Car and Driver Issues

Okay, so I love Car and Driver. It is by far the best automobile magazine out there. I have a subscription to it, as you can probably tell, but there is one thing I do not like. Recently, they have been sending out the issues way to early in my opinion. I got my April Edition at the beginning of March, and May at the beginning of April and so on. This, in my opinion, is way to early. I would expect the issue to come midway through the month before. So April comes in mid March. They didn’t used to be this way. They were really bad actually. I would get say, my October issue in November. Why can’t they just figure it out. When I got SkyNews, I got it mid month, and everything was fine.

Oh, and how about this. For the past couple months, I have been getting the World of Wheels magazine for free. They keep sending it to me “Compliments of World of Wheels.” I’ve gotten like every issue for the past 6 issues or so. Why would I subscribe if you are just going to send it to me? I think it is quite funny actually. Well that is my rant for today, look for another one soon.


Spam Comments

Okay, so on the Halo 2 and UPS post there is endless spam comments that keep getting posted. The one thing I don’t get, is that I have it so that you have to register to post a comment, and I have had it like this since I started using Wordpress. I just don’t get it. Whatever is allowing them to do it, I am really hoping my new action will keep them from posting. I have made it so no comments are allowed on that post. We will see if this works.

I am soooo fake pre-loading this image so the navigation doesn't skip while loading the over state.  I know I could use the sliding doors technique to avoid this fate, but I am too lazy.
