Drum Solo - Creative Labs

I can't take credit for finding this video but it is so funny. This guy is pretty good with his fingers. A little off beat but his "tom-tom" work is fast. Rock and Roll! Thanks Josh.

"Sing It Sha-let" - Nelly


Apparently Charlotte Church had her own show. Although it looks like it failed, she was at one time, able to convince an artist like Nelly Furtado to come on the show. This version of the song "Crazy" is actually really good. There are some cool harmonies in this version, especially the ending. Listen, if you want.

The Golf Once Was…but Now It Is NOT




The Golf has always been a great car for me. It has done such great things as:
1. Fit more boxes of “stuff” inside, when I was helping Ted move, than Ted’s Toyota Tacoma did in the bed.
2. Got me from Roseville to Orange County in less than six hours, on one tank of gas.
3. Ran all time AC for almost 8 years.

The list really could go on but that’s not the point of this entry. The Golf once was a great vehicle with many features that were perfect for me, but now it is not. I believe there are more short comings to the Golf that there are good things. It is not performing the way it used to. Such great feats it accomplished before, now are but a memory. In its “old age” the VW Golf is really feeling its 8 years of service.

To contradict the above 3 items of greatness, it can’t:
1. Hold the car seat for my son, while accommodating a front seat passenger.
2. Go 3000 miles without needing me to add oil. (used to go 5K)
3. All-Time-AC just cost me almost $400.oo to fix.

HERE’S MY POINT…We need a new vehicle, designed for a family.

I’m not into the whole minivan thing but money is TIGHT! Email your suggestions. We would, of course, like to go the SUV route.
Here is a list of SUVs that we are thinking about (not in any particular order.) Also, the links take you to stories on the new models of these SUVs, (all from Edmunds.com for unbiased info); we are not necessarily looking at new.

Ford Expedition
Chevy Tahoe
Toyota Sequoia
Toyota 4-Runner
Honda Pilot

As far as Minivans go, I don’t like any of them. Listed below are the minivans I consider “the best of the worst.” Again, there is no order to these, except the first.

VW Microbus (Concept) – I would buy this. More Pics of the Microbus
Honda Odyssey
Nissan Quest

SO, check the links for all of these vehicles. Send me your ideas as to which purchase would be the best financially, economically, practically, etc.
