With gas prices going UP and UP and UP, I decided to test drive a Smart car a few days ago. It rides nice on the freeway, which was a surprise for such a small car. It had plenty of leg room for me. I did not like the transmission. It has an unusual, slow shifting style. 5-speed automatic. Th

* * * * * Jeremy Lin starts in seven straight games and the Knicks have seven straight wins. Isn't it GREAT to see the amazing success this young man is having?! I like the fact that he came out of nowhere to become a big star. People who know him say he's humble. That's nice to hear. He's alrea
