It's True Because It's Science!

This just in: Some Women Allergic To Sex

Bummer, I guess all those women were telling the truth... :)~ But like all merciful deities, Science showed compassion through the *ahem* recommended therapy. You know, the "... require sex two or three times a week..." part.

Guess all I need to do now is to find that lucky girl with hypersensitivity issues!

The '57 Chevy... Eh I Mean Chevy 230

In case you haven't heard, the Chevy Volt aka GM's Hail-Mary-All-In-On-7-2-Off-Suit was recently given a 230MPG rating. Although not completely official yet, GM is already pimping the Volt like it has an operational flux capacitor. I don't blame them though... after so many years of being treated as the retarded red-headed step child of the auto industry, GM finally has a big sound bite! Seriously, 230 freakin' miles PG!

But of course it's too good to be true. They're doing "fuzzy math", as in counting the miles driven by the battery and adding it to the miles driven in gas mode ("charge sustaining"). Since the battery is suppose to do 40 miles on its own, you essentially get a "free" 40 miles for the gas mode. Sad, because I do think the Volt is one step above the Prius type hybrid. And I do think it will put GM back into the race and then some. But to claim it goes 230MPG? That's something only a retarded redheaded step child would say.

I've always thought we should go with a new rating system... perhaps joules/km? Fine, metric system's evil - joules/mile then?
