Scuba Forum / General / August 2006New car
I BOUGHT A NEW LEXUS RX400H, AND RETURNED TO THE DEALER THE NEXT DAY COMPLAINING THAT I COULDN'T FIGURE OUT HOW THE RADIO WORKED. THE SALESMAN EXPLAINED THAT THE RADIO WAS VOICE ACTIVATED AND THEN HE SAID " NELSON." THE RADIO REPLIED, "RICKEY OR WILLIE?" "WILLIE" HE CONTINUED AND "ON THE ROAD AGAIN" CAME FROM HE SPEAKERS. I DROVE AWAY HAPPY AND FOR THE NEXT FEW DAYS EVERY TIME I WOULD SAY "BEETHOVEN" I'D GET BEAUTIFUL CLASSICAL MUSIC, AND IF I SAID " BEATLES" I'D GET ONE OF THEIR AWESOME SONGS. ONE DAY A COUPLE RAN A RED LIGHT AND NEARLY CREAMED MY NEW CAR, BUT I SWERVED IN TIME TO AVOID THEM. ''a.sholes'' I YELLED. THE FRENCH NATIONAL ANTHEM BEGIN TO PLAY, SUNG BY JANE FONDA AND MICHAEL MOORE, BACKED UP BY JOHN KERRY ON GUITAR, AL GORE ON DRUMS AND BILL CLINTON ON SAX--- DAMN, I LOVE THIS CAR someone sent it to my wife, figured Greg would appreciate it. ;-) > someone sent it to my wife, figured Greg would appreciate it. ;-) Thats pretty good. They managed to make a joke out of people who are a joke. >> someone sent it to my wife, figured Greg would appreciate it. ;-) > > Thats pretty good.

You mean foreign luxury-car driving Republicans that can't even figure out how to use the radio? > I BOUGHT A NEW LEXUS RX400H, AND RETURNED TO THE DEALER THE NEXT DAY > COMPLAINING THAT I COULDN'T FIGURE OUT HOW THE RADIO WORKED. Yep. Pretty funny. I stopped reading at that point, overcome with laughter. http://www.bancroftcaps.com/navydress.htmlOn Wed, 9 Aug 2006 08:21:59 > You mean foreign luxury-car driving Republicans that can't even figure out > how to use the radio? Grace's new Acura has that voice actived and touch screen crap... I don't particularly like the voice activated part of it... Probably because it reminds me too much of those phone menu systems that you get when you call a company these days... I find myself cussing at the car... All in all, I guess I really just don't want to carry on a conversation with my car... With respect to the touch screen, I prefer separate controls for everything... After I get familiar with a car, I find that I can operate the various controls from memory without having to look to see where they are placed... That doesn't really happen when you have to go through a screen menu to do the same operation... Plus, it takes your eyes off the road for a couple of seconds while you navigate the menu... This is not necessarily a good thing... > Yep. Pretty funny. I stopped reading at that point, overcome with > laughter. That's about as likely as D-a-L remaining quiet for very long. He claims to stop reading too....... Curtis > You mean foreign luxury-car driving Republicans that can't even figure out > how to use the radio? Actually, I wasnt doing the blanket bigot thing like you like to do, I was refering to those particular individuals. >> You mean foreign luxury-car driving Republicans that can't even figure >> out >> how to use the radio? > > Actually, I wasnt doing the blanket bigot thing like you like to do, I was > refering to those particular individuals. Are you suggesting that "foreign luxury-car driving Republicans that can't even figure out how to use the radio" includes a large population? Good. Then I rest my case. > Are you suggesting that "foreign luxury-car driving Republicans that can't > even figure out how to use the radio" includes a large population? Good. > Then I rest my case. From a liberal demoncrat who cannot figure out how to dive without a dive computer, that's a classic. > > Are you suggesting that "foreign luxury-car driving Republicans that can't > > even figure out how to use the radio" includes a large population?

BING... >> Are you suggesting that "foreign luxury-car driving Republicans that >> can't even figure out how to use the radio" includes a large population? >> Good.

Doing 4-5 dives a day off a boat in a remote location with varying heretofore-unkown profiles? I think I'll stick with the computer. > Doing 4-5 dives a day off a boat in a remote location with varying > heretofore-unkown profiles? I think I'll stick with the computer. Of course. If you knew what you were doing, you wouldnt need one. It's all really simple, which is why it must escape the lawyers brain, which is progranned to make everything as un-natural and complicated as possible. But, then again, you might just be looking for a good reason to file suit. > > Are you suggesting that "foreign luxury-car driving Republicans that can't > > even figure out how to use the radio" includes a large population?

"demoncrat"... who knew? :-) > I BOUGHT A NEW LEXUS RX400H, AND RETURNED TO THE DEALER THE NEXT DAY > COMPLAINING THAT I COULDN'T FIGURE OUT HOW THE RADIO WORKED.
