Didn't the USPS also buy RHD Subaru Wagons in more recent years? They might have been produced at the Indiana factory, but the JDM car is RHD, which means that the tooling and design work is already done.

That sounds totally believable, but it is ironic that Proxmire engineered that deal, given how much he would grandstand about government spending.

That reminds me a lot of the comment Flannery O'Connor made about TKaM:

Hey everybody knows that boys love to masticate more than girls.

There are some pertinent threads on this message board (with a few nsfw-ish pix):

One of the linked stories said that one of the sisters goes (or went to) ASU.

In "Godfather II", I think Michael Corleone (Al Pacino) gets his son a miniature Testarossa about that same scale.

The church pastor was Martin Luther King Sr. (Martin Luther King's father, Alberta King's husband). He was not shot. A church deacon, Mr. Edward Boykin, was also killed.

...and they also were required to have luggage capacity and spare tires.

It's linked in the story above, but his editorial posted Baptist News after Obama's election is 2008 is actually pretty good. Too bad he wasn't genuinely committed to the ideals he espoused in this piece:

Particularly in light of last weekend's events, here's an example of GOOD flirting (Tom Brady) vs BAD flirting (Fred Armisen):

...or like being the tallest building in Topeka, Kansas.

She's reported to have said that after TKaM was published, she had no-where to go but down. Whether or not a second novel existed this entire time, she was afraid of that any subsequent work would suffer in comparison.

"There were two men and about twenty women ..."

Beat me to it! The W.H.M. below "THINK!" is supposed to stand for "What the Hell's the Matter?"

Al White in the XB-70 was the only survivor, but the ejection capsule didn't work as intended, so he was badly injured.

The photo at the top of the article reminded me of this incident too. I remember hearing that the only reason the XB-70 and the other planes were lined up for that 1966 formation shot was for a PR photo for GE jet engines. All the planes were GE-powered. It was just an unnecessary cold-war era corporate

The article in that link needs to be updated to include Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes.

Those original Chrysler LH cars are over 20 years old now. Probably most died natural deaths.

Cliched corporate-speak infects even the coolest of corporations, it appears.
