s Rick Jeanneret-influenced version of Feliz Navidad. Yes, you did have to be there. You didn’t need to have been there to get Steven Page’s recap on the…
North Coast Online shares some hard data about post-Park East Milwaukee. Seems that John Norquist’s silver bullet project has done nothing to halt the declining population in Milwaukee. Craig postulates… So along with Pittsburgh, Cleveland and Baltimore as cities we might do well not to emulate, how about we add Milwaukee to the list? In…
I rail on Governor-elect Spitzer a lot for only doing half his job as Attorney General. But even I have to give him props for cleaning up some of the bad stuff that went on in Wall Street. The New York Stock Exchange was a management mess for a long time. Recently, Ex-NYSE CEO Richard…
Now that I’ve stopped being dizzy……. my friend had an Impreza and liked it well enough. Great for camping and kayaking… not to mention those ski trips where you need the 4wd.
Dude, those Subarus with the turbo 4s are FAST! Just crazy how much they’re squeaking out of those things. Although they are about the same as the Dodge you’ve posted about right? Around 300 hp?
Nice rides and the AWD could help in Buffalo. It’s hilarious seeing people down here in SC getting AWD cars…
The WRX is around 225 HP (non-STI version). The Dodge Caliber R/T is only 173, but the SRT version has yet to be released. I’d like to see Dodge beef up that 2.4L I4 with a turbocharger to get it into the same HP range. Then again, there’s always aftermarket.
