Would it have to be crimes? Couldn't there be a hero with pink guns? Like if the Punisher got a girl sidekick?
He followed me home, can I keep him?

There was a girl punisher for a while and due to second teir writing and overall market saturation that in all fairness would have been just as true for a boy sidekick she was not well received.

Okay!

Right now hybrids really don't pay for themselves. I mean, technically it could, if you drove for a living and put a lot of miles on it. But the initial cost is $$$, and down the road there will be huge costs associated with replacing the battery ($3000+) and the misc. other systems.
For someone wanting good gas mileage, I would tell them to get a diesel. This really pretty much limits you to VW, but a nice diesel Golf can get the same mileage as a hybrid. Diesel is a little more expensive than regular unleaded, but the cars are cheap. Emissions are comparable to gasoline-powered cars; you're just emitting different stuff. But you live in California, and I'm unsure of the availability of diesel passenger cars right now. The US as a whole as switching to low-particular diesel fuel, and this means a lot of changes all over the country.
In short... BUY A MINI FLI!! Get a new base model Cooper, according to the rat bastards that estimate fuel economy, it'll get 32/40 city/highway. But I've averaged more than my "rated" highway driving, so if you're miserly you can prolly get +40mpg in mixed driving. mmmmm.. And you'll love driving it, trust me. =P

How about this Skunkypoo--
You pin point the car... find it's webpage/ ad/ or whatever...
I'm going to print it and hang it in garage. So that I can always remember it. In this way, I will actually remember what has been said today. As far as cars go... I don't care what I'm driving as long it's decent and it doesn't force me to either tune it up every other time OR make me pay a guy to tune it up. My family has had a horrible history of lemons...
I am definetly not a car guy... in this type of matter, I'm going for praticality.
Pussywagons apply to me not.

The only thing to fear from your army of the night is a nasty rash, and possibly some itchiness.

I think I have just been royally dissed by my own brother.
He decided to go to the drive in tonight to see Wild Hogs, and stated (to my mother) that he would not take me with him because that would appear gay/sad.
Nevermind that he went by HIMSELF to a drive-in movie, and nevermind the fact that I took the little punk to see Freddy vs Jason AND Saw 2 when they came out in theatres because he wasn't of age at the time, he didn't even offer to take me with him to this movie. I found out through my mother about this two hours after the fact.
Ungratefull little so-and-so...

As an older brother with a similar younger brother this one definitely hits home....
Unfortunately how to deal with it seems to differ from person to person.

Pay em back in spades!
Being the older brother, you have certain priveleges that he won't get. The ability to drive, buy tobacco, booze, etc.
I'd state to his face that I won't be getting him that Gin he wants next time around, because then I would appear "gay".....and then of course follow up and actually NOT privelege him next time he needs something (revenge).
This kind of direct approach is appreciated by MY brother though, he understands that he got what he deserved, and that if he's not gonna be considerate to me, there's no reason for me to be considerate to him, and changes accordingly.
For your brother though (not knowing a damned thing about him)......
maybe the simple threat of depriving him of your graces would be enough.
If not, go see a sweet R rated movie and not take him for the exact same reasons he didn't take you......that might drive the point home much clearer (especially if its a movie he would want to see). if he's past that age, go get drunk and not invite him along to the party.
Both my brother and I were brought up under the philosophy that respect is earned and lost through your interactions with others, hence the reason sweet revenge works pretty well for me.

He's old enough to buy tobacco and drive, just not old enough to buy booze.... which is an interesting thought when you consider I have a fairly large bottle of Jager stashed away that he doesn't know about....
That would be a pisser for him to find out about on one of those weekend mornings when he has to be at work before the crack of dawn, like this morning. >:-D~
I like the way you think.

I have only a sister.
And a half sister I didn't know until I was 21 years of age.
