New GM Starts Where The Old GM Left Off

By Greg Michaels

On a relative basis, this is progress.

General Motors Co. said it canceled plans for a new Buick sport-utility vehicle announced Aug. 6 after potential customers said the model lacked the “premium characteristics” they expect from the brand.

    This is not how the day should be ended on DB. Bess there is a 12 year old kid with Down Syndrome in my neighborhood. Can you try him out as Greg’s replacement?

    IF this is where the old gm left off, then their “focus group” was poorly (if not randomly) selected, questions were mostly leading/biased, and the design of said vehicle, I shudder to think of the horror!

    “premium characteristics”
    That’s one of the funniest things I’ve read on DB today.

    That actually wasn’t bad. The title wasn’t laugh-out-loud funny, but could garner a chuckle or two from a few senior citizens. Best of all, the meat of the article was written by someone else.

    Greggums,
    I know you have been busy trying to keep up with all of the handbridge posts your boss has been posting, but would you be a dear and stop by Costco and pick me up a case of magnums (use my card). Latrell, Fuquan, Big Baby Jesus and Darnell said they were having some friends over from back in the day and that they wanted to run train on me or some silly thing like that. Anyhoo, see you later sweetie!
    Love,
    Mom
    ps: I know I don’t have to remind you, but if there are sounds coming from the bedroom that sound like a rhino in heat, don’t come in.
