Jellybeans On Wheels

Rolls Royce, Mercedes Benz, any of the Big Three's emissions, it doesn't matter. They all look alike to the untutored Ming and the look isn't one that sells cars.

If you ever saw a 1959 Cadillac Eldorado and you stayed alert as all of it went by, you'd never mistake it for any of the jellybeans that pass for cars today.

Since Ming has the stray moment not otherwise devoted to wringing his hands over the stock market's demise as a source of obscene riches, he'll solve Detroit's problems without even extorting an outrageous consulting fee.

All those cretins need do is bring back the 1957 Studebaker Golden Hawk, the 1957 Lincoln Premiere and the gorgeous 1957 Chrysler 300C. But oh no, not those louts. They would rather now come out with something yet worse than their jellybean specials. Their latest attempts to bring back mass bus transit look like bicycles with boxes on top.

Couldn't they make at least one more 1957 Pontiac Safari for Ming to tool around in once he wallows in that cornucopia of cash that Dendreon will, however tardily, disgorge?

Speaking of jellybeans, there is one of those coupé Cadillac Eldorado (Probably from around the sixties) somewhere in my neighborhood.
You can see it from time to time in summer. It displays it's fantastic pink color on sunny days.
Nice car. Unfortunately, to fill the tank here in Europe, the poor Ming would have to part with all his Dendreon shares.
