People still buy large gas sucking trucks then freak out about gas prices up from demand and will toss out the party in power that cannot control gas prices. It just happens over and over.

It’s exactly how so many “regular” cars get saved. Someone finds one and just grabs it because it’s interesting (or more interesting than a current car) and the price is right. I found a Chevy Caprice station wagon of about the same era as that LTD at a car show a few years ago. It was for sale, super low miles, and…
I guess so. I wasn’t proposing that as a generic solution for solving poverty - not that I think one exists.
The line about your dad being a chemist reminded me of this little rhyme
The novelty of it. Remember, just about every car was just a used car at one time or another. Nobody was interested in Ford LTD station wagons, but turn up in one now and people will look, either because they’re too young to know what it is or they’re old enough to remember when they were common. Do I think they’re…
Regarding Alzheimer’s, there is some very early data indicating that use of Viagra may prevent it. I’m hoping this will lead to future investigation, and that it will turn out to be true. I’m in my late 30's and started taking it about a year ago, I would love to learn that it has benefits beyond its…
Likely staged for the camera with water on a new plate. One also doesn’t label plates upside down with still liquid samples in them. Most journalism photos I’ve seen taken in labs the PI and the lab get all dressed up to stage it. Many PIs don’t do much benchwork (there’s a horde of graduate students and post-docs for…
Imagine your teeth are a tile floor.
Keanu.
I always figured that WWIII was why people in the 23rd-24th Centuries only listened to Gilbert & Sullivan and read Conan Doyle. Most of the popular culture from the 20th and 21st Centuries had been wiped out, probably due to nobody being able to recover the DRM keys. Only material in the public domain was saved.
“Had a bad experience about five years ago, put too much ketchup on my burger”
Um... that’s the Karen-est example of a “bad experience”. Oh no, I am forced to eat this burger with too much ketchup. There is no other possible solution, and it will haunt me forever, that someone squeezed too hard on a ketchup bottle…
It would be absolutely awesome, if for a scene ,Picard is looking at Sisko in the distance , a scene from DS-9 and comments Bell sure looks like a Commander I met once .
The key is that these concepts need to be taught the right way — otherwise the wrong message could be taken away.
The trauma of the prep and procedure has been greatly exaggerated. It’s one day of pooping a lot then the exam the next day. My physician’s office uses twilight anesthesia (trade name, “versed”) which has no aftereffects for me or most people. It’s just not a big deal.
Annnnd......here comes the technician!
Let’s start with the van itself. These things are actually tougher than a coffin nail. The engine, while turbocharged, does have the benefit on multiport EFI, which is something NOT offered on the other four cylinder vans. The 2.2 and 2.5 were pretty ok, then along came the…
How can Back to the Future not be on this list?
Me. Fallout was fuckin’ awesome.
The amount of drunk driving deaths per year is less than the COVID deaths from this week. We’ll pass laws demanding some as-yet nonexistent driving technology but the slightest inconvenience to prevent COVID is freedom-hating communism.
