I think...
VistaVision is wide screen film from the 50s. I Know this because my wife watches the Ten Commandments movie every Easter (why Easter she has never explained) so I have seen it at least 42 times.

If I had the money to burn, I'd sign up for a Moon trip. A trip to the Moon is like a vacation. You can go, spend a few days there, and be back in less than two weeks.

Mars is a commitment. No thanks.

Is that "sometimes", like spring during the cherry blossom season or autumn when the leafs start to drop? Or is it when the grey moon dust gets yucky having been hit too many times with golf clubs and balls..

It is everywhere. We have a Volt. It's excellent for what it does. Day to day is all electric, but no charger network gambling on long trips. The charger game keeps improving but still pretty crap. I think it was a good "not quite there yet" buy. Plenty of go and 40-50 miles electric range (weather depending).
