Did you look at the Scion Xd before you bought that?
I originally wanted the Xd but apparently they don't make it anymore. Now they have the Xa which isn't as easy on the eyes in my opinion.

I'm really not sure if the sub is 8 or 10 but yeah...it's pretty freaking sweet when I want to be roll with the white and nerdy crowd ;)

Also it's great for when I'm listening to El Pus - Thuggin in the Suburbs.

So far I love it but I have to get used to not having a trunk. I keep freaking out when people are on my ass because there isn't a trunk that extends out so the seem so much closer to the back of my car. I'm pretty sure they're the same distance as before but just look closer.

visa-versa, but I get your point.  I'm seriously considering the Xd for my next car (soon).  I did like the Xa better, though.  And, I'd love to know why the new Xd gets 6mpg less than the Xa.

Exactly......AND it costs a little more. The Xa I had looked at was marked down from 14k to 11k and the Xd starts at 16k. (at least on the ones on the lot that I saw.)

Renaissance festivals?  I attended my first one last year.  I liked it a lot.

Yah.  I usually go every year, and I'm going to the NY Renfaire this weekend so I thought I'd ask if anyone else here did that sort of thing.

True.  But it was my first one, so I don't know how much I could contribute to a conversation related to the topic.  So, I kept my reply rather short.  I could add to it, though.  Here...

MMmmmm wenches.

Ahhhh, wikipedia.  The place where anyone can add "information" as they please.  That's probably the funniest thing I've seen all day...dare I ask how you came across it?

Hey, Xing-Xing. Yes, I did get your phone messages, and I am so sorry I didn't get back to you right away. I'm glad you agreed to meet me for coffee, though, because we need to talk. See, I was sort of confused by some of the things you said on my voicemail: "Hey, that Kurosawa festival at the Orpheum was extended another week if you want to go." "There's a new Cuban place on Eustace Street. I'm free Thursday evening if you're interested." "Hi, Xolik, it's Xing-Xing. Call me."

Since we only met last weekend, I didn't really understand all this chummy familiarity. It took me a while to figure it out, but I finally realized that a big misunderstanding had occurred: You think there's something between us. Xing-Xing, you're a really nice, intelligent, attractive guy, and I'm truly sorry to have to say this, but I didn't mean to lead you on last weekend by fucking you.

All I need now is a cane and a pitcher of lemonade.

Oh yes, and a gun.
