JDMimports

I think you already know abut the 15 year rule Canada has about cars. If not the coles notes version is if a car is over 15 years old no matter what condition it is in you can import it in without having to have Canada transportation look at and certify your car. Thus you can import in a 15 year old GT-R without having to pay a fee to have it inspected. So going back to my link, if you scroll down a little you'll see a Nissan Silvia for sale for around 10,000! I know you were looking for a 240 or a 300 so I don't know.

Also if you look you can see a GT-R for around 17,000! Man should of got a skyline instead... Well too late now. Midlife crisis car I suppose.

well, now I know this is a rather sensitive issue for a lot of people, but holy fuck... South Dakota has made abortion illegal. things are moving backwards.

I dunno. I think RED is pretty lame sounding... capitalism isn't always the best answer (though it may tap into a compassionate consumer or two who could direct spending towards those items instead of, say the other GAP t-shirt they were thinking about).

I mean, if you really want to give money to help get rid of AIDS in Africa, why not give it to an organization directly, instead of buying something and sending only part of your money to them (and through all the sorting/paperwork/bureaucracy hoops)? The Stepehen Lewis Foundation would get more of the money you spend, and therefore put more of it towards erradicating AIDS.

I'm not sure how I feel about Bono though. I mean, is this one of those 'rockstars shouldn't get involved in politics' things, or is this simply against Bono, in the way that many people react against, um, Bob Geldof? 'cause if it's a rockstar thing in general, you have to get on the case of Zack De La Rocha and pretty much all of Rage Against the Machine... plus The Beastie Boys, plus all kinds of other people. If it's because Bono is going after mainstream causes in mainstream ways... well, what do you expect? he's a pop artist, trying to use the his popularity as a vehicle for making change, even if it is middling change. you have to give him credit for trying to do something other than simply sell albums with his fame. And no matter what people say, this certainly is a better (for the world) use of his energies and spotlight than making clothing, perfume, shoes or whatever else other popular artists do. Plus, he's bringing greater media attention to things like the G8 summit (on topics the media don't usually bring to prime time news). Sure, there are wiser ways to go about it than RED, but since I can't come up with anything... at least he's got something.

ANY THOUGHTS ON THIS RED CAMPAIGN?

Personally i still think Bono is a major WAD and this is only further proof of it

Snow sucks, especially when it is taller then the ground clearance of your car. Low clearance; good for cornering, bad for driving in winter.

I'd also like to comment on the time warp I just recently experienced. I believe there is something wrong with the fabric of the space-time continuum. I just spent an hour shovelling outside. But it didn't feel like simply an hour, it felt like three. Where is the justice? I spend what felt like almost my entire afternoon shovelling, yet barely any time went by... but when I take a shower that feels like only ten minutes, I'm sucked into the hot water vortex for at least 30.

the only thing I can think of is that frozen water slows time down, and hot water speeds it up...
take that, physics!

Hey, couple of questions:

Ani DiFranco is coming to the Winspear on July 28th, and I was wondering if anyone is interested in joining me. It should be an AWESOME show. (tickets are something like $40) let me know soon.

And... the week of April 3-9 is rather big for performances etc. Is anyone interested in (or already) going to the Metric show on Thursday the 6th (tix $25), the Hawksley Workman show on Friday the 7th (tix $22) and/or Jello Biafra at the Horowitz on Sunday the 9th (no idea what the price...)

oh, aaand... Angela Davis is coming on the 28th (march) to do a talk at the Horowitz (part of the Revolutionary speaker series) any takers??

Or, what would you do in this circumstance? Trevor Tchir (of whom I am a big fan) is playing at the new Sidetrack on the 29th before leaving on a cross canada tour. He's in competition with Michael Franti at the Horowitz where he'll be showing a new documentary and playing a solo acoustic set. which should I go to???


Plus, this coming Tuesday, the 21st, is March of the Penguins and Murderball movie/doc night at SUB stage.

so much to see and do, and all I had to do was skim a few events pages to find all that out... Anyone interested in joining me for any of this?
