Any medical practice that pays their bills via elective procedures is currently facing a large cut in revenue. As someone who is running the office, I think Chris will be fine, and the money has already been budgeted for the car. But I’d take these recommendations (I do like the Mazda CX-30 and the Corolla hatch) and…

I seem to remember a ‘gaydar’ keychain or app that would do the same thing. Buzz if your path intersected with another person with the device. -shrugs- I could be mistaken.

Hospitals in NYC are edging close to capacity. NYS might not be as big as Texas, but the state is a 9 hour drive end-to-end if you want to consider shuttling critically ill patients around to hospitals to capacity. There are 62 acute care hospitals in NYC. 214 is the state number. Bellevue is a famous hospital in NYC,…

The dude still lives. I absolutely loved his press statements of ludicrosity! I used to make fake pressers with his image for an online game I played.

What the eff are you going on about? GM and Ventec decided to work on production and releases a statement with firmer production estimates. After the fact, Trump enacts the DPA and then trashes GM for not moving on production? Everyone agreed it was a good idea, then Trump pretends to take credit and mucks it up…

What is Fancy Kristen’s take on this? Does her second yacht need a bailout?

Time for me to fit some time in my schedule for new plugs, wires, serpentine belt, PCV... Unfortunately I am a skill-less twit and too chicken to swap out stuts, especially with rusted bolts.
I’d have planned to see the car, inspect it, and buy it. Taking well thought out precautions to maintain the safety of the…

I have had this exact problem with my old car. I’d definitely check the evap and vent tubes. A new(er) car shouldn’t be cranky at the pump like that.

This article can’t be complete without a Fancy Kristen take on such nonsense. Fancy Kristen would probably love to have one of these opulent motor-palaces, but she never buys used.

Unless you’re the Amazon Prime guy, good luck finding my house. There’s nothing in my car except reusable water bottles and blankets. And the local deer gangs will fuck you up and push you into the road if they see someone lurking around. Those critters are vicious. I’m certain raccoon road kill happens because the…

Some parts of Red Mars made me sigh sadly that the author clumsily tried to inject some sauciness into his writing, but the parts about the multinationals basically telling the UN and G7/G8 type nations to eff off was very prescient. Ignoring corporations until they are too big to regulate means you have basically…

There’s a lot of those little, narrow low clearance bridges in the old parts of the Northeast. It’s nothing too special. Now, the 11'8"(+8) has all sorts of warnings, flashing lights, and bright stuff to warn the stupid away, but it keeps happening! That’s why the bridge is so special.

I learned something today. Some rowing trailers are designed with a built-in extendable rear bumper meant to get around the ‘overhanging load’ problem. You pull out the bumper about 6 ft. when transporting eights (8 person rowing shells) on the racks. Push the bumper back in if you only have fours, maneuvering around…

My nephews impressed me with their disdain of strollers when they were young. It was either walk or nothing for them, as soon as they could walk well enough, they refused to sit still.

True. The window and door frame in place to give the driver a bit more protection from the elements. That’s all. 

It probably keeps the structural rigidity at the bare minimum level that the unibody frame won’t twist itself apart. The side impact cross-beam and door structure give the wee beastie a bit more strength. They probably bent the roof down aft of one of the cross braces. Also, it provides the driver a little more…

If you ever need some Voodoo Doughnuts, go to the one across the river on Davis and Sandy. Not worth waiting in the downtown line with the homeless bums and the tourists. And there’s no more charm of learning what XXX anime movie was playing next door. I mean the donuts are good, but nowadays there’s better ones out…

You need to strap that Jeep to a pallet and push it out the back of a C-130. Without a parachute. Leave a glorious crater in the Moab desert.

I agree. I work in a kitchen, and we use salt on the low end of quantity. I feel the diner should taste the meal, then add salt to taste, as too much salt can’t be taken back. I like when the other flavors are bright and there, and not overwhelmed with salt or MSG.
