Have you considered a V70R AWD? I used to own an 850 turbo 222hp and that was a fun wagon, fast, comfortable and roomy.
The V70R's 300hp engine will not bore you , AWD, stick or automatic, limited to 155mph, thee most comfortable seats, very safe, select ride for comfort or corners, optional 3rd seat for the kids when the inlaws are in town,
headlight wipers, optional built in child seats, very sporty looking for a wagon and did I mention fast! I would definitely test drive one, at least the S60R which are more common.

It was a 7.9 btw

At least my friends over there are okay. Next up are the ones that I know in Hawaii ( they're not in the evacuation zone, but there's still concern )
Wow, that was really graphic video, everything being pulled into the sea.

Interestingly, oil is down tonight. I think it's pulling back on demand concern due to slowing growth, and the EU debt crisis rearing its ugly head yet again. I made a killing on a double leveraged oil ETF in the last couple weeks, and now I'm short oil to profit as it comes back down. I'm very uncertain of this position though. Oil could be $50 in a month or $150. Really tough to call. Professional analysts are split right down the middle on it right now, which is rare.
Oh and that quake is terrible. Sitting up glued to the news.
You must feel like if you were trading silver, very volatile, could swing drastically either way!

never had to worry about a tsunami living at almost 2 miles above sea level, I can only imagine the calamities, suffering and loss near coastal lines, hope people were alerted soon enough to seek higher ground.

Another reason might be flying is a real hassle anymore so more people are driving to their destinations + economy is weak and for a family it is more economical to drive than to fly.

good video Robert, liked all the different camera angles

Man, that's sad news but I'm sure its for the better. Much success to you and your family!

Glad you're back home, that means the doc's are pretty confident you are going to be ok.
To everyone here, don't ignore any signs of heart trouble, that's our engine and if it stops you can only hope to get a jump start immediately.
I'm 46 now but at 38 I felt an awful feeling and my chest was like being pressed by a ton of bricks, I took 2 aspirins and still no relief, I left work
and drove straight to the hospital(should have asked someone to drive me there).
Like most men, we like to tough it out, thinking more of wife and kids than my male toughness is what got me to check in at the ER.
2 days later I am told stress was the culprit, I was relieved but at the same time it is not an easy thing to change.
Stress can cause havoc on one's body and it is very illusive cause of a variety of symptoms.
My solution to reduce stress was to change in a big way, we downsized the house and vehicles and moved away from the big city.
To my luck I was able to stay with the same company and relocate to one of our small offices but I was ready for a career change also.
Debt is a big contributor to stress, it matters more what you do with what you make than how much you make, we hear of celebrities
who earn millions and are in financial ruin, to most financial stress can be avoided by having a simpler life style and
never out spend your income. Credit card debt is a trap to take away your freedom, do your best to avoid it.
My forced idle time caused me to reflect about life and priorities, you will be ok and will come out of this even more mature and refined.
God bless you and your family, wish you much success and great health.

LOL! I get to see that everyday....kinda.
We got 6 chicks this past spring for free range eggs and they were all supposed to be hens, but they messed up and one ended up being a rooster. He's a mean one too. He tries to get the hens to fight but they just run away, so instead he chooses to attack me usually, but sometimes goes after my chihuahua, and even our bigger dog sometimes too. It seems to just be a male thing, he doesn't go after my wife at all.
I've learned not to go out in the back yard wearing shorts.
Your rooster and the dogs, I wonder if that's how this cartoon came about?

It was?
(I should be ashamed....I'm not exactly "Mr. Current Events")

I'm with Tim, in the dark with most current events, last meaning it will be replaced or they're are just pulling the plug?

Nice video Renato. When Randy drove thru the parking garage at Luxor the sound was cool. I asked him if we could drive thru it again
Bill
Thanks
My exhaust sounds pretty deep but then I heard Randy's, mine doesn't compare, when he fires up his V8 people around take notice

I got the biggest garage, the outdoors
Wish I had one

Good stuff SubZero. Thanks for the advice. The neighbors behind us have twin boys that play the drums once in a while. We can hear it quite well inside our house sometimes LOL. Have you heard the stuff from the drummer (that unfortunately died) from Avenged Sevenfold. He was super talented. I watched a youtube clip of him from when he did a recital as a kid and it was just insane what he did at that young age. Also can't forget to mention Neil Peart from Rush, greatest drummer of all time IMO.
Great clip too BuGG! Thanks for posting.
The band practices at my house with amps and all, so it gets ridiculous loud!!!
How sad about that young drummer losing his life, my hart goes out to his parents.
As you can see in this video, HLTD needs more practice still, meaning its gonna feel like I'm living inside a giant speaker for a while still

Didn't watch the entire thing but what I saw was pretty awesome. He's very talented and I'm sure you're really proud! I always wanted to drum but never did it. My daughter who just turned three seems to have great rhythm and loves to drum using pencils as sticks and some of my binders for the drums. I might look into getting a decent drum set for her. Any suggestions for an decent kid's set? Maybe a nice used set from an instrument reseller?
Buying used is the way to go, initially we bought him a new set for $350 and it did not last long, a good set is expensive so shop craigslist, great deals there especially for how young your daughter is, she will just need a basic set to start. Nick is already on his 3rd drum set.
Nick is 17 now and at 15 is when he took interest, since he formed a band about 3-4 months ago he has really improved his drumming skills, he still has a lot more to learn but being part of band is key to getting better at it, so if your daughter sticks to it, have her become part of a band later in life.
The cons about being a drummer is with every gig there's so much to haul with you and setting up, also your home will sometimes be too loud to even think, but it is great fun watching your kid play.
This could be your daughter someday

This Sunday they're doing battle of the bands down in Denver, what a blast for these youngsters, their band name is HLTD ages 16 to 21

i dont think i would need to go far from home. id go off up into the mountains of north ga., southern tennessee. pretty secluded up there, its still clean and there is lots of water and critters. good soil that will grow most anything you need. other than that, somewhere out in colorado. ive been there a few times and its pretty well isolated as well. find a small mountain or mesa and dig a house out into the side of it.
I heard from somewhere that if our Colorado mountains could be pushed flat it would then be bigger than the state of Texas! I've lived here for over 20 years and probably only seen half the state.
Vast unpopulated lands here, just pick your spot!
just poppin back in to say hi
in Just plain ol' B.S.
