Charlemagne Video
You may remember that a while ago I informed you of the existence of a heavy metal concept album about Charlemagne starring none other than Saruman/Count Dooku/Christopher Lee.
Anyways, I have recently learned that there was a music video made.
I'm not sure that words can accurately express how happy this video makes me.

Construction.
I am quite happy and proud of myself for turning a pile of parts into a working whatsit. With no previous experience of putting that variety of whatsit together before. And, frankly, never even having a full complement of whatsit parts before 2 hours ago.

The 12 Disasters of Chrismas
'12. Massive earthquakes and other natural disasters threaten to destroy the world during the holidays. Starring: Ed Quinn, Magda Apanowicz, Holly Elissa, Ryan Grantham, Scarlett Bruns, Donnely Rhodes. Director: Stephen R. Monroe.
Syfy Saturday Movie from Dec 8.
Figured it was about time that I reviewed one of these guys again. I've got this one, and the one from the week before on the DVR.
That one had Jonas Quinn. This one has Nathan Stark, Doc Cottle, and the hot girl from Caprica. Hoping for some quality crotchetiness from Doc Cottle.
Although, it looks like Doc Cottle's going for the crazy old man in this one, rather than the crotchety old man which he excels at so well. But we're only a little bit into the movie, so hopefully there'll be time for him to fix that.
Looks like Magda (the hot one from Caprica) is gonna be the main character in this one... And her dad is Nathan Stark. And her grandpa is Doc Cottle. She's got quite the awesome pedigree to live up to.
That, and her friend just got skooshed by a car.
Apparently the Mayans wrote the song about the 12 Days of Christmas concerning the end of the world. Something about the conquistadors. But I wasn't really paying attention. And Magda is "the chosen one". And apparently of Mayan ancestry. Or something.
Also, apparently they all live in the town of Calvary. And Magda's name is "Jacey". Pronounced "J C". Hmmmm... Wonder what they could be going for with that. So subtle and clever, these writers are...
Also, throughout this movie, it seems that they have paid for a shattering animation. So, anything that gets damaged in any sort of way seems to shatter. Including, apparently Donnely Rhodes. Damn you Doc Cottle, being not immune to becoming a Docsicle.
And, true to form, I have had nothing to say for the last half hour or so. Too busy futzing about on the internet. And with a lack of Doc Cottle, my interest has waned some.
Also, just called Stark getting shot before it happened. But probably wasn't all that hard to figure out. But either way, I'm awesome. But, in other news, I'm going to start another sentence with but. But I have nothing else to say in this paragraph. But you should realize that really isn't gonna stop me from talking. Butt.
And they got an incineration effect as well. Must have been a package deal with the shattering from earlier.
Oh, good. Now J.C. needs to climb the rock that she was unable to climb at the beginning of the movie. In order to save the world. Or some shit. Seems like she should have just walked up the back side of the face, rather than climbing it in her street shoes. But, since this movie is close to being finished, she managed it. Although that would have been a pretty sweet ending.
Also, they seem to have covered the "person is fireproof due to special abilities, but her clothes aren't". But nary a blurred scifi boob to be seen. Alas.
And I'm relatively certain that the dog saved the world. The problems started, the dog ran away; the problems ended, the dog came back. I think this movie was just to distract humanity from the true heroics of the dog. It didn't want to become famous for its role in saving the world, so it funded the movie to take all the attention away.

One wonders why the designers of the Super Star Destroyer decided to make it so that it would turn on the engines and turn left when the bridge is destroyed.
Also, why couldn't they make Vader's helmet go together/come apart the same way in Episode 3 as it did in 6? (Specifically the under the chin piece)

But still... seems like I'm forgetting something...

Oh, yeah!
How about a man and his space suit going Mach 1.24 without the aid of any sort of vehicle. Felix Baumgartner, you are one crazy, crazy man.
For those of you that missed it, here's the highlight reel.

So, needless to say, I'm not rooting for that guy.

I'm gonna go ahead and assume that the creepy old guy is M.C. Gainey. Just seems like an old dude sort of name.
Anyways, if you've ever wanted to see a half naked Danny Trejo ghost wrestle and creepy old mustached guy ghost, this is definitely the movie for you. If you have no interest in that, or value your time, this certainly isn't.

