I love driving, and I have a nice boring economical jetta. If I want to drive like a bat out of hell, I need to go to *Germany* and drive on the autobahn. [and yes I know it is not always unlimited speed, it does have sections with speed limits.] If your enjoyment of driving means this:

Having worked in hazmat, I happen to understand the waste stream pollution issues with the fabrication and then subsequent disposal of the batteries is. I will not go with an electric/hybrid vehicle until they can come up with an energy storage system that is a hell of a lot cleaner that what they have currently. I

If you buy bling, you can get a nice normal car instead of a penismobile. If you are not spending $90K on a penismobile, then you can spend 35K on a good reasonable car and 50k on blng [or a hell of a nice vacation to somewhere warm in January or do something even stupder like put it into a retirement account]

So if you plan on being DINKS [double income, no kids] and not hauling loads of stuff, get a damned car and stop driving a penismobile. Get bling instead.

While I agree in essence, I disagree for slightly different reasons.

Sangria, served on ice! With added fruit for the fiber and vitamin C!

Me too - I love the way it is so open, and the specialized racks in the freezer for the frozen juice concentrate. I am surprised it doesnt also have some specialized caddy for the old school Birdseye little bricks of frozen fruit and veggies. [I loved that style packaging over crappy plastic bags.]

I agree, I don't see much in there that would actually feed a family of 4 for a week - even counting on bags of frozen veggies and frozen meat all I really see is junk food - yoghurt tends to have as much sugar as ice cream, 5 pounds of cream cheese [hm, no bagels?] 5 dozen eggs. Almost looks like they are planning on

Because lead paint has a sweet taste and small children will lick it or pick off chips and eat it - lead poisoning is nasty stuff. Unless you disturb the asbestos it won't generate dust and be an inhalation danger.

I would rather know if it had asbestos, radon gas or lead based paint - or a history of plumbing/heating problems ...

And the problem with those is most of the people are morons, as are the investigators. Look, a house is an 'organic creature' - it creaks, it groans, it has air hammer or water clank in the pipes, it gets EMF generated by wiring and appliances, the foundations settle with the raise and drop of the thermometer and

A too small kitchen or lack of wheelchair access is a deal breaker for me =) Th house we currently have has a microscopic kitchen, I have to do my food prep on the dinner table. After putting a microwave, a blender and a knife block on my single scrap of counterspace, there is not enough room for a cuttingboard.

The bitch is that pretty much any random house built previous to WW1 has had someone die in it - people didn't go to the hospital for everything, and tended to die at home from old age and chronic illness [and the occasional accident]. Women had their children at home, physicians made house calls and more than one

No, the problem is employers that aren't even paying minimum wage. Tips should not be used as the main part of your income, they should be a nice surprise for great service. You income should come from your employer.

And who has facebook in their real name? If you are going to be working, you should not have an account in any social media in your own name. I am safe, I am retired so I don't care if I can be tracked down, and any crap I post about shitty service I can't get fired about.

It started because cars were an affectation for the rich, and frequently traveled with not just a chauffeur but a mechanic. It started out as a convenience for people in France, and the original guide had restaurants, hotels, garages, places for getting fuel and so forth. Then they branched out to covering other

It's a date!!! I hate getting dressed up and going out to some expensive plate - Pierces Pit BBQ in Virginia is good enough for me, no matter how rich I am I will always have a soft spot for good BBQ~~

Oh I have got to go there next time we drive across country to visit familiy!

Or given my ill health, a big case of the point and giggle *sigh*

Eh, I know someone who used to work for Bobby Flay and there is a reason he refers to him as Booby Phlegm. I bet Fieri is just as much of an asshole to work for. I have seen his show, and I won't bother watching another one, or going to his restaurant.
