“I responded by throwing a brick at his car”

If your kid is so ill behaved that you cannot keep them from kicking something, they should not be on an airplane. Alternately, offer to switch with the person being kicked. Then you can have your kid’s feet jammed into your kidneys for the flight.

It bothers me because it feels like an extension of a general disregard for ourselves and others who have to interact with us beyond just “looking nice”. Basic decency (not in appearance, but in behavior) has completely imploded the second any form of long distance travel is involved. People screaming and threatening…

I definitely get the thinking here...

And that, ladies and gentlemen, is how American cars got so bad.

I recommend looking into ProClip. Pricy, but they are dead solid as they lock themselves into the seams of the dash. Some of them, by how the dash is designed, may cause some vent blockage by how the phone is positioned. If you look on their site it will show you exactly how it looks on your vehicle so you can preview…

I like Dulles. If your criteria for putting it on this list is the fact that it is far from downtown DC, that isn’t fair. 75% of business nowdays is conducted in Reston/Herndon, right next door. Plus most airports are way outside of the cities they serve (yeah Denver....I’m looking at you....you’re closer to Kansas…

Umm... is it me or does it not seem like there's enough room to get those cars out?

As I said yesterday:

"I felt a great disturbance in France, as if millions of voices suddenly cried out in terror, and were suddenly silenced. I fear something terrible has happened."

So in 2011 I bought a 2002 BMW 325i. Nothing fancy or outrageous...just a very solid daily driver. A few weeks later a contractor from my church had stopped by my house to evaluate my home's roof for hail damage.

I live in a town full of international bankers, so on a warm summer Sunday I can sit on my balcony and see a veritable exotic car show on the street below.
I visit Nurburgring a few times a year.
I attend as many international car shows as I can (usually at least one a year).

True internet access is something I got in about 1990. I was in 6th grade. It was text-only, obviously, and came through a public access UNIX system. That got you access to Usenet, email, Gopher, etc. Everything happened through a unix command line.

Next question?

The Corvette has officially gone to plaid.

The Utah Avalanche center uses a type of danger rose. They used to use that old one picture above by have since moved to this 3d one which is...different.

Winter? Wassat?
