Stalking makes it to easy for us.. therefore boring... and creepy!!!
wow that was a lot of reading... Ok let's see topics I need to comment on:
Working out: Kyle and I are ordering this video workout thing that is supposed to be awesome called the P90x system, which is supposed to kick your ***. We'll see though.
***** and a Booty: I have them.. that's enough for me so I'm not touching this department.
Yadi: I like the vii tails, go for it.

Mmmm I didn't read the post whoring today... so I am guessing this is why I am confused
You can get away from the cops but not Motorola!!

So what would happen if, say, a nimble little sports car with a skilled driver at the helm took on these big four-door brutes through a maze of urban streets? To find out, we cut loose our long-term Mazda MX-5 Miata around a simulated city grid at EVOC and...
It was no contest. In just a few turns, even with only 170 horsepower on tap, the tossable, bantamweight Miata had the 340-horse Charger flashing its strobes at thin air. At the end of the lap, the Charger was more than six seconds adrift, the Impala was trailing by about seven seconds, and the Crown Vic was nearly 10 seconds back in the dust. Against our long-term Mitsubishi Evo MR-brandishing 286 turbocharged horsepower and four-wheel drive-the gap was more than two seconds greater still. To try to even the score, we also ran some laps in BMW's new R 1200 RT-P police motorcycle (see sidebar), but while it proved quicker than the sedans, even it couldn't catch the Miata. At the end of the day, the performance gap was already so lopsided we didn't have the heart to run the Porsche 911 Carrera 4 on the course. But now you know: Any movie that shows a cop sedan hanging on the tail of a sports car through downtown L.A. (or a tight mountain road) is strictly science fiction.
Ah, but in the real world, the story is more complex. Out on the open highway, that asphalt Serengeti Plain where cops hunt speeders like lions stalking gnus, the balance shifts. There, where horsepower closes the gap, a Hemi Charger (with a top speed electronically limited to 145 mph) could easily rein in a screaming Miata.
What's more, even if you're driving a Ferrari Enzo, the cops have countermeasures. As in, spike strips, helicopters, fixed-wing aircraft, night-vision equipment-and other cop cars. As the old police saying goes, "There isn't a car in the world that can outrun a Motorola."
So there you have it: The Dodge Charger is mas macho, the Chevy Impala is lean and surprisingly mean, and the Ford Crown Victoria is as honest and dependable as Andy Sipowicz. Not that any of that really matters in a police chase. Whatcha gonna do when they come for you? You're gonna get caught, boy.
