I'll have to just go along with the Cap'n here, cuz what he said is right, especially about question 4.

Except the bonus essay part.
The Audi A3 kicks so much ass because it is smart, stylish, handsome, sexy, alluring, fast, responsive, gripping and slightly aloof, all at once. It is neither the overly-accesorized rod of an overhormoned youth nor the sleek but conservative sedan of the comfortably upper-management middle-aged suburbanite, but is rather the seductively impish invitation of a boyish rake with the selective taste of quality over quantity and the wind-tousled look of adventure beckoning with a slight nod to the rewards of overthrowing propriety and whisking off to a whimsical afternoon.

btw...
you are not old enough to claim a mid-life crisis. You have to be at least my age first.

CAG totally plagiarized that paragraph from an Audi user's group. I know it. Now I just have to prove it so I can get her kicked out of school. Actually, it's not so much a paragraph as a Faulknerian run-on sentence.

As for middle age, it's all defined by how long you plan to live. I don't plan to see 70, based on my family tree, so this is indeed middle age.

Spend the kids' inheritance, I say!
