| POEM: Shaken, but Not Stirred! | | 2008-06-25 19:08:00 | | Trying my hands on a poem for the first time…Nothing personal in this. Wasn't sure how readers will take it. Did a beta release yesterday at Mouthshut and feedback was positive. So with that courage releasing this to my blog readers.Read and tell me if this looks hopeless/average/bad/acceptable… whatever…---Poem Start--- ---Shaken, but not Stirred---I should have kept my coolBut now I feel like a foolI’ll be in town this weekend-said heWhen and where are we meeting?

| | Same Small-Car Stew, Stirred and Reheated | | 2007-12-30 04:39:00 | | WHETHER you’ve been bad or good, I can tell you what you’re not getting this Christmas: a new Focus from Ford’s European workshop.CALLING CARDS Sync reads messages and manages MP3 players, above. Nonfunctional fender vent, right, is an affectation.The Focus that Americans are receiving definitely beats a fruitcake. But it is a warmed-over version of the Focus that’s been around since 2000, rather than Europe’s vastly fresher (and admittedly pricier) Focus that shares its mechanical recipe with the sophisticated Mazda 3 and Volvo S40.For people who expected the new Focus to saddle up against the best compact cars — including the Mazda 3 and the Honda Civic — it’s hard to hide the disappointment. Especially because the original Focus proved that Detroit could design a fully competitive small car when it wasn’t busy chasing the latest S.U.V. hussy.One last gripe, and then I’ll play with the toy I’ve got: for whatever reason, the kids at Mazda and Volvo seem to get all the good stuff at Ford, while the parent company takes the leftovers.Also gone is the Focus hatchback model, always the coolest of the breed; and the optional 2.3-liter engine that was Focus’s remaining draw for enthusiast buyers. What’s left is a serviceable and frugal — if sleepy — sedan and coupe, intended to keep budget buyers coming and rental counters humming.While the styling seems timid to a fault — check out those faux cooling vents glued to the front fenders, as bogus as a temporary tattoo — the car itself is improved. I drove a top-of-the-line Focus SES for a week, a sedan that started at $16,995 and rose to $20,200 with options including heated leather seats, antilock brakes and a six-disc audio system with Sirius Satellite Radio.The compact Ford also included the new Sync system, developed by Ford and Microsoft, that’s standard on the SES model and a $395 option on other versions, including the lowest-priced ($14,695) Focus S coupe.

| | Shaken, not stirred | | 2006-08-13 23:22:00 | | Tariq Ramadan makes many a woman swoon. We quote from comments:"Tariq Ramadan is a hotty. I'll marry him so that he can get his green card and spread the liberal Muslim word...then we will make little hot muslim babies." Ladies, he's married and has four kids. So not only is he smart and sexy, he's that rarest of breeds - a man who can commit. Don't give up hope, however. Muhammad had many wives, so all Tariq needs is to be given the attractive options.As his exclusive agent, the LHG is in charge of the selection process. Send your pictures to lazurdadeldiego@gmail.com - they'll be evaluated by our staff and those selected will be forwarded to the man himself. First fifty submissions get signed copies of Western Muslims and the Future of Islam.Good luck, ladies. Mcdreamy awaits.... | | By: The Left Hand of God | | |
