He worked in a body shop in the 80s/90s. 

Thanks, Corilof. Silly mistake for me, but I’m glad that our QC SOP caught it.

Now I’m left here wondering if it did, in fact, prevent her son from catching COVID-19. If so, we need to add that data to the science.

Linked from the 1/7/22 Morning Shift but answering anyway. I’m listening to this. Long story. You have to hear the entire thing to get it.

Two bonuses about this new truck:

My in-laws had one of these years ago, but 4wd. My father-in-law would say that the benefit of 4wd is that you can get it stuck further in the woods. If you don’t need 4wd, you’re paying a price/maintenance/fuel tax that doesn’t benefit you.

I’m going to request that someday...

I heard Morgan Freeman.

I’ve always had an unreasonable love for this ad. Especially around our nation’s birthday.

Fair, but I don’t think Teslas ever attend driver’s ed classes.

My guess is that the Tesla thought the two lights were coming straight for the car, in the same lane, and tried to go into the left lane to avoid.

Those wounds run...pretty deep.
