something that made me giggle a little.


This morning I was in the gym in our complex, and therefore unavoidably watching CNBC and them talk about the 'Swine' as well as Chrysler going under...finally President Obama gets up to talk and this part of his speech made me giggle a little...


"For too long," Obama said at the White House, "Chrysler moved too slowly to adapt to the future, designing and building cars that were less popular, less reliable and less fuel efficient than foreign competitors."


...because it's like DUH. Does this bankruptcy really come as a surprise to anyone my age? Sure it's an American legend, but the cars are hideous and not practical whatsoever...they make the PT Cruiser for goodness sakes! This was bound to happen in this economy.


See...I watch the news.

Ever notice that the only people that drive PT Cruisers are old women? Enough said.

we got a pt cruiser as a rental car once. we we're so humiliated that whoever was driving would roll down the passenger window at stoplights times just to embarrass the passenger. and you really would get so embarrassed and duck until the window was up again.
