$1.5 trillion divided by 100 million is $15,000......

Worst drought since 1914 and not the only drought between.

Going back a few years, it had been an icy morning, but the sun was out and everywhere had thawed. Or so I thought. I came off the main road out of the city, wanting to turn right around the roundabout which is underneath the main road (this is in the UK).

Drove from Atlanta to Orlando with three co-workers to meet with a new client. One of my co-workers was a guy named Luke who was 5'3" but insisted riding shotgun because of his supposed ‘vertigo.’

Back when I had a ‘71 MGB I was driving it up twisty stretch of road near town that winds through a bit of a valley. Nailing the shifts, hearing the exhaust note off the nearby walls of the it was beautiful. Great fall day. Up beside me comes this late 996 Cab - one of the later iterations - being driven by a gorgeous…

I have driven through some awful weather, living in the snowbelt and all. I once managed to dodge a car that spun out to the right on I-94 when the driver tried to change lanes in slush. I followed her to the shoulder as she went off the road, and invited her to stay warm in my car while she called her sister for…

I once drove a friend to the airport at 4am. I had to be up at 4am, I call that effort pretty damn heroic. Fuck 4am forevermore, though.

Was going to a college class in my old BRZ and it was slightly damp. There’s a merge where the road your on curves onto the main road at like a 45 degree angle. I took the curve like I do everyday and lost the rear end. There was a white SUV to the left of me and I somehow managed to stay off of them, fishtailed…

Someone ran a blind stop sign while I was crossing the intersection (they had a stop sign, I did not). I somehow managed to swerve around them going like 45mph and nearly miss them. I got out to inspect the damage and there was merely a gouge from the screw on their license plate holder and a scuff on the bumper.

A Yamaha 750 Seca was my daily driver for about a year in 1990-91. Cruising along late one night along a rural highway a car came up on me quick and close, acting a fool. I ignored them a while till they got close enough to make me nervous and I put some distance between us. I slowed back down to cruise the speed…

I once hydroplaned about 600' on an interstate, but my “baby driver” moment was when I did a 270° spin in my little ‘85 Toyota truck on a rainy two-lane road on the way to school (I was 15-16). Both my friend and I stayed calm and he was even bringing up stuff from driver’s ed we learned a few months earlier (“pump…

Riding my Ducati to work one day across a bridge. Truck in front of the car I was following hits a deer carcass and gets it up on two wheels. Car in front of me dodges it and it is sliding across in front of me. Do the flick to where it is now and never look back.

I had a 68 XL, the two door. That is impressive

Years ago, travelling with my then girlfriend in my “awesome” 1968 LTD ... in the rain. Car suddenly stops to make a left turn where there is no left turn (I guess they were going to make a U-turn?). I hit the brakes long before anti-lock brakes, counter-steer for the skid, and go up a side street. Everyone was a bit…

Normally when faced with these kinds of things, I just move on to another store, but I was feeling a bit spicy that day and wanted to pin this guy down  with the actual regulations. Also, I got a blog out of it. 

“The Dolmette is the brainchild of Germany’s Rötger Feldmann. Even better, Feldmann isn’t a racer or professional motorcycle mechanic. He’s a cartoonist who created the popular German character Werner. He just wanted a wacky motorcycle with an unnecessarily complicated powertrain, so he convinced the chainsaw company…

Would that sentence have been more clear, less ambiguous, and overall better drafted, if the words “full of nudes” had been an apositive set off by commas between “laptop” and “at a repair shop”?

I’m constantly astounded by the level of mental gymnastics required to believe, simultaneously, that Hunter Biden is such an addled junkie that he left his laptop at a repair shop full of nudes, but is also so savvy a fraudster that he’s perfectly concealed he evidence of kickbacks and bribes to his father—the current…

Looks like alcantera on the seat though, which is pretty to look at, lovely to touch, yet awful for anything your body actually interacts with.

It’s suede so if you don’t brush it before pics it looks rumpled and like... well that.
