...test track really did not cost very much compared to Chrysler's total marketing budget which stretched into the tens of millions of dollars each year. But, it looks bad to have the firm's CEO hot dogging in a 4x4 on artificial sand and boulders when he has just taken billions of dollars from the federal government. Even Ford (F), which has not asked the US for a dime, will not be doing much beyond trucking in its latest models and giving them an extra coat...
...legs, attach the bridles, lay out saddle blankets, and braid the tails to make room for back swings. Nick jumps onto a golf cart with a large rake attached to the back, and the vehicle wheezes and rattles across the indoor arena in sweeping symmetrical arcs to smooth the sand, or “footing,” which is looser than most other indoor fields. Mid-way, Nick gets out of the car to swiftly scoop up a pile of thick excrement. The next team T-shirt, he thinks, should say, “We Scoop Shit...

We had been traveling slowly, luckily on a dirt road rather than asphalt, and there were lots of people around to help...

We had excellent Mexican food at the new Reef Resort (Road to Serendipity, Sihanoukville; +855-012-315-338; bookings@reefresort.com.kh), a boutique hotel, and practically fell asleep afterward on the huge pillows spread out on the sand at Purple Lounge (at about the midpoint of Serendipity Beach). The town's former main drag, a 10-min. ride northwest of that area, is called Victory Hill. The crowd there comprises mostly older Western men and their young Cambodian companions, which is a little creepy...
