After reading your account, I think you should read this story from The Oatmeal:
Why we should be eating horses instead of riding them http://theoatmeal.com/story/eat_horses

I've never had a mortal enemy before...
Do we start with pithy comments and disparaging remarks about each others automotive history...or do we move directly to hatching evil plots in out underground lairs/garages?

I don't know if it counts as under appreciated but the Honda S2000 is a pretty decent competitor to the MX-5. I may be biased as I own one, but it is a great drivers car.

I run a Bodum French Press if it is just me (or a Technivorm Moccamaster if I need to serve more people). The biggest thing I have found is fresh grinding...I grind the beans every morning (Breville Ikon conical burr grinder FTW!!!). Every bean tastes better if it is ground fresh each...oh, and I no longer stockpile coffee...don't let it go stale.

I'll drink it black or with 1 sugar and chocolate soy milk...and I'll admit to drinking the above mentioned dessert abominations...as dessert

I'm kinda digging the Nash! The satin green paint, and those wheels looks awesome...it should be a runabout on an Air Force base from the 60's

yes it is at an art gallery, but still:

hahahahaha, its so true. The other car I see a lot of 60 something guys driving is the scion xB...I guess the mentality is, "it is marketed at kids, so it must make me look young."

It looks like a sponge holder/ squeezer, to dry kitchen sponges or maybe a frame to "program" punch cards for ye olde computers.

you are thinking about either the Devon Tread: http://www.hodinkee.com/blog/2010/4/19/the-devon-...

or the Tag Heuer Monaco v4: http://www.hodinkee.com/blog/2011/9/22/spotted-a-...

I stand by my calibre 12 Monaco

I have to add:
Scenes from a Multiverse (http://amultiverse.com/) each day has a new destination in the multiverse, and then there is a showcase showdown to pick the destination on Friday.
and
Alien Loves Predator...yes the Alien and Predator are the Odd couple roommates living in NYC...its done with clever action figure photography: http://alienlovespredator.com/. Sadly this one is on a hiatus, but the old strips are worth reading through