Espargaro.
The name of a pair of Spanish motorcycle racing brothers, Aleix (MotoGP) and Pol (Moto2). Hearing the announcer attempt to pronounce the name with his heavy southern accent is pretty hilarious. He never manages the same one twice. And never manages Ess-par-gar-oh. Usually is off by a number of syllables.

Random cameo by Dr. Lee from Stargate. This time playing the role of random Olympics registrar guy. A little less bald than he is in later life. Obviously. Because it'd be weird if he were balder in this one.
And I'm pretty sure the West German guy was also on Stargate, but I'm drawing a blank on his character's name. I think it was the episode with Merrin, and the advanced Naquadah generator.
This Junior guy has an immensely square head. The haircut/hairline isn't really doing him any favors.
Is it bad that I'm rooting for the Swiss team?
Also, one of the main characters is from that Alphas TV show on Syfy. But that show is terrible. So we won't be mentioning that...

Produced by The Asylum. So you know what that means...
They are marveling about the size of this shark. Which they don't show for a while. But then it turns out to be about 3 feet long. Uh... OK...
It is movies like this that make me wonder why I subject myself to this particular brand of torture...
This movie needs to stop reusing the same footage over again. Also, stop with the jump cuts.
In other news: worst minefield ever.

Olympic Race Walking Revisited
They are all cheating. Every single effing one of them.
From the footage, especially the slow-motion stuff, it is clear that every single one of them has both feet off the ground on every stride.
This sport is bullshit. It does not deserve to be in the Olympics
I just read that they made a guy give his cycling medal back from the 96 Olympics or something like that. Because he was using performance enhancing drugs. But, while he was competing, he actually followed the damn rules. So, if he loses his medal, every damn race walker deserves to give up their medal.

This movie is actually pretty thoroughly fantastic.
I'm rather thoroughly amused by the fact that the main character calls his machine the FLDSMDFR, as in, he refers to it with that acronym, not the actual name. A man after my own heart.
Also, Mr. T is hilarious. The monkey is pretty dang fantastic as well.
And during the dramatic conclusion, while sneaking around, the main character just did a completely unnecessary forward roll. And needlessly narrates everything he does. Truly a man after my own heart.
In other news, apparently according to one reviewer: "This film wasn't made for you, or me. It was made for dangerously, easily distracted 9-year-olds." Great! Glad that I'm equivalent to a 9-year old. And not just any one, but a dangerously, easily distracted one. That is among the best news I've heard all day.

Alas poor Eureka. We knew him well.
Or it. Or them. Or whatever.
Anyways, series finale for Eureka. Had a good run, but sad to see it go. Looks like the Syfy Channel is now only good for Warehouse 13 and the occasional shitty Sci Fi movie.
I have my hopes, which I believe that I've mentioned in an earlier post at some point.
Interesting that they got a new stock shot showing the top of the GD building. After 5 or 6 years of using variations of the front of the building, I thought it was kinda cool that they got a new one. Although you'd have figured if they spend the money on the new stock shot, they'd use it more than the once. But, alas. Unless they overdo it in this one episode. Which would be mildly hilarious.
Random cameo from that Grant guy from Mythbusters.
Good use of the term "gruntled". Or even "fully gruntled". Way to go Wesley Crusher.
Also, nice to see Lojack the dog returning. And also the good Dr. Taggart.
And very glad the last scene was what it was; a call back to the first episode of them passing themselves in the rain.
Unfortunately no Stark though. Although that really would have been a stretch.

Normally in these disaster movies (especially the Bad Syfy Variety), the main character is actively trying to stop the apocalypse or whatever the problem of the week is.
In this one, it is really just a guy running away from it. Similar to the movie's blockbuster namesake. Although the main character in this one is significantly less famous than John Cusack. But has an intensely more fantastic name. Using approximately half the world's quota of vowels. The only thing I recognize this guy from is that JAG show. Not the main character, but his slightly chubby sidekick. Good that he got hisself a starring role, i guess.
Also, they just used some stock footage of the Thunderbirds when they were trying to show some fighter aircraft attacking the glacier.
And the same pilot in-cockpit footage for about 5 different airplanes.

Pink Floyd: The Wall
Why did they have Bob Geldof singing as Pink?
They really just shoulda stuck with Roger Waters for it all. Thankfully they used him for all the bits where Pink isn't singing on stage or whatever. I much prefer Waters' voice. Although, I prefer Gilmour's voice to Waters, but unfortunately, that proverbial ship has sailed under a bridge too far.

