Move It Over Mini!!!

Yay! I finally get to do a car review, and let me just say, I am SO stoked about this one guys! So here it comes, brace yourself in your seats. Ok so if you've seen the movie Cars (if you haven't go do it now!), you may remember a peppy little Italian car named Luigi (he all about 'da Ferraris). Well Luigi is in fact a Fiat 500, granted an older model, think 1960's and 70's. Anyway it's a cool little model and one of Fiat's most celebrated cars. It really was one of the first micro cars, so small it could pull in sideways in a parallel parking spot and not stick out. However all great things come to an end. So I've provided a collage for you to admire a retired great.
However, if some great things do end, and it's name venerated, why not make something to honor it's memory? Well that's why I give you, with massive anticipation, the NEW FIAT 500!! YAY! It's so amazing, I am so impressed with Fiat's ability to make it gloriously new age, but still hearkens back to the great original. Fiat is calling it the Ipod of cars, a small convenient automobile for the future. It's so great looking, it has a futuristic sleek look, but still a delightfully retro feel. Notice the glass roof! Very new age! Fiat has said it will consider selling it here in the good ol' USA, but they want to see how Alfa-Romeo goes first (returning in 2009 after a 20+ year absence, keep an eye out). So let's hope and pray that Alfa won't be the only Italian marque coming back to the United States in the next few years!

What is it about storms? Theres just something so cathartic about them. It's so easy to get lost in the turmoil. The day may start sunny, but when those black clouds roll in, you better get indoors. The day goes dark and the sky swirls in a blackened turmoil. The rain pours over everything, dousing it with a needed release. The lightning crashes, as if the sky itself is exacting vengeance upon parched, baked earth. Thunder rolling s hatters the peaceful summer calm with the anger of the heavens which once again make their power known, lest we forget the might. Then it all goes calm, as quickly as it came. The sky lightens, the rain slows, and all we're left with is some puddles, and a lasting clean to make new the the parched and dead earth. I love it.

Test-Drive This American Male



Wow. Once again, I go into a musical-movie skeptical, then I come out singing. First Phantom, now Hairspray. Although more then likely, Phantom will still be my #1, Hairspray is just so damn good! Where Phantom leaves you kinda sad Hairspray leaves you walkin' on air. Granted Phantom's plot is much deeper, but this movies just a fun time. Actually this movie made me regret not taking part in any of the musicals all my friends were in during high-school. My singing isn't great, but maybe I'll rectify that through voice lessons @ eiu. Hmm, now thats a thought. Anyway, if you haven't seen this movie yet, well you should, immediately. Then go out and buy the soundtrack. Then I find it best to proceed to lock yourself in your room and burst into song and dance. It's great fun.

OH BTW: Blaqk Audio's cd called CexCells comes out today! Go buy it! It's gonna be awesome!
