Think this was intentional?

That looks a lot like the mouth of the Platte River in Sleeping Bear Dunes National Lakeshore.  I think the Empire Bluffs are in the background.

Don’t worry, Michigan’s had plenty of rain while you’ve been gone. Their rust is well “hibited”.

Wow, I 100% thought your sub-headline was a typo.  I can’t believe they’d not let them work.  Hopefully they’re not “relieved” without pay.

Great read!

Chevy SS - Right when I started to be interested in cars as more than a utility, they came out.  When I got to the point I might be able to afford one, they stopped production, and now prices are through the roof, even without pandemic shenanigans. 

My new trick doesn’t work for veggie oil, but does work for oils that solidify. Take a can opener and remove the top of a soda can, then pour the oil into it and let it cool. Then just throw it away.

I was confused by pedantic note-2 at first too, but I think she meant that Norris won the battle for third place at that point in the race. I had to read it a couple times.

My guess is that Carmax wouldn’t hand over the cash without a title or vehicle in hand, but I’m not an expert.

As far as I know, DRS isn’t going away.  I wonder how they’re going to address it because that tail doesn’t look like it has a flap that can be opened.

I’ve lived in Michigan my entire life and never once heard a single person call it a door wall. I live south of Detroit. Is it a northern Michigan thing?

Ford didn’t exactly set this powertrain up for success. It was a $10,000 option after the required trim upgrades (initially). It feels like this was just an “also ran” so that they could say they had the most engine options available. Maybe so they could say to management that it didn’t sell well.

That’s it.  Thanks!

That’s the one.

I can’t think of which SUV has it, but there’s a newer off-roader that pumps the brakes of whatever tire is on the inside of the turn for sharper off-road corners. This seems like a similar concept. It’s driving me nuts and I can’t seem to come up with the right Google Search term to find it.

The Twin Snakes are so good.  Perfect combo of sweet and sour.  They struck gold with that one.

I tend to think of time passing in the way that the author seems to, in retrospect. Regarding the “Time flies when you’re having fun” idiom: I think that it’s true that the moment feels fleeting, but the memory isn’t. When I reflect on the past week/month/year, I tend to think of the variation and quantity of things I…

I read (but never fact-checked) that there are actually no Five and Dimes in Canada. If true, Bryan Adams is a liar.

It’s crazy how massive current F1 cars look compared to that. I’m newer to following the sport and to be perfectly honest, the car he drives in the video looks like a go-cart to me.

This is a great list. As much as I hate slideshows, I love that this didn’t contain a bunch of sponsored links.  I gotta get one of those bean drainers and a soap pad.
