Eh, I’ve opened (unlocked) car doors to turn off lights, this is about as far as I would go in making an exception to the No Touching rule. This was much more of a common occurrence when a) I lived in a smaller town and b) before key-less entry. I consider that a neighborly thing to do.

Why no take the Dubai flight out of Seattle?

I always enjoyed the Brake Failure Light MG included on the MGB.

Another one in the PNW:

Family car when we first landed back on US soil was a 84ish Renault 18i estate. That specific care should have been the all the reason needed for Renault to leave the US market.

You honestly baffle me (or you’re a liar):

If they had not fought for their package, and accepted the first one offered, they would be out even more over the life of the contract. What say you to that*?

Same town that guy walked to from Indiana to rendezvous with minor (was actually a police officer) he met on the internet.

How insightful!

I work with databases for a living, in a sales adjacent role. Most of what I do yields exactly nothing tangible.

I need to do the horn too, thanks for the reminder of that cheap fix!

...it’ll be one more step in the plan of F1’s now-American owners to bring more races to the States.

You’re not wrong. This year I put a new carb on the 302 in my ‘74 econoline, replaced the master cylinder, wheel cylinders, shoes, oil, coolant, plugs, wires, filters, belts, reae shocks, welded up holes in the floor, and tended to some wiring gremlins.

AEA was/is a professional organization and NOT a union (Alabama state law prevents public employees from being represented by a union). It cannot engage in collective bargaining, and cannot call for strikes.

Summer after my freshman year of college. All I did was stay up late smoking pot with my friends (all also home from college-the last time we were all home at the same time). I had a job valeting cars, daytime mostly, they afforded me the ability to sleep the first 2 hours on the job, while working on my tan. My boss…

That was 15-20 years ago that I remember that teacher complaining.

Close, but I’d pair Piss Soaked Sheets Yellow with BDG over cream.

Tenure is only granted in 16 states for K-12 public school teachers, with 3 of those looking to abolish it.  I only bring this up as “official” tenure is/has not been the norm for most public school teachers.
