You are a JAGUAR/PANTHER! You are very sly and
tricky. You love to play tricks on people and
you often find that funny. You like to lounge
around during your freetime and if you're not
being a jokester, you're being dark and
mysterious. You are unpredictable. Sometimes,
you don't even know what you, yourself is going
to do next!
Which FELINE are you?

The latest: went to a couple sculpt / cardio sculpt classes at my gym...how do people do these things? I have to find the actual enjoyment in them besides any satisfaction that I've worked my butt off! Where's a soccer team when you need one?
Work over the weekend was relatively none eventful, none stop rain will usually do that. This allowed us to stay in and do paperwork which after eight hours was a little over-bearing and made the remaining three unbearable.
Days off have been nice, lots of different things on the go. Today I will be out "quarrying" with the dog section. For those who don't know, "quarries" are the equivalent to "helpers" or "agitators" in the dog training world. Basically I lay tracks and take bites for the dog handlers, should be fun!
Also hunting around for a new vehicle, a midsize truck or SUV. The shopping list has been narrowed down to the following:
1. Toyota Tacoma
2. Toyota RAV4 (2005/6)
3. Ford Sport Track (I like the '07, coming out next year)
4. Ford Explorer (04-06)
5. Ford F150
6. Nissan XTerra
7. Nissan Titan
8. Hyundai Santa Fe (seems to sensible though)
For you Dodge lovers, sorry they're just not biting my biscuit...and they suck on gas. |

Sorry, you're going to have say more than that to convince me!
Hmm... #1 - not great on gas #2 - not good safety ratings #3 - they'll annoy other drivers on the road #4 - eek!!! Also: look at this article. Scroll down to the "Criticism" section.

Well, I'm glad you brought up these points. Most of them I do not agree with. From the research I have done on these vehicles I have found the safety ratings to have vastly improved in the last three years or so. As far as gas goes; newer imports seem to be improving the fuel efficiency but they're never going to be better than a compact vehicle, which brings me to my next point.
How can you load up the dogs, kids, camping gear and supplies, go for a trip off the beaten path with something but a truck or SUV?
Not very easily. Anyway, the whole motivation behind getting such a vehicle is for the fact that we're going to have dog(s), which need a kennel, we're going to have kids and will want to go camping (as we have all sorts of new gear now!) I'm thinking we need something more than a Cavalier coupe! | |
