I thought the deal was that when set on "intermittent," the wipers stopped working altogether when the car is at a stop.

My favorite feature is that after a "wash," the wipers wait for 60 seconds or so, and then wipe one more time to catch the drippies. We can all learn a little something from that.

Dude, I don't know what a 'stro is, and if the whole reference is to baseball, how can you even think about that during World Cup Semi-finals week, also called "July Madness."

I harbor no hate for any sports team -- most of those guys are gooned out on the juice, anyway.

A "stro" is short for Astros, AKA your colleague in the NL Central division in baseball! Cinncinatti is the new team to beat buddy, y'all are 4 games ahead in the division!

But to be fair, I don't know anything about the world cup and so called "July Madness"... that one actually made me laugh out loud...

GOL GOL GOL GOL GOL!

Hey man, even if you don't know anything about soccer, you owe it to yourself to watch these last games. They're the best of the world, and it's only every 4 years. Tuesday's match between Germany and Italy is at 1pm Mountain time. It very well could be the best match of the world cup. And for the record, I'm not into soccer either, but I do watch the world cup. Later.

Understood, ELP.
I always watch the last three innings of the last game of the World Series. Three innings a year is enough for me. Oh yeah, sometimes it's difficult to tell which will be the last game so I may miss the darn thing altogether.

The NBA is the same way. Why don't they save us all a lot of time and just give each team 100 points, and let them play for 5 minutes?

Fortunately, I'm not into watching sports like a couch potato; much rather do something else, even work on the yard. Basketball and golf are the most boring to me, so I don't watch (or play) them at all. Sometimes I watch the superbowl, if I don't have anything better to do, but mostly to have a good time with friends (I don't care who wins). I grew up in Mexico City, where the only 2 sports I was exposed to were soccer and tennis, so those are the 2 I like best, but only watch the world cup and 1 or 2 tennis finals a year. What I do watch are most MotoGP races, and a few car races a year (Indy 500, among others). Have a happy 4th gang.

Sorry buddy. But the post was dead anyway (answer was 'NO'), so I figured the hijacking was okay . Later.
