Imagine if you worked at a place you really liked, was stable, and was doing something that was self gratifying.

I agreed to sit through roughly three hours of something I know very little about in exchange for ice cream. This should tell you everything about how I’ve chosen to structure my life.

I’m no train guy (rail head?).... but this is damned magnificent to behold.

Of course Toyota has fallen to number 1. They screwed up and made the 86 with Subaru. They screwed up and made the Supra with BMW. Now, they have been “shamed” by Mazda. They must be tired of winning.
