quote of the day


“expensive, complex, delicate, intrinsically useless, created for some obscure psychic need of the species if not the race, from the virgin resources of a continent, to be the indvidual muscles, bones and flesh of a new and legless kind.”
-William Faulkner

in the book pylon
faulkner gives this grim description of the automobile




reverberating strongly today with the news of the detroit three
dragging their feet by saying they won't get efficiency up until 2011
only last year ford wanted to roll out this subdued XUV
proving they still have their finger on the pulse with the alton