NASCAR vs. Formula 1
In today's race, the pace car is a pickup truck.
In next week's Formula 1 European Grand Prix, it'll be a $250,000 supercar.
In next week's Formula 1 European Grand Prix, it'll be a $250,000 supercar.
24 Hours of Le Mans
After a late spin/crash by McNish in the #2, the #1 car wins it by just over a lap.
A late crash by the #3 car puts it in 5th place. (2nd time that car crashed into the same barriers this race)
So, Audi gets 1, 2, 3, and 5, with the Rebellion Racing in #4.

24 Hours of Le Mans
Well, looks like and Audi is gonna win.
Apparently Ferraris and Prototypes don't get along all that well. Last year, both McNish and Rockenfeller in Audis had pretty spectacular crashes with Ferraris. This year Davidson in one of the Toyotas had a Ferrari turn in on it. So, about 5 hours in, one of the Toyotas out of the race.
That led to an hour of full-course caution. At the end of which Nakajima in the other Toyota basically hip-checked the Deltawing into a wall, putting it into the wall and out of the race. The Toyota then spent a fair amount of time in the pits, ran a few laps, then spent a bunch more time in the pits, ran a few laps, etc. And then finally retired.
So, of the cars discussed in my last post, only the 4 Audis are still in it. Now the only question is can the #3 Audi make up a few laps on the Rebellion Racing car, and make it an Audi 1-2-3-4. The #3 went into a wall very early in the race, and went about 7 laps down. Which is pretty damned impressive since it went about a lap down limping around the course, after tearing a bunch of body work off the front, and driving 5 or so miles with the right front suspension totally destroyed, and only hanging on by a thread. So, basically, since a lap is about 3 and a half minutes, that means the Audi team replaced the entire front end of a car in about 20 minutes. Pretty damned impressive.
Last year's winner, the #1 Audi in the lead, and only really relinquishing it every so often on the pit-stop rotations.
Now, I guess the most interesting battle is going to be whether it is the #1 or #2 Audi that wins. #1 being the defending champions, #2 being the team with a combined 14 Le Mans wins among the 3 drivers.
8 and a half hours to go. Even though it actually finished about an hour ago.

24 Hours of Le Mans
Unsure of whether to root for the Audis or the Toyotas.
The Toyotas would be good candidates due to the under-dog-ness. Seeing as how Audi has won 10 of the last 12 years. And they're running petrol rather than diesel. And it'd be nice to see a gasoline engine win after being dominated by diesel for so long.
The Audis on the other hand just look damned cool. And they're running a flywheel hybrid system, rather than Toyota's battery system.
But, four hours in, it looks like there's actually a decent race going. A few early problems for some of the Audis have put the Toyotas into 2nd and 3rd, with the pole-sitting Audi not having given up that position yet.
Also, wouldn't mind seeing that Deltawing thing do well, even though it can't technically win. It just looks so dang wacky.

Anyways, why would you want to hide the fact that you are getting something named as cool as "Extreme LaserComb". Who gives a damn if it actually works, or implies that you're losing your hair, or whatever.

Didn't realize that Major Penalties didn't stop once the team scored.
This went from a pretty evenly matched game to a stomping in the course of 5 minutes. Let's see if the Devils can pull it out. Guess they're lucky it is still the first period.
Also, while Dustin Brown may have scored 2 goals in a matter of moments, he does have a rather unimpressive beard.

Seems that they might be trying to get the same sort of interaction between Carter and Zane that they had with Carter and Stark.
Although I hope that Stark does at least get a cameo at some point in the last season.
Also, hoping that they manage to tie in the Carter And Zoe Seeing Themselves Leaving Eureka thing from the first episode. That'd be a nice way to bookend the series.

I was left with the impression that due to the very precarious nature of the blue people's initial victory, there was little stopping the humans from coming back at some later date and demolishing the planet with superior firepower.
Or just destroying everything from orbit. Since its really just the rock stuff they're looking for, and not really interested in the ecosystem.

