a.d._510_n_ok Posted November 3, 2014 Report Share Posted November 3, 2014 wow. end of an era. With little ceremony, Fiat Chrysler Automobiles drops Pentastar logo http://blog.hemmings.com/index.php/2014/11/03/with-little-ceremony-fiat-chrysler-automobiles-drops-pentastar-logo/ Quote Link to comment
paradime Posted November 3, 2014 Report Share Posted November 3, 2014 Chrysler was a doomed brand for decades and it's been tossed around like a hot potato from one savior investor to another, including the Government bail out aka you and me. If Chrysler hopes to revive it's position as one of the big three, it needs to wash off the old image and reinvent a new identity. With chrysler's decline, people/the market associate the Pentastar icon with failure on some level. I think it's a smart move to clean the proverbial closet and buy a fresh new look. I also think it was smart to do this without a bunch of sentimental fan fare. It makes it that much easier to accept the next product symbol. If you've seen the new TV ad with the two Dodge brothers racing each other it's clear Chrysler is changing it's identity, it's look, and it's target market. Reintroducing the youth market to Mopar = $. It makes it look like the era of "Fine Corinthian Leather" never happened. Quote Link to comment

hobospyder Posted November 3, 2014 Report Share Posted November 3, 2014 I would get so confused if I went down there. I use my phone for time and date and I don't feel like paying international roaming fees Quote Link to comment
VFR800 Posted November 3, 2014 Report Share Posted November 3, 2014 We get each new years eve people (famous celebs with more $$ than they know what to do with) fly into Sydney for the NYE celebrations here and then charter a plane to go to Canberra (Nations capital) airport and fly to somewhere like Singapore or Hong Kong and celebrate it again there. Why they charter a plane to Canberra from Sydney is cause Canberra airport is the only one without an outgoing flight curfew after 12 midnight. Quote Link to comment
paradime Posted November 4, 2014 Report Share Posted November 4, 2014 Shit, I have enough trouble staying up for one NYE party. If I had that kind of money I'd go somewhere that didn't give a flying fart about calendars, watchs, or cell phones... you know, like my man cave. 1 Quote Link to comment

Yeah,I've done more than my fair share of partying hard and now live the quiet life so I don't go in for all that stuff. Quote Link to comment
paradime Posted November 4, 2014 Report Share Posted November 4, 2014 With maturity you come to realize New Years Eve is amateur night. Why go out when you will over pay for the cover charge and drinks at some pathetically contrived formal party with a bunch of lightweights. Then play slalom with a bunch of drunk ass fools trying to avoid all the sobriety check points all on a night where you are statistically less likely to get laid than any night of the year? Thanks I'll pass. 2 Quote Link to comment

tr8er Posted November 4, 2014 Report Share Posted November 4, 2014 all on a night where you are statistically less likely to get laid than any night of the year? Thanks I'll pass. Huh? I bet you meant to say it is statistically the most likely night to get laid multiple times. Quote Link to comment
paradime Posted November 4, 2014 Report Share Posted November 4, 2014 Hell, Thursdays are more productive. NYE is so contrived it's had all the spontaneity sucked out of it before it starts. Any weekend at the Pennant in Mission Beach San Diego and I'll show you what true abundance looks like. Quote Link to comment
tr8er Posted November 4, 2014 Report Share Posted November 4, 2014 But then you'd need to sleep with San Diego girls. Jk. I've got plenty of good reasons to appreciate SD. Quote Link to comment
angliagt Posted November 4, 2014 Report Share Posted November 4, 2014 Meanwhile,back in reality (the real world that we live in). Let's deal with REAL problems - like what is Kim Khadarsian having for breakfast? Quote Link to comment
