I’m 5'10" and my son is 6'2" and sure it was tight, but with how the seats are made it wasn’t too bad. Their seats are basically plastic shells with a thin coating of padding, the back side is a bit hollowed out compared to a standard airline seat.

I’m not saying it was the lap of luxury, but when I can fly a family…

I’m just saying that my flight must have been hijacked by competent pilots and flight attendants that cared.

My travel has been limited to JetBlue, Delta, Southwest, United, American and Spirit. I’d rank those as...

I totally agree. Where’s the “your favorite coffee maker under $75" poll?

I’d be... “Cool, whatcha got? Maybe we can go to the range sometime...”

Heh. I’m pretty much the complete opposite... It’s not that I can’t change my own oil or haven’t done it in the past, it’s just that I don’t see it as worth my time for what’s usually a minimal savings. Having said that, I do most of my own repairs to my vehicles to include replacing A/C compressors, spark plugs,…

You’re slightly off in your timing.

I used to work for Cingular in their corporate headquarters. It was a great place to work. It’s a shame that the corporate culture from SBC (masquerading as AT&T) won out. From my perspective the merger was a nightmarish step back in time.

Scooby Doo: Mystery Incorprated is leaving Feb 1st. I highly recommend that you binge watch it this weekend.

Unless you mistake is not scheduling or testing your backups....

I have used CoPilot with an old, off service, phone (T-Mo MyTouch 4G) as a replacement for a GPS. Add in DailyRoads Voyager for a dash cam, and I was very happy camper. Especially if you travel in areas where service is questionable.

We were recently looking for a new (to us) car for the wife’s daily driver. The kids are growing up and moving out, so we don’t need a 9 passenger Suburban anymore. We ended up at the local Toyota dealer, brought in by a 1 in 1,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 chance to win a new car or one of a metric shit-ton of…

I’m a messy desk sort of guy, but for certain things (especially cords) I’m pretty anal. I wrap my lights like the image below, it makes it super easy to plug in next year to check for bad bulbs. Plus the size of the bundle helps me to identify the relative length.

Worst Ride: Fiat XL. As a rental I thought it would be fun... Like a SUV but cuter... Instead I got a behemoth with a worse turn radius than my Suburban.

GM always frustrates me....

The real question is how much did you pay for it...

I say you buy the ‘85 BiTurbo from the latest Nice Price or Crack Pipe. After all, it won’t loose much value....

We once bought a hundred year old farm house in rural Texas. The first thing we did was gut the kitchen. In addition to two desiccated mice we also found a poison trap that a mouse had been using as a bed and a snake skin.

My only problem with Nice is that the beaches (I saw back in the mid 90’s) were all pebbles, not sand.
