Last weekend we took the van (GMC Safari) in to have the horn fixed, only to be told the vehicle’s not safe and to get it off the road. It seems that whoever fixed it after its original accident used some questionable methods, such as welding a part that should have been bolted on, so it’s ready to go. Also, the brakes had about a week’s life left to them. Given that the mechanic didn’t even want to try to repair it tells us this vehicle’s at the end of its life.

We paid $1500 for it, so 2 years for that’s not bad. We’re just a bit freaked out that it was in such a poor state for so long and we’ve been driving the kids around in it.

We’ll be heading to Kia in Abbotsford (hey look Joe, they actually made their web site look professional!) to investigate the Sedona, which has the best crash test safety rating. Hopefully they’ll take the old van as a down payment and the monthlies aren’t too much.

Cute & Small Boobs Raw score: 33% Big Breasts, 50% Big Ass, and 72% Cute!

Thanks for taking the T and A and C test! Based on your selections, the results are clear: you show an attraction to smaller breasts, larger asses, and sexier composure than others who’ve taken the test. Note that because you scored small on breasts but large on ass size, it might appear you like girls bottom heavy. That’s probably not the case. What’s more likely is that you notice curvy, voluptuous butts, and you don’t like big, fake boobs. Big real boobs are even worse because of the sag. Anyway, my third variable, “cuteness” is a mostly objective measure of how innocent a given model looked. It’s determined by a combination of a lot of factors: lack of dark eye makeup, facial expression, posture, etc. If you scored high on that variable, you are either really nice OR you’re into deflowering teens. If you scored low, you are attracted to raunchier, sexier, women. In your case, your higher than average score suggests you appreciate a cuter, nicer look. Kudos! Recommended Celebrity: Hilary Duff, because she is the ultimate in cute! Especially since she lost that baby fat!

They’ve announced the sequel for Batman Begins. One problem with having big name actors portraying the superheroes and supervillains is what I call “Mask Off Syndrome”, where the filmmaker has to come up with reasons for them taking their masks off so the actors get as much “face time” as possible.

In Spider-Man 2 the hero lost his mask while saving an elevated train, and later took his mask off to convince Octavius to save the day. The Superman movies don’t have this problem because he doesn’t wear a mask and people want to see Superman more than Clark Kent anyway. At the end of Batman Returns Michael Keaton ripped off his mask while he was still in costume, which looked ridiculous.

In Batman Begins Bruce Wayne took centre stage as the story of his origin and quest for justice was told. It all worked in the framework of the story. I’m worried that in the next film there will be less reason for him to spend time as Bruce Wayne, so they’ll do something silly to have him take his mask off while in costume.

Oh well…I guess we’ll see.
