Things I'd Like to See Gheorghe Drive

My neighbor just bought one of these.



I'm not really a car guy, and that's a hopelessly impractical vehicle for a suburbanite father of two with a 35-mile commute over major surface roads. Nonetheless, I'm completely jealous.

Although not many of you could go for a ride with me if I got one.

Why not Rhob? You could use that car to drive back and forth to work.

i suppose that's true. i guess i'd be worried about getting mashed by a tahoe that didn't see me.

though those things supposedly have pretty good crash ratings.

i like the way you think, greg.

jim larranaga gets extended at mason - not taking the providence job.

anthony grant, on the other hand.

Perfect size car for you sir...

rob said...

oh, no doubt.

dear abby:

my david ortiz is 0-for-12 this season. should i be worried?

Greg said...

You can front-end park those cars on a curb. That's right, their length is about the same as a standard car's width.

rob said...

eh, my attempted reverse jinx resulted in a single, not the 2-run homer i was hoping for.

rob said...

yeah, i've seen that greg. it's absurd how small they are.

Mark, that was me who posted the Busch thing.

"posted the Busch thing"

yet another filthy innuendo springs from the comments at Gheorghe.

Mark said...

I'm jumping from thread to thread over here. Im so confused.

T.J. said...

Egon says crossing the threads is very bad.

rob said...

the jinx worked! only two innings after it was originally invoked. i'm gonna need to keep working on the equations here.

Travis Buck, a member of my AL squadron, has started the year a very impressive 0 for 14.

There's no chance that Keanu movie Street Kings will be good, right?

Right?

I wish your neighbor the best of luck if he takes that thing out on the Beltway.

What a terrible loss for the Wiz tonite to the hapless Bucks.

The Bengals' Chris Henry is not a very smart guy.
