I’ve been car shopping lately and thinking about what mileage I need in the new vehicle. The cars that I like and are more fun to drive hover just under 30mpg while the 35+ models tend to be a bit mushy on the gas (or tiny) Today I came across this: http://www.comcast.net/articles/finance/20090811/US.GM.Volt.Mileage/ GM is unveiling a car that get 230MPG in the city!

We went to Table 31 at the base of the Comcast center for dinner tonight. It was an excellent restaurant week menu.

Well at least I think that he did, but I’ll know for sure tomorrow if I accidentally ingested some wheat.
