I used to like the looks of the Corvette, but the C8 is just...butt ugly. As are almost anything Chevy currently sells. I saw a ‘70 Camaro and a ‘69/70 Chevelle SS this morning, and I thought, “Wow, has Chevy and GM lost their way!”. 54 years after they were made, they still look great. I wish I could live long enough…

I would like to see ads on TV showing how common driving issues should be handled. I took a “defensive driving” class a couple of times in the past, required by whatever insurance company we had’s requirement. The number of people taking the course that didn’t know how a green arrow worked was jaw dropping! There…

I don’t know if he is like me or not, but going to bed any earlier than about 430am, in my case, and his could well be 3 am or so,  is going to affect his sleep pattern negatively. Living as an extreme night owl and having any sort of job, even a night one, is going to be a compromise of sleep quality. I have refused…

I’m kind of surprised that more people haven’t had a hot can of pop/soda explode on or near them. A long time ago, we had a picnic and in an old aluminum cooler was a can of 7UP that was left inside it after the ice had long melted. The cooler sat in the sun in Las Vegas in August in the bed of my pickup. I picked up…

If you have a business that depends on a vehicle, especially a Tesla, you would be a buffoon not to have a backup. His first act of buffoonery was buying a Tesla CT in the first place. I had a guy doing snow removal for a parking lot back in the winter of ‘13-14. He had one vehicle, an F250, and the engine blew up and…

A family friend who I spent many hours riding with him and his kids in their station wagons had a light show going on at night. Cobra Cam 88 tube CB radio mounted under the dash of the Ford Country Squire wagon. It had a lighted S meter, and channel selector. He had the dash lights up on maximum, and the dome light…

My mother lived in a gated community with a lot of weird rules, the one that was ignored by a lot of the homeowners was the colors allowed when painting or building a house. In the ‘70's in Las Vegas, the MOB was still in control of a lot of hotels and unions, and to be honest, the police at some level. When a fairly…

A friend of mine just totalled his 2021 Challenger Scat Pack when some girl, on the phone, of course, blew the stop sign and he T-Boned her at about 40 MPH (55 speed limit). She was driving her dad’s 6 month old Mercedes, and both cars were a write off. He went to buy another Challenger at the dealership near his…

If I had a billion dollars, I would still be driving myself, to the point I was a corpse behind the wheel. They will have to pry my cold dead hands off that wheel!

Him getting one day suspensions is just insane. He should have been taken off the road, permanently, as soon as the second one happened. The fact he was out on the road makes the State Police negligent and they need to pay, and he needs to go to jail for a few years, and part of his community service or probation…

The most disgusting bathroom I have ever been in on a trip was in some suburb north of Columbus, Oh. It was in a gas station/convenience store that looked pretty good at first glance. My friend, his then wife, and I had been to the Springnationals at National Trail Raceway, and I had eaten a ton of the great tasting…

Putting them on TV is probably the best way to get this resolved in a hurry. Clueless businesses, and crooked ones, along with bureaucrats hate being exposed on TV. I had dealings with a car dealership about 43 years ago where I bought a used car with a warranty added on. Three days later, the AC compressor exploded,…

Nobody I actually knew, except me, was hurt by fireworks, and I was only hurt trying to make my own. My best friend and I had a pile of powder removed from those plastic ring caps under my right hand. Thinking back, I should have moved it away every couple of rings, but I didn’t. You had to squeeze the caps to get the…

We had neighbors, the oldest son was my sister’s BF at one time, and they were the big fireworks salesmen. They would borrow their uncle’s station wagon, take their station wagon, and a cousin from out of town’s Ford van, go up to someplace in Michigan and load up. They made two trips, one came to their house in…

When my dog Gus was alive, I dreaded the period from Memorial day to the end of July. The bottle rockets were his worst nightmare come to life. The neighbors always had grosses of the bigger ones that would scream and then explode. They would fire a half dozen at once, and as soon as he heard the first scream and pop,…

If God exists, Ted, and a whole bunch of his GOP buddies are going to be in serious trouble. 

I hate the rear end, but I don’t hate it more than the outgoing Camaro from the doors back. I don’t understand what was going on with GM styling of it, and the C8 Corvette. 

Good luck with that. I have had several friends, all gone now, who had severe, life changing injuries they got while riding. Only one of them could be blamed for causing the wreck, he was popping a wheelie and hit a spot of antifreeze and broke his leg in about the worst way possible. He ended up getting his hip…

I remember every one of these, except the “Apple Juice!” one. I don’t know if that was a regional ad, or somehow I managed to miss it. Anyway, it gets my vote for the worst of all of them. Maybe it’s because I hate musicals? 

You should have seen the lines and the traffic jam when the first Krispy Kreme opened when they reentered the Toledo area. It was insane. You could already buy them in a lot of grocery stores locally, but I guess the thrill of warm ones made fresh was too much of a draw.