Space Twister
'12. Devastating cyclones threaten to destroy the Earth. Starring: Erica Cerra, Mitch Pileggi, Leah Cairns. From Canada.
Syfy Saturday Movie from 4/28.
Jo Lupo makes a pretty hot scientist/nerd. In general, I'm not a fan of glasses with the relatively thick black frames (i.e., hipster glasses), but she can rock them pretty well.
Also, the nerd-in-disguise high school kid is bigger than the football player. The NID being who looks to be preordained to be the main character hero guy. NID being an acronym for this guy's name, and not the randomly acronymed agency or whatever it is from Stargate SG1. And this one is probably less evil. Or infiltrated by evil. Or whatever that plot line was. Or actually plot lines. Because there were quite a few of them. And most of them involved that Agent Malcolm Barrett guy who kept trying to get into Sam Carter's pants.
And by bigger than the football player, I mean he's easily a foot taller. Can't tell much about their relative physiques due to them all wearing relatively bulky baggy clothing.
And Mitch Pileggi's character (or should I say Col Caldwell) is named Gunter. Which is kinda funny. Would be improved with an umlaut though. Although, nothing's saying that he doesn't have that umlaut in his name and random "State Hydro" lady just sucks at pronouncing germanically awesome names. Also, he's wearing overalls.
Also NID's teacher dad has a pretty awesome rapist van. Although he decided to go a little incognito, going with the dark red/maroon, rather than the ever-popular white.
And he's currently rocking the hoody/vest combination. Which I probably would have mocked a few weeks ago. Before I ended up doing it myself, and discovering it worked pretty well. Although he's gone for the puffy vest or down or whatever. And mine was more of a fleece.
He has the worst tires in the history of time. He's on gravel. Spinning his tires because he's stuck. But no gravel is moving. At all. So, either, his car can levitate, which is awesome, or his tires just massively lack traction. Based on the beat-up, rapist look of his van, I'm leaning towards terrible tires, and not an amazing technological innovation.
Wherever this supposedly takes place, it seems to have rather inconsistent weather. Because there are randomly green areas with deciduous trees and what not, and others completely covered in snow. Also, I'm wondering if any of my readers are going to call me on the fact that I'm complaining about inconsistent weather in a movie named after a weather phenomenon with extra extra-terrestrialness added. But that would involve my readers actually reading this far into my review. Which I'm not sure will occur. Although, I have been rather lax about posting recently, so if my bloggers are missing this blog, then there may be a chance that they will continue reading further than they might otherwise. But who knows. Anyways, I'll continue typing, as this movie is only about half done, and perhaps this paragraph of doubting my readers will be buried about halfway through a very lengthy review, and thus my readers will be discouraged and not get this far in the review.
Man, I am either really cynical or really pessimistic about my readers.
In other news, I have a small strawberry rhubarb pie. Its pretty awesome.
Although my plan will likely fail. Because I usually start zoning out about halfway through the movie and then stop typing. And did I mention that I have strawberry rhubarb pie?
Also, I am sucking at typing today. Making a shit ton of typos that I'm having to go back and fix. Glad that the red squigglies appear. Although, not so good when I add random bits and bobs to words. And probably not a good thing that I can't remember what the hell random word bits and bobs are called. I keep thinking "clauses" but those are distinctly parts of sentences, and not words.
Also, since I haven't blogged about bodily functions lately, I am terrifically flatulent. As in terrific volume of. Because it is not so terrific in other ways.
In case you were wondering, this is apparently called Space Twister due to the fact that NID has invented some sort of device that proves the existence of some variety of sub-atomic particles. That can only exist on gas giants. Or something like that. And this discovery is seemingly linked to the fact that Jupiter's Big Red Spot has disappeared. Or whatever that big red spot is called.
Also, this gif from Wikipedia is pretty damn mesmerizing:
Which will probably seriously inhibit my reviewing, as I stare at this, rather than continue to watch the movie. Let us see how this turns out.
Also, this movie needs more Erica Cerra.
And shortly after I type that, it appears that she just got herself blowed up. So, let me amend my previous statement: This movie needs more Robo-Erica Cerra.
And now I'm out of pie. So, I guess it looks like I'm back to paying attention. But unfortunately for this review, it looks like the movie's almost over.
Frankly, with the title, I was hoping that aliens were gonna be involved somehow. Because that strikes me as a rather ridiculous and convoluted attack scheme.
And now Col Caldwell as joined Jo in BlowedUpsVille. Along with all the subatomic particles that were the cause of this movie in the first place. But he did survive until the last 5 minutes or so. So, I guess he can be proud of that.

I was browsing through the channels, and saw "Viking Wilderness" right next to "World's Dumbest Drivers".
And when I first read it, I thought that there was a show called "Viking Dumbass". I was intrigued

So, the track is green, which means a lot of grip. And as the tires warm up, they lose grip.
Uh...
That is completely the opposite of what I expected based on my following of F1. Intriguing...

