We've crossed the pun streams! If this Enterprise isn't quickly curtailed, we might all end up in Deep Space - Nein, we may even end up Lost In Space, on such a Farscape we can never return!

We are now running on a new, and hopefully much-improved, server. In addition we are also on new forum software. Any move entails a lot of technical details and I suspect we will encounter a few issues as the new server goes live. Please be patient with us. It will be worth it! :) Please help by posting all issues here.

Gotta at least keep one pun anchored in cars, though. That's the Tempo of this thread. I can't Sienna-one being impressed without it.

I do agree that we must keep this a General Motors pun thread.
I think I'll go hang out with my Sidekick for a few.

Yep. And then they could go "To Infiniti! And, beyond!"

"We don't know who they are at this point," [Police department spokesman] Graves said, according to CBS News, adding: "They are not cooperating." (emphasis Citizen's)
This is one of my pet peeves. And, a sure sign of propaganda. "They are not cooperating."
How many times have you heard a police spokesperson or press release say so-and-so is not cooperating with the investigation?
The proof is in the alternative. The government could say, "Mr. So-and-so is understandably exercising his right against self-incrimination. A fact that listeners should understand does not in any way reflect badly against him."
This sort of thing bugs me no end. I have personally witnessed police using their perceived position as professionals and experts to give a citizens group the idea that their self-serving policies and procedures are proper because, well, they are the experts. Yet, it is too obvious that, having a certain degree of public confidence, they fail to use their position of leadership to promote rights.
It would be a bullet-proof position. A cop spokesperson could tell the press, "No. We will not be party to violating a suspect's rights. End of discussion. Rights were too expensive to obtain. They were paid for in blood. We will not spit on the graves of the brave men and women who sacrificed to obtain and maintain them. Mr. Jones remained silent during our questioning and asked for his lawyer. That is his right and yours. Next question." Nobody, but nobody could argue credibly with that position if taken by a cop.
Too often, we see police spokesmen at the other end of the spectrum saying, "Mr. Jones is not cooperating with our investigation."

I completely agree with your assessment; the phrase "They are refusing to cooperate" sours my stomach each time I hear or read it.

I would have to get out my Cutlass or LeSabre and fight them, maybe all the way to Malibu or Calais.

Yugo there if you must, but some will Nash their teeth at the Comets.
This thread has been a GM and you're an Adventurer though a bit of a Rambler.
Time for everybody's Continental breakfast with the Dynasty.

Is a Rabbit or Mustang allowed on a Golf course? Think a Cougar would be, but w/o a bib and Tucker.
Walmart parking lots are the Gran Prix of Bumper Cars - no Eclipse intended but anything beyond Mach I gives me Willys.
We should employ Liberty in selecting our guns. You be the Judge, use your own Formula, but don't be a Road Runner - your options will be Limited.

You've never been Mach II? It's nothing, really. A Laser is much faster.
^^^Agree with the above, however one should not be a Minnie Winnie and follow the crowd, but they would be advised to Ford the vast trove of data for whatever they choose prior to purchase.
(EDIT: Hey, it was the best I could do before my first cup of coffee this morning!)
