Why would anyone want to buy a lamp made out of concrete? What’s next? A toilet made out of crystal clear glass?

Pretty interesting stuff. So while BMW, Porsche and Mercedes have all announced they have a “Tesla killer” in the works wouldn’t you know its Jaguar that actually delivers the goods? Seems like a real contender for Tesla for once.

My Aunt has had her car stolen 5 times and her lawn mower was stolen twice from her garden shed. Someone did try to break in one evening but st off the alarm. Somehow she is ok with it. But her neighborhood is really hit and miss. One street down from hers has a crack house. Her street is for the most part fine and…

My Aunt has lived there for 45 years and lives in a quirky, artsy-fartsy neighborhood. I always have a great time whenever I visit. Yeah, its got crime issues but I now live in Oakland CA, which has even worse crime issues and its just like anywhere else: there are good and bad areas and if you stay away from the bad…

I recall we went to Opryland once. Boy did it suck too. I’m saying that only because we had Dollywood and Pigeon Forge. I remember the drive from Knoxville to Nashville was also kind of boring because most of the trip was utterly flat- like Kansas. Oh well- as a kid having been nowhere else I thought Nashville was…

I am originally from Knoxville TN. During the 80's and early 90's me and my family went to Nashville once a month for my father’s business. Back then not much was happening and downtown was sort of dead and depressing.

I went back around 10 years ago. Things had definitely changed for the better and we had a decent…

It REALLY frustrates me that on a nearly daily basis another shady story about Trump or any number of people in his admin have probably done something either unethical or illegal... and NOTHING happens. We all know he is as guilty as sin and yet there he is- somehow still with the title of “president”. Our political…

My..... precious!!!

Nobody ever buys cars as a kind of investment anyway.

Are those really “redneck states” though? I’m a Tennessee native and down here we have a whole nother’ level of redneckery

She’s 29? Why is it that nasty people always look a whole hell of a lot older. I pegged her for being at least 35 and maybe even 40.

So in other words none of the redneck states are buying EVs. PS: I am from the South so don’t flame me too much...

Its legal here and generally speaking the bikers will go to the furthest left lane of the freeway and the car drivers-if they’re polite- will scoot over a bit to the left to give them room.

I’ve never lived in New York. Any idea of a comparison of the level of cold the two get? I have no clue. As an ignorant California guy its basically that we feel that the entire northern half of the country to us is probably one giant glacier. Probably.

And boy do they have a LOT of those too. I recall after moving there that it seemed that every damned corner had one. Even in the subways. I miss their coffee.

For me its that I never really lived in areas that were that cold. I grew up in the South, then moved to Boston for a few years and absolutely hated the weather. I live in California now and that has totally ruined me. I now can barely stand it if it gets below 55. What used to feel warm and balmy now feels freezing.…

I’m sure all of those are true. But man.... those winters...

I lived in Boston for 2 years. The winters were.... AWFUL! As in it sometimes physically hurt to go outside. So yeah.... sorry, at least for me that’s a big no for me.

And the thing too is that it takes a MUCH smaller impact on a bike than a car to get seriously injured. I had a head on collision with a car that turned up the wrong way in a turn some 20 years ago. I was barely going 20MPH and he was going slower then that. The impact threw me off my bike onto the sidewalk. I was…

They also have a pretty nasty history from their earlier days if you care to take a peek...