Random Place That Just Popped Into My Head
Bingen.
Well technically, it was Hildegard of Bingen that randomly popped into my head. But since I don't really have a precedent for a "Random Person That Just Popped Into My Head", I decided to go with the related place.

Jules Verne's The Mysterious Island
'12. Stranded on a dangerous island, survivors turn to Capt. Nemo for a way to excape. Jules Verne's The Mysterious Island. Starring: Gina Holden, Lochlyn Munro, Pruitt Taylor Vince, Susie Abromeit, Mark Sheppard, W. Morgan Sheppard. Director: Mark Sheppard.
Syfy Saturday movie from yesterday.
Since my last review was met with such negative reviews, I was tempted to just leave this one off with the previous sentence.
But, given the opportunity to watch a movie starring Badger, directed by Badger, I felt that I should at least say something about that fact.
Although, there is an intense distressing lack of Badger in this. A fair amount of his dad, but not actually Badger himself. Although, hilariously enough, Badger plays the role of young Captain Nemo (for only a very short few scenes), while Badger's dad plays the older Captain Nemo.
Also, I was thinking that Gina Holden played Zoe on Firefly, so it would be a Firefly reunion. But that was actually Gina Torres. Gina Holden was the person who played that Dale chick in that short-lived Flash Gordon show. In the immortal words of Bill Nye, "Now you know."
Also, Lochlyn Munro is a pretty dang cool name.
And if you ever wanted to watch a movie involving ghillie suit monsters, this is the one for you.
In other news, I seem to remember watching a "Mysterious Island" movie a while back that involved Captain Picard as Captain Nemo. I think that one was better. But both were pretty dang forgettable.

Dénouemont.

Collision Earth
'12. A top-secret military weapon must destroy the planet Mercury before it crashes into Earth. Starring: Kirk Acevedo, Dianne Farr. Director: Paul Ziller. From Canada.
Syfy Saturday movie from 1/14.
Kirk Acevedo, that name sounds familiar. Yup. Just like I thought, its that guy from Fringe. Charlie or whatever. The guy who was killed off in the original universe, and was infected by those worm thingies in the alternate one.
And now he seems to have been the guy in charge of some anti-asteroid whatsit. Which just lost funding. But luckily, it was right before it went online. So, it'll definitely come into play later. Because how many top-secret military weapons to destroy planet Mercuries can there actually be? I'm guessing just the one.
Although I would be much happier if it were named something other than "Project 7". Which is a pretty darn stupid name. I think I'd involve monkeys. But then again, when don't I involve monkeys if at all possible?
And somehow this spacecraft thing has artificial gravity. Which they turn off for entering Mercury's orbit. And it seems that Charlie's female of choice is on this spacecraft. Nautilus or something. And she seems to take off her seatbelts whenever she turns off the gravity. Or, actually, she just takes them off or puts them back on at rather random intervals. Probably because she wants something to do with her time. Also, I may just be looking for faults with this movie, but it does very much look like the actors are reading cue cards off the screen.
Oh, good. Now we get the mandatory conspiracy theorist characters. One who seems to be Neil Patrick Harris Gone Wrong. Or perhaps Poor-Man's Neil Patrick Harris. Or maybe even Poor-Man's Neil Patrick Harris Gone Wrong. And if he proceeds to be a more major character, he might even get himself a Dan's Daily Drivel Trademarked Acronym Name Thing.
Also, magnetar is a rather ridiculous name. Something about a star going super magnetic. Either that, or it is just a stupid word for a plot point. Probably a real thing, but I'm far too lazy to look it up for myself.
Also, now there are meteors or meteorites. Whichever are the ones that actually reach the ground. I never can remember. And true to Bad Sci Fi Movie Science, they seem to have guidance systems to chase after characters. Or more accurately Charlie and PMNPHGW and their respective compatriots.
Well, there you go. Acronymed. Now I wonder if he'll be important enough to warrant this amazing honor I have just bestowed on him.
Also, just saw a commercial for a Little Caesar's Pizza. Wasn't even sure that they still existed. Which reminds me. I should probably go track down something dinner related.
Victoria, we need to get a hold of Mission Ops.
Also, astronauts pronounce words very strangely. Oregon. Mercury. And that's just one conversation. I would try to phonetically spell out how they pronounce it, but that is far more effort than it is worth. In other news, these astronauts are the same ones I accused of reading cue cards earlier. So it is distinctly possible that they are reading it, and not thinking about what they are actually reading.
And now there apparently isn't enough power in the reverse thrusters. This being a Sci Fi movie, I'd have to suggest that they reverse the polarity. But instead they're reducing power. Which is somehow necessary for turning around. I think they would have been more successful reversing the polarity.
But luckily for Ms. Whatserface, they completed the maneuver before Pilot Dude died. Oh, Ms. Whatserface is Charlie's female of choice referenced earlier. Apparently his wife. Thanks Charlie, for making that relationship clear right as I am typing a sentence about her.
And now to add to the guided meteor(ite)s apparently a ridiculous amount of magnetic whosawhatsit is following Charlie around. Affecting stuff mere feet from his car, without affecting the car itself.
Also, I really despise that Geico commercial with the pig who goes "whee" (which in fact is a noise, not actually a euphemism for peeing, like you'd probably expect from this blog. Because we're classy like that here at Dan's Daily Drivel). They really shouldn't have brought it back for another one. Twas annoying in the first one, when the character was actually related to the topic at hand. Now, they're moving the character to another situation entirely, and its damned annoying. So, let that be a lesson to you, Geico. Your lizard thing is annoying enough. The pig is worse. Oh, and don't even get me started on that caveman...
This movie has the weirdest laws of electromagnetism.
You have to recalculate the planet's trajectory. Based on magnetism.
You're not factoring in the magnetism. You have to recalculate.
Oh, good. Now in addition to character-seeking meteor(ite)s, we have magnetic field seeking Mercuries. Or, to be precise, only one of those. But its still a pretty dang big one of those. So, it could count for double. Maybe even triple.
And now Mercury is stealing all of Seattle's cars. Although there weren't any particularly nice ones. I think I'd have gone for Maranello. But I'm not a super-magnetized planet. So, what do I really know.
And a flaming car just dropped on some guy. Where did the car come from? Why was it on fire? Who the hell knows. It was dramatically convenient for it do do so and be so. So it did and was.
And it appears that CaptainAcronym survived.
Although one wonders how Whatserface is gonna get back to earth, since I'm relatively certain her computer told her that her heat shield thing was compromised earlier. So, good luck with that whole reentry of the Earth's atmosphere thing.
Which is probably why they ended the movie before showing that.

