...just like the music execs who fume and rant about "those damn hackers stealing artists' music," the L.A. Times story quoted an executive at a pattern making company who called the several hundred online pattern swappers (mostly middle aged housewives) "the scourge of all that is decent and right." Please...

With all this exuberance it's strange that the Magliozzis would write In Our Humble Opinion: Car Talk's Click and Clack Rant and Rave (Perigee Books; $20), a 268-page book in which the brothers take four-page turns complaining. They whine about car manufacturers, but also about Starbucks, the Founding Fathers and bottled water. Much of it is smart, but none of it works as well as the radio show. Mostly because you can't hear them laugh...

...Dennis: Oh, Foutsie. I don't want to get off on a rant here, but how could he have seen it coming?

Then he gets back to sneering, throwing out the angriest of accusations even at his milder detractors. He can rant energetically for 15 minutes at a go, claiming his purported atrocities are concoctions of his enemies. "Pure fabrication" are words he repeats over and over, and he has nothing but disgust for nonmembers of his Revolutionary United Front...

...Unfailingly Supportive. For those who get stressed (and yes, sometimes that's me), it makes such a difference to have friends who get you to laugh with a stupid e-mail, a shot or good food. Who listen to you rant just long enough before sending you off to call the guy or start the paper. Who are always there to remind you what you really value. They're most definitely the best...
