      The Tesla news just keeps "rolling"...

      Trucks done right if any of the information that's come out already is correct.

          Taking a page from George Lucas' book, I see.

          I don't understand this. Unless they weren't making money on the units (which may be possible) they sold out of the initial run and the extended run in a few days of announcing each. This seems like you should just keep going until they are sitting on shelves.

            Yeah, this is the same insane logic that I've seen grocery stores use.... we don't stock that super popular item because it sells out too quickly. WTF

              Local Walmart used to carry a certain kind of non-spicy cheese dip from a major manufacturer that my wife loved. One day, they just quit carrying it. Went to all other walmarts and could not find it. Sold great, just cannot get it in Texas because Frito Lay decided to quit selling it in Texas.

                                      I'm not sure if this is sad on my part because of bad taste, but I actually like some of Adam Sandler's newer stuff. Yeah, some of his earlier works were stupid, like Little Nicky and Zohan, but others were actually funny.

                                        Happy Gilmore and Mr. Deeds are among two of my favorites of his.

                                            You must have watched something of his in order to know that you dislike him.
