    liar.

    incoherent snipper.

    Poster claimed that he sees most greener's drive old VW bugs or vans.
    I singled out the specific claim without interpreting it, and called
    him a liar.

    The word you're looking for is "incisive" not incoherent. A honed
    epistomoligical razor, if you will.

    OK. /Contextually/ incoherent snipper.

    Feel better Max? (Err, What?) (Err, Button Dude?) (Err, Huh?!?)

    :-D :-P 8-)

    There's something decliciously alluring and demure
    about evil Montreal women.

    They aren't really evil, they just dress that way.

    Alluring, is definitely the Montreal look. Demure, OTOH, probably
    means they're tourists or recent transplants.

    I think it'll turn up and they'll get it back. Eventually.
    'Specially if they talk nice and civil to the police.

    And if they don't get it back, it just means that there's one MORE
    Hummer on the road soon (the one that replaces the one that's now
    being driven by someone who probably couldn't have afforded it if it
    wasn't hot).

    Hopefully, like many other cars stolen in Canada, it will turn up
    overseas somewhere in the Balkans or states of the former USSR.

    Isn't that redundant?

    (now you all have to figure out if I'm anti-Canadian or sexist)

    Oh, why not both?

    ;-)

    I do admit the sigmonster did not come up with this one unprompted.

    Consider the source, folks. Zoot has in the past confessed to lusting
    after punk goth biker chicks in work boots.

    It was the holes in the knees of their stockings which most intrigued
    me until I noticed the hardware in their lips.

    There's a definite style sense in Montreal. After spending any length
    of time there, Kansas will never be the same.

    I think you have it. To be fair Montreal women are no prettier than any
    others. But their sense of style is unequalled.

    From Zoot's description, I think "unmatched" might be a better word.

    There's an old phrase that is still occasionally used to describe an
    unattractive person- s/he looks like s/he was hit in the face with a
    bag of nickels. I guess that if those nickels had become embedded,
    they'd be beauty marks in Montreal. <g>

    Possibly might catch on.

    I have to admit it took me a while to put two and two together. The
    holes in their stockings just showed that they were skater-babes and
    apparently not very skilled ones.

    Reality is harsh sometimes.

    So, you admit you're alluring. It's not just me, then.

    Today i had a chuckle... there was a story on the news about a couple
    from NYC who came up here for a holiday (Montreal). While they were here
    their HUMVEE (Valued at 65K) was stolen from the garage of the Queen
    Elizabeth Hotel. The big story was that they feel they weren't treated
    well by the police (this ia a huge auto theft city).

    But I was BWAHAHAHAHA! Serves you right for having one of those tanks
    anyways...every time I see one of those things i just roll my eyes.

    it turns out that the most popular car for thieves is actually Honda
    Civic.

    Geez, while I think that the Hummer is one of the most useless
    vehicles there is, I still see nothing humorous in one being stolen.

    It is amazing that at least two replies want to make this political.

    What I don't understand, Marlene, is this "serves you right" mean
    streak that you occasionally display. Is that who you really are? Do
    you enjoy seeing others suffer misfortune? I hope not.

    I dislike the Hummer, not because it pollutes, but because they are
    hartd to see around. If I needed an suv in that price range, I would
    look at Land Rovers.

    Ahh, the zero sum poverty line.

    If I become richer, I'm making someone else poorer.

    Don't all those people in the world who want pay raises
    know they'd only be making others poorer?

    It's been that way since we first had civilization, even under systems
    like Marxism, where everyone is supposed to be equal, there are those
    that are more equal then others......

    Power equals money, and money equals power, and people can be greedy for
    both. This is why big shot drives a hummer in the first place, it's
    big, it's expensive and shows off his money and power......
