I always watch Fox News on election night. Their coverage can only be described as petty, messy, and extra.

Well, damn. He delivers on zero of his promises before he’s even elected and they still think he’s the great white hope. I need a sedative.

I’m not sure what’s worse –

I know I can sometimes be on the gullible side but I really thought he was going to capitulate and release his taxes. I just could not fathom that people would just up and let him get away with it. But they did. And here we are.

He actually proved he “was a big dick”. Maybe it’s a typo in the article?

Sure, you can come. We can talk about hockey over a bowl of poutine :)

Thanks for the input, and I appreciate your concern. As I’ve said this has never happened before or since (this was three or four years ago), and it was extremely short in duration, a second at most. I had no sense of any lack of awareness in any other area, no spacing out (or of any time loss or gap, as I expect…

We should get special rings made!

A stock Miata only weighs 2300 lbs? Holy crap, that’s amazing.

When I turned 16 and got my first car, an old Saab, we lived in Louisiana. And not the cool “hookers and beer” Louisiana. Middle of nowhere Louisiana. Being kids, my friends and I would routinely head of in a random direction and see what we could find to abate our crushing boredom. On many of these occasions, it…

I was about 12 and my mom was driving me home. It was still early evening and light fog was starting to develop on the sides of the road. As we were approaching a fairly dense patch on both sides, a boy wearing a plain white t-shirt, turns his head at us and runs across the road. He was far enough away that the…

Yeah, its more that back then I was really broke and I’m also a cheap ass. I didn’t own a cell phone until 2005.

There’s almost no full service in my area of Canadia.

Yup

I’ve told this story before, but once when I was driving along I had one of the most completely strange disconcerting experiences. I moved my right hand to the shifter but as I did so I had some kind of mental disconnect where I didn’t recognize my arm as my own. I was alone in the car and as my arm moved into my…

A while ago, my friend and I were driving out in a more rural part of the country. Windows down, breeze blowing, some of the finest MmmBopping that Hanson ever mmbopped blasting through the stereo. Until we realized there was this massive old truck that was following us; and by upping our speed, it was clear it was…

most unexpected thing to happen to me in a car? I witness at least one vehicle at night, per day, that doesn’t have headlights on

1997 GTI VR6, black.

Texas State Hwy 188 from just outside Rockport to Sinton is about 23-24mi of mostly straight and smooth two-lane highway with open farm fields on both sides, with one four-way stop along the way.

UUNNNFFFF. No windshield FTW.
