#3, I saw a white Phantom downtown yesterday. Only one person in it, an old white-haired LaJolla Republican type. Lucky old fucker.

#2, Back in the '90s, Rolls Royce cars/Bentley went up for sale... everyone assumed that BMW would purchase them since they supplied the V12 engines that Rolls Royce used.

...but at the last second, Volkswagen popped up and made a HUGE offer for the company, and RR/B agreed... here's where it got complicated...

Rolls Royce cars do NOT own the rights to the "Rolls Royce" name nor the emblem they use. That is owned by Rolls Royce jet engines, which lease the rights to use the name and emblem to the car company. They liked BMW, and did NOT like VW's "eBay sniping"* style of purchasing the company. They threatened to disallow the use of the name and emblem unless a compromise was reached...

The compromise was, VW would own both RR and Bentley, but then give up RR to BMW on January 1, 2003, keeping Bentley...so for the first time in over 50 years, Rolls Royce and Bentley are now separate.

*Term used for humor for those familiar with eBay :P

#14, Where did that come from? I asked what the car was, and you gave me a sarcastic answer. So I laughed.
