Audi A4 Avant 1.8T Quattro

Picked up my new 2002 Audi A4 Avant 1.8T Quattro tonight at Sewickley Car Store. Pics are not very good but you can see a few details. This is Amulet Red. Better pics to follow when the sun comes up! The unwashed masses would refer to this as a station wagon. Insiders put it like this: "The D pillars make for a stiffer performance car." Saying the car has ESP is well, true.

Dave Winer blogs Slashdot:



A picture named cox.gifAlan Cox, one of the leads of Linux: "Things like XML-RPC, SOAP and the stuff on top of them are designed to 'interwork through firewalls'. A better phrase would be 'go through the firewall like a knife through butter in a way that prevents the companies involved monitoring the activity.'"  [Scripting News]


My favorite quote:



I know I'm getting older too. There comes that certain point in life when you actually find things like furniture catalogues interesting. As a friend summed it up "I have found in me the urge to buy power tools".
