I'm just outside of Philadelphia, USA and in my little town and in the neighboring one literally across the river, there are small, unattended fruit and vegetable stands left out for hours (EDIT picture doesn't want to post??):

I'd rather have the stock Fiero than drive around in this fake, no matter how good it looks on the outside.

I use the free Pandora (rarely, at home) but when I am driving, it's my purchased music on my iPhone hooked up via the AUX input in the MINI. For some reason, there is bluetooth connection to make calls with the phone but not to transmit any other audio, like music, so that's out. I can also play music from a tiny…

Add the oldest steel-hulled warship afloat in the world, the ex-USS Olympia, to your list if you haven't already. Olympia, a protected cruiser, was built at Union Iron Works in San Francisco, CA and commissioned in 1895. The ship is a unique design, the only ship of her class.

I can't imagine buying a game these days without doing basic research for reviews and the like. Hell, I check reviews for just about everything I buy online.

Eh, it's neat and all I s'pose, but I prefer the subtlety of Singham:

That's as close as I have gotten but if you poke around online you may find interior photos...

The old power house, long disused.

It's not abandoned. There is a military Veterans center at the site now, as well as a recycling facility. Also, each year a "haunted house" is put on, somewhat to the consternation of people who think it's in poor taste, given the school's history.

Great story, well done.

If you can keep that up for 3 days straight, I salute you sir!

10? 4 or 5 for me is a lot, always had been. Much more than that and I start to lose interest.

Flag him.

Except some of us alumni care fuckall for his "legacy" and see this as a disgrace.

I had a similar Delco unit in my 1987 Grand Am except it had no AUX port and I used one of those tape adaptors to play my Discman through the stereo. I had the Discman velcroed to the top of the dash, and stored its remote (!) i the center console.

My 2013 MINI came with an external antenna that looks like the antenna on an R/C car. Replaced it with a stubby antenna.

No one toasts the bread for a hoagie around these parts (Philadelphia area).

I often use the heated seats and not the cabin heater. Radiant heat is just that much more comfortable than forced air.

I injured my back years ago and the seat warmers were the one must-have option on my car. I use the Warner even when it's nice out.
