I’m sure it’s not a puzzle how I went from choosing between the Lancer EX GT-A and Impreza 2.0R Sport to the Genesis Coupe 2.0T. But just the same, here’s the tale of the tape:
Just got email from Leslie saying my TiC front shifter stay bushings have been delivered complete with toy soldiers! Here’s the pic he took:
The Ford Fiesta had a great showing at WRC Rally Sweden. Ford Fiestas swept the podium! Looks like Loeb and his also new Citroen DS3 is going to have a tougher time this year. If only they make Ford Fiestas here with those aggressive wide fenders with an option for an R2 Rally Kit.
The Arroyo mother and son tandem filed a bill against overstaying in the overtaking lane. How sweet! Looks like mommy got cranky when her convoy, no longer allowed to use wang-wangs, couldn’t go faster at NLEX. I suppose they are talking about NLEX and one or two other expressways because pretty much anywhere else:
- The traffic is horrendous and everyone is forced to use all the available lanes.
- There are two lanes but the outer lane is risky because of pedestrians, motorcycles, tricycles, kuligligs, carabao carts, and karitons.
- Only one lane (and there’s still a possibility of all the risks in #2).
In the bill, they want to increase the penalties when in fact, the real reason why it is happening is because it, as with many laws here, is not being enforced. Well, maybe with the higher penalties, the traffic enforcers can “charge” erring motorists for more thus providing them incentive to do their work.
There are car washes and there are car washes. Big Bert’s is one of those. It’s a professional operation. The staff are uniformed and well-supervised, the work area is clean and well laid out. Electrical cables are hung on runners along the ceiling, waxes and soaps are. And the work is simply exemplary. Definitely worth a visit but you should be early as the place gets mobbed especially during weekends.
