just in case you don't have enough time wasters...

M&M'S Dark Chocolate. It's a painting of 50 "dark" movies. It's all 'visual riddles', and it's fun, and good luck! DH and I got 43, and then got stuck. My mom sent me the link, and got a few more afterward that she passed along, but we still can't get 2 - the guy with the lantern, and the reaper in the fence thing.

have fun!

also, due to some recent coming issues with my car, it looks like I'll be looking to trade sooner than later. I think I've got it narrowed down to 2 cars. I'm looking for a wagon type, something bigger than my little dodge, but not a van. God, not a van. Needs to have room for 2 carseats (no, no news or plans of news that way, thanks), and room in the trunk for one of those big stroller system things, a set of golf clubs, and maybe a playpen. So, my 2 choices are the Pontiac Vibe / Toyota Matrix (they're basically the same car, made in the same factory, even.) and the Mazda5. The only downs I can find about either are that all the reviews say about the Vibe / Matrix is that it's fun and stuff, but no real negatives, so I guess that's good. The only negatives about the Mazda are the 3rd row of seats is super tight, no room for big people or even normal sized adults, and it's lacking in kick / horsepower. The seats thing isn't really an issue though, because you have seating for 4 without the back row, and if you have that back row folded down, you get a super sweet trunk space for the aforementioned stuff.

so, opinions would be appreciated. I'd love to get like, a Passat wagon, but that's not going to happen. We're talking mid-range. I was thinking Saturn Vue / hybrid, but it hasn't gotten great reviews on any front, so I'm thinking no.

thanks! I'm off to try to finish this evil m&ms game.

The guy with the lantern is the shining.

And the reaper in the fence is the dead zone.

We have a Ford Escape and got a really fabulous deal on it. Right now it's a shame cause Sexy Boyfriend got it super-loaded but since we bought the business it's been functioning as a dog-transportation vehicle. (Yikes for the leather!)

Also, I looked a lot at the Dodge Caliber for use with the business but it's a bit too small - the same size I think as the Matrix etc, but much cheaper, and it looks pretty great.

I'm also quite interested in the Matrix, and would always choose Toyota over Pontiac. I think it's psychological.

Anyway, keep updating - I'm interested to see what you choose and how you like it!!!
