Does anyone have any advice for buying a manual car and not actually knowing how to drive manual? I know some friends who know how to drive manual but I don't have any car to learn on at the moment. I'm considering getting a new car and I'm at least considering getting a third pedal.

There's actually a good chance that'll happen. My job is about 25 miles away. I guess I should rephrase my question. I'm looking at getting a brand new car so how would I handle the test drive? Do I drive an automatic and then tell them I want a manual if I like it?

If you have a micro center near you, consider going there for your motherboard and processor. They have really good bundle deals on those and overall pretty good prices.

I drive a 07 Nissan Altima and I almost drive 50 miles a day to and from work. When it's not winter, I can get anywhere from 27 - 30 mpg, depending on how much highway driving I do and how much traffic that I get stuck in . In long trips, I've gotten 31+ mpg. My car may be boring but it's probably not nearly as expensive as a hybrid and is easy on the gas. Don't the batteries on hybrids start going bad after 7 years? Or am I misremembering this?

I saw what looked like a stock Plymouth laser on the highway today. It was driven by a middle aged looking guy so I'm hoping it doesn't get riced out.

I found it today that I didn't get the internal position that I applied for. I had a feeling after the interview that I want going to get it though so no surprise there. On a happier note, I hit 100k miles on my car this morning.

Since it's starting to get nice outside, what do you guys like to listen to when you're driving?

Usually, I listen to NPR or podcasts but I think I'm starting to burn out on both. Post-rock was always something I meant to get into, anyone have recommendations on where to start? I used to listen various forms of metal but I found out that I always tended to speed more when listening to Thrash. In other news, my PSU fried the other week but Corsair sent me a new one and now my computer is back in business.
