BTW, I had a new set of Michelin XI-2s mounted on my Prius yesterday. The XI-2s I have for my LS will probably be installed the week after Thanksgiving. This way, if the temp gets back into the 50s over Thanksgiving, I don't have to put excessive wear on a set of winter tires.

My Lex has been there many times this year and will continue to visit the comfy confines of Lambeau this winter with the Dunlop Graspic snow tires on it now (they worked pretty slick in the snow storm we had last week).

No snows pay alot of taxes here in wisco to scape HWY 41. Cadman beer beef sticks, lb of 5 year cheddar and lb of fresh squeky curds from Union Star cheeses says the Lions need the nice warm dome! Invite still stands for cold beer on site!
The Packer defense looked better Monday and who else is better? SF? New coach, Alex Smith who knows! I thought the Lions would give em a run.

Just to clarify, this wager is for the outcome of the January 1st game at Lambeau, not the Thanksgiving game at Ford Field.

Yes, I'm probably tha last person one would expect to buy a Prius. But, this summer my wife's caregivers said that they were having difficulty transferring her into the Subaru because of the frameless windows (nothing for her to grab when standing). We all expected her to require additional cancer treatments, so I decided a Prius would fit the bill with larger doors with window frames, more front seat room, and lower entry height. Due to the shortage, used Prius prices were stupid high so I waited about a month for a new one to arrive. By the time the car arrived, Connie had just entered the hospital for what was supposed to be a short stay. Alas, she never got a chance to ride in the car.
The car is OK with excellent MPG, but not nearly as comfortable as the LS430. I use it as a truck to haul stuff and take the dog places. Since I drive an average of 33K miles per year, it also keeps the miles I put on the LS430 to a reasonable level. We'll see how much I miss having an AWD vehicle this winter and then decide if I keep it and the LS430 or make some change.

Cadman, Sorry so late had to get the rabbit to the hospital for dehydration and then to Lambeau. What a game, seemed like the Packers just wanted it more IMO. Hope ya beat NO so we can throttle ya with our first string.

I ventured out in the cold today to Meijer (based in Grand Rapids, MI) and, with some help of their fine associates, came up with some popular Michigan products.
Front row:
- Jiffy Muffin Mix from Chelsea Milling in Chelsea, MI
- Regular & Chocolate Covered Dried Cherries from Shoreline Fruit inTraverse City, MI
- Sanders Hot Fudge from Clinton Twp, MI
Back row:
- Garden Fresh Gourmet Tortilla Chips from Ferndale, MI (They're famous for great salsa, but it has to be kept cold.)
- Better Made Sweet BBQ Potato Chips from Detroit, MI
- Kelloggs Corn Flakes from Battle Creek, MI (We didn't say the food had to be exciting).
OK Warm, everything is boxed and ready to ship. PM me your shipping address and the goodies will be on their way.
