Gotcha. Thanks!

Genuine curiosity*, what is the “white woman’s version of the Henrietta Lacks story”?

So true! The only reason I even have the base U-Verse TV package is for the discount to my internet package. To get to a package that includes ESPN would cost me an additional $60 / month. Where as Sling TV with ESPN only costs $20 / month and no annual contract, I only pay for it during college football season.

Smaller... Milford.

When we moved to Texas, we did the obligatory thing and bought a Suburban. (We did have 4 kids, and also purchased a travel trailer). But over time the rear differential didn’t like the travel trailer... A neighbor had the same Suburban but with the beefier diff, hadn’t been making his payments due to some medical…

It’s 1990 and I’m visiting some old friends. We’re just riding around in my ‘86 XR4Ti. We come up to a stop light and initially plan to turn left. While waiting for the light to turn green, we change our plans and decide to turn right, go by Mike’s work (the skating ring) and see if any of the staff want to party. …

Ah, but how to you relieve the “Morning Glory*” effect the next day?

I think your respirator was a bit loose...

My mother owned a 1st gen Tempo and hated it. She complained the entire time she owned. I kept telling her to never buy another one. So what does she do when the car was totaled in an accident? She buys a 2nd gen Tempo, “because they have to be better...”

That’s when I stopped offering car advice and started…

I’ve briefly toyed with Sync 3 and I like it a whole lot more than Sync 1 / 2. I absolutely hated UConnect in my last rental.

Have you tried VW’s RNS-315?

Not that much. When we were transiting back to the US from one of our deployments, the small boys headed south to avoid a hurricane, the Enterprise (Big E) took are more direct route, skirting much closer to storm than we did. From what I heard they did finally turn to a bit more southerly route, after they started…

He actually received a medal for making coffee, but that’s a whole different story....

Not true. (Navy Vet. Tico class Cruiser)

We pulled into (anchored off shore of) Salinas, Ecuador for a port visit. It was a crappy port visit anyway, it was the off season there and most business were closed. The Pacific wasn’t living up to it’s name, we were taking 10 - 15 degree rolls the entire time. Since we…

Hmm. Bumper stickers? Dealer sticker? License plate frame? Dirty?

If you compare the Charger’s headlights to my headlights (2012 VW Passat), I can see what so many people get out of my way at night.

I just tell my keys to sit and stay on the <random furniture>, while pointing at them. When I come back, there they are.

There are. But, it’s of the “*” sort.... As in, there aren’t people inside the earth*.

Yes, because a TV documentary is the way to learn the ins and outs of the law....
