It makes me feel sick to my stomach …. When I shared a picture of my tattoo on my Twitter page and said, ‘ALL LOVE is equal,’ a lot of people mocked me – they said, ‘What happened to you? You used to be a Christian girl!’ And I said, ‘Well, if you were a true Christian, you would have your facts straight. Christianity is about love.’ The debate resulted in a lot of threats and hate mail to people who agreed and disagreed with me. At one point I had to say, ‘Dude, everyone lay off.’ Can’t people have friendly debates about sensitive topics without it turning into unnecessary threats?” - Pop star Miley Cyrus on her marriage equality tattoo - - - - - - - - - - -

2015 Ford Evos Mustang???

RAIN
So what! If you have to wait 2 more years - I'm sure all you Mustang fanatics will be out buying the new sports car in droves.  I'll stick to my RAIN for now, thank you very much :-) 

According to this article, The new Ford Mustang Evos will be coming to a city near you by 2015. The Evos is powered by a plug-in hybrid electric powertrain which consists of a 2.0-liter Atkinson cycle gasoline engine, electric motor and lithium-ion battery pack. [source].  So yeah Ford's taking Hybrid to a whole new level, and I'd have to say I'm quite impressed.  But I'm sure this care will cost a pretty penny, so unless you're carrying around a huge load of cash, financing will not be so great. Maybe you can finance for 10 years or something. LOL.

Check out the pics, they are pretty cool.

What a Hot Mess: Ford vs. Chevrolet

I swore I wasn't going to post any Superbowl commercials, but I have to talk about this one.  As you probably already know, in the commercial you see a man driving his 2012 Chevy Silverado through an apocalyptic city.  It's the end of the world, remember?

The driver continues maneuvering through the destruction as Barry Manilow's "Looks Like We Made It" plays in the background.  He eventually comes across his buddies who all happen to own previous year models, when he asks, "Where's Dave?"
And it's the response from this man that starts a mess of a battle between two of America's largest Automakers, "Dave didn't drive the longest-lasting, most-dependable truck on the road.  Dave drove a Ford."

Well Ford wasn't going to have any of that.  In fact, they tried to keep it from airing the day of the Superbowl by issuing a cease-and-desist order to NBC.  But it didn't work.  And now the CEO's are back and forth sending each other ridiculous letters that I found quite humorous. [source]

You know General Motors is having so much fun with this... they issued the following statement:
"We stand by our claims in the commercial, that the Silverado is the most dependable, longest-lasting full-size pickup on the road," said GM Global Chief Marketing Officer Joel Ewanick in a press release. "We can wait until the world ends, and if we need to, we will apologize. In the meantime, people who are really worried about the Mayan calendar coming true should buy a Silverado right away."

Siri Caught In The Middle [NSFW]

So I'm sure everyone knows by now that Siri is the next best thing to come along since, I don't know, The Ford Pinto?  In either case, that little bitch is up to no good once again.  This time she gets in between a loving marriage and makes things so difficult. This video is rated NSFW due to it's vulgar language.
As you know, the Siri is the new intelligent software assistant and knowledge navigator functioning as a personal assistant for, the all so fabulous, iPhone. The application uses a natural language user interface to answer questions, make recommendations, and perform actions by delegating requests to a set of web services. Siri claims that the software adapts to the user's individual preferences over time and personalizes results, as well as accomplishing tasks such as making dinner reservations and reserving a cab.
