    New car

    Despite being a True Christian I am nevertheless an admirer of science that actually improves peoples' lives like 5G cell phones and custom pillow technology involving a mix of different-sized pieces of open-cell poly-foam™. Today I saw something that really raises the bar for those of us looking for something special in a luxury high-end car.


    BMW unveils car that changes colour at touch of a button
    “You decide what you want to wear, what your social media status is – and you can decide what your car looks like,” said Stella Clarke, BMW’s project lead on the vehicle. Clarke added that the technology could be used to locate the car by making it flash when the driver is looking for it, or to display the vehicle’s battery capacity externally. "The possibilities with e-Ink are almost infinite".
    I don't see why NASA or the NIH can't invest our tax dollars and the brains of a generation on real science, like the color changing car, instead of bone-headed trips to space and boner pills.

    I know the rule one must wear clothes matching the color of the car his is driving. With my current car I have to wear the same outfit every day for years. With a car that changed color I would become an unpredictable sensation.
    Isaiah 24:1-3 Behold, the LORD maketh the earth empty (2)...as the taker of usury, so with the giver of usury to him. (3) The land shall be utterly emptied, and utterly spoiled: for the LORD hath spoken his word.

      Hi Johny,

      Have Leviticus 19:19 and Deuteronomy 22:11 expanded to cars? Just curious and I don´t want you to take on more burdens than you have to.

      Kind regards, Roland
      Jeremiah 6:21 Therefore thus saith the LORD, Behold, I will lay stumblingblocks before this people, and the fathers and the sons together shall fall upon them; the neighbour and his friend shall perish.

      Best wishes for the people in Ukraine.

        I suggest an alternate title: "BMW unveils another useless feature they can charge subscription fees for".

        Target demo ignores me, is occupied, rolling up a sleeve, trying to find a vein.

        When it can do tartan, lemme know.

          Very drolé Much. When the technology finally gets to the Automotive industry in Canada, you'll be first on the list.


          "The automotive industry in Canada consists primarily of assembly plants of foreign automakers, most with headquarters in the United States or Japan, along with hundreds of manufacturers of automotive parts and systems."

            While there were whores in the Bible (KJV1611), there is no mention of them traveling around in pimp-mobiles. Wheeled transportation is mentioned, but it was very basic.

            Now thou art commanded, this do ye; take you wagons out of the land of Egypt for your little ones, and for your wives, and bring your father, and come.

            - Genesis 45:19
            Hell's foundations quiver at the shout of praise;
            brothers, lift your voices, loud your anthems raise.
            ...and get off my lawn

              Yeah, sounds about right. How long do you figure until Brexit kills them, too?

                Yes well car industries come and go depending on who has the most Germans. As long as they keep propping up Western civilization and work on upping their breeding rate, it makes no difference which sweat labor Untermenschen assemble their fancy car parts.

                  Re: New car

                  Surely the more machines you have, the less people you need. Flooding the market with people who don't really know what a machine is sounds a recipe for disaster. Or a film. America invented planes. Britain invented trains. Germany invented automobiles.

                  Does anyone else keep their old cars when they get a new one? The prettiest cars were all made in the 1920s. Maybe in the 2020s someone will do that again?

                    Lets cut to the chase. Zeke needs a new airplane more than anyone needs a new car.

                    I've decided to forgo the annual vehicle upgrade for a couple of years, and send the funds onto the airplane fund.

                      Excellent point, Brother Ander. If the new color-changing technology can be modified to spell out Bible verses on the side of an Airbus then actually I can see a need for this.

                      A fine gesture. I also have shelved employee bonuses and pay raises for the last 3 years and donated 10% of the savings to the airplane fund. You've inspired me to increase it to 15%.

                        That's so beautifully generous it brings a (manly) tear to my eye. Your natural humbleness prevents you from seeking it out, but you richly deserve praise for this. In fact, I'm inspired. One of my maids, Marisol, has a begging jar on my motel lobby counter with a sob story about her little cousin Esperanza having cancer and the family needing money. There's $137.19 in the jar. It would be much better spent by Pastor Zeke, so I'm sending it to Freehold. Praise Jesus!
                        I was sinking deep in sin far from the peaceful shore,
                        Very deeply stained within, sinking to rise no more;
                        But the Master of the Sea heard my despairing cry,
                        From the waters lifted me, now safe am I!
