College basketball? That's just something kids do before joining the NBA, right?

Sweet *** Amare mix I found. It's when he dominated the Hawks.

Re: The Off-Topic Thread.
What do you do for a living Aylwin? If you don't mind me asking.
I hope no one thinks I'm crazy for wanting a Smart Car. I'm so hooked on getting one.

Re: The Off-Topic Thread.
Until recently, I was a telecoms engineer. I guess I still am but my job title now says I'm a manager. That means all I do all day is attend meetings and answer emails. I miss being a productive member of society but I can't complain.
By the way, I admire people who buy environmentally friendly cars. In Europe, small cars are very popular due to cheaper cost of ownership and they're better for the environment. Diesel engine cars are also popular. Not as "cool" as gasoline engine cars but diesel fuel costs less, you get more kilometers per liter and the emissions are apparently lower compared to gasoline.

I guess you'll live with that. I'm sure your paycheck helps. lol
Really? Diesel? Maybe I'm thinking the wrong diesel, but diesel fuel is expensive here.
With how crowd California is becoming, a small, fuel efficient car is really what I need.

There's 3 types of automobile fuel here. Regular unleaded gasoline, premium unleaded gasoline (higher octane level) and diesel. Diesel is what all the big trucks use and it's alway cheaper than gasoline. It used to be significantly cheaper but with the high fuel prices nowadays the difference isn't that big anymore. But at least it's still cheaper.