24 Hours at Daytona
Just saw a dude change the front brakes on a car in less than 2 minutes. That's pretty damn impressive.
Well, actually, I watched the one dude change the right front, but his compatriot was changing the left front in a similar sort of time.

As I sit here waiting for enough of Chuck to record so as I can watch it and fast forward through all the commercials, I'm watching the beginning of this movie.
Which reminds me that I need to re-watch these movies.
And probably reread the books again, too.

Finally Getting around to watching the movie. About half way through.
And I think the most important question is:
What the hell is up with the geology on Pandora? How does crap like that even form?
They better discuss it in the second half.

The Post In Which I Attempt To Entice The Readers of Trevor's Blog To Read My Blog
Trevor's blog has the little wotsit to the side that shows recent posts from blogs he follows. Including this one. I have no idea if I've mentioned this before. But, if I have, here it is again.
I first noticed this about the time of my Underpants post. Which amused me greatly.
So, that brings me to my point. I'm wondering if I could entice any of his readers to read my blog.
Which I so cleverly and subtly hinted at with my title.
So, does anyone actually think any of those that are not already familiar with my blog will stop by? And comment?
I'm doubtful.

Car Dealership
Saw a car the other day with one of those little plates that states the dealership where it was bought.
From Don Davis.
I didn't know General Hammond sold cars. I realize he generally went with the S. middle initial (and thus ended up as Don S. Davis), but still.
I'd buy any car that General George Hammond would sell me.
Especially because the car that I saw happened to be a gray Mazda 3.

Bonus Word of the Day
Felino
Apparently it is a type of sausage/salami/whatever. Which is quite tasty, and goes hand in hand with my previous post. Leftovers from New Years. Pretty awesome. Was sadly lacking the bread. Had a baguette on New Years to go with the meat and cheese. But it was gone by today.
Also, in case you were wondering, this felino business is not made of cats. I wasn't 100% sure, but I checked the ingredients list. Just to make certain.
