What about the Buick Skylark?

the buick skylark was a good dependable car in the 60s and 70s. it was reliable easy to drive and park and had reasonably good gas mileage. the 6 cylinder was a little underpowered but it was ok. and of course if you had an 8 cylinder it was fine. mike *console

I had the 6. Car handled like a dream. My dad bought two of them: one to drive and one for parts. It was a nice size, too. More like a midsize than anything. It was a great vehicle. It wasn't very popular at the time from what I hear.

Good evening all I'm still on the wrong day, Sunday 26th here lol. Monopoly was fun when I was growing up, my sisters were a lot younger and I remember doing a dialogue with noises the pieces like the car made around the board. Now I like playing Mahjong which I go out on Wednesday night for fun.
Hmm I haven't watched much Star Trek for years so it's hard to know if it's still good.

Last night I watched Star Wars: Episode II – Attack of the Clones
Hadn't seen it before lol, think I'll sit on the fence and watch what the outcome is.

As long as "Discovery" is on the streaming service I don't accept it as canon.

For me none of the recent stuff is canon. The STD is even worse than the movies. Did you see the last episode of season one? It was a complete train wreck. It's like the writers decided to quit en masse before writing it and it was left to the janitorial staff to put it together. If I was on the writing staff for that one, I'd sue to have my name removed from the credits.

It's been getting pretty good ratings, so it's more than just us two. Season 3 just got the green light. It shows what a Trek vehicle is like when it's conceived and created by an actual Trek fan who 'gets it'.

Yes I'm very opinionated when it comes to Star Trek*sfdunno

I only saw the very first episode of Discovery, stopped after that. I liked the 1st of the reboot movies but they have gotten worse - Star Trek works better on TV since it is more character driven (real TV, not streaming)
