Great swing, but you missed the ball. 2012 is a long time ago in manufacturing. Nissan is the largest North American producer of cars, and its Smyrna, TN, plant produces the most vehicles, c. 650,000/yr. https://dailykanban.com/2015/02/makes-cars-north-america-largest-auto-factory-u-s-dont-embarrassed-get-right/

I’ve made it to The Purple Pig but once. Great meal, and I did have the roasted broccoli. Had no idea this was the secret to the dish. This will be a weekend project for me.

Man ‘Splainin’ University strikes again - “Listen, little lady, we’ve got important topics to discuss here. No one on this Board of Trustees wants to hear more of these made-up tales of woe. Why, in my day, if I patted a girl on the butt, she glowed with pleasure for the rest of the day! Those girls knew their…

Just because they said they didn’t want one doesn’t mean Tesla took them off the backorder list. I’m sure they’ll want one later.

I think you’re spot on. At best, Tesla has enjoyed a performance/design edge over a Chevy Volt or Bolt pure EV. But with BMW, Porsche, and yes, Ford, GM, et. al. all producing EVs in ‘19 or ‘20, who but a fanboi would buy a Tesla?

You should be pun-ished. Take your star.

I was at Horseshoe Bend a couple years back. To get the iconic shot of the full bend of the Colorado River, you have to hang ten over the edge of a 1,000' drop, and point your camera straight down.

And if you’re interested in this kind of stuff, there’s an excellent book, Deep Survival, Who Lives, Who Dies, and Why, that explores surviving in the wilderness, and why some don’t. Great read, and very useful is you do any kind of solo wilderness/desert recreation.

I own this book.. I bought it at the Grand Canyon. The leading risk factors for death in the Canyon:

A&M had 99 problems . . . but goin’ to the Elite 8 ain’t one

Supported my 17-yr. old senior daughter’s decision to walk out, told her any suspension would be appealed to the school board, and a suit filed on her behalf by the most expensive lawyer I could find.

Can I buy you a Coney?

Dribbling is for lesser beings, Kobe
