Some of us need visual indicators
Thank you, I resemble that remark
I do like the bright blue in the gauges in the pics but I don't know as I would want to live with that all the time
Doug, did you do your CR-Z test drive at night? Seems like those really bright dash colors could be overwhelming at night.

You can always dim the dash display Mark. Once the headlights come on the display is dimmed automatically. Since I drive with headlights on all the time, I have to manually adjust between AM & PM.

Front end is a bit overdone, but other than that, it is a looker.

...when was the last time I said THAT about a Toyota?

Team needs to turn it up tonight. Miller needs to stop flopping around on the ice like a dying fish. Stop taking stupid penalties.

Otherwise, they're done for the season.

Besides, even if Buffalo gets past Philly in round 1, they'll likely face the Caps in round 2. I don't see them getting past the Caps.

Next year they may be primed for a deep run in the playoffs. I hope Pegula opens the purse strings and brings in a legitimate go-to goal scorer and someone who can step in (or someone steps up) to wear the C.

I'm pumped!
You're right, Miller is a flopper. He let in a soft goal in the period last game that cost them big time.
If they get past the flyer I think they can beat anyone in the East. Best record since Feb. 1st.

Just got back from my first shopping trip with the Fit. I LOVE having a wagon again! 4 huge bags of groceries in the hatch area, fit perfect and did not slide around which is good because I just bought stuff for my "kid's" easter basket - yes the 41 year old kid

Bruins are done for the season despite winning the other night. They have problems winning against Montreal in the playoffs
and this year has been no exception. The only reason they won Monday night because of a bonehead play by Montreal's goalie.

At least we have the Celtics to watch, although given how close the 2 games at home were, I don't have a warm fuzzy about them either,
especially when you consider that the Knicks played without 2 of their starters and the Celtics gave up 42 to Stoudemire.

I can get an entire week's worth of grocery shopping in the back of the S, including 3 12-packs of soda and a 12 pack of vitamin water.
