I love your stuff Tav, mostly because I believe you are genuine in finding diamonds in the rough.

Agreed on the skill...those knots are terribly executed.

Nice write up, but I’m surprised you didn’t give at least a cursory overview of what knots go best with what collars. Granted, it would have made a long-ish article longer, but it's equally important to pulling off a successful look.

Also, might be a good time to keep an eye on Volkswagen inventories and factory incentives. This debacle is going to drag their entire product line down sales-wise. I don't think I've ever seen significant rebates on GTIs. Might be time to keep an eye out, because if there was ever a time that was going to happen,…

Perhaps not now, but soon...soon will be a good time to buy low on VAG.

It was trying to be.

There's a viable business opportunity for any street cart satay or kebob vendors.

Not only was Sue being kept from natural vertical promotions, her company wouldn't even let her transfer to a different department. It became clear that her WNBA past would hamper her more than she initially realized.

Thanks Matt.

This is the kind of great Kinja that makes me feel like politicians are to a person pompous assholes trying to screw over anyone in their path to get theirs.

I’ve never pissed my pants beyond some bed wetting episodes in early grade school, so I don’t have one that happened to me.

True, though if you're a road warrior who lives in a new corporate lease every two years, I'd be more than a little concerned.

Also the pic seems to not be posting, so to prevent the comment from possibly being taken at face value, this is a joke about the actual color of a barbeque grill, not race.

I cannot friggen stand black barbeques. It all comes down to color for me, and I don’t find the color appealing at all.

Red Cedar and soil. They are all over the PNW. When I first moved out here, my nose wasn’t used to the scent of red cedar mulch (which is everywhere). It’s intoxicating.

They actually are finding evidence for "new car smell" to be pretty hazardous to one's health, what with all the synthetic chemical off gassing of various man-made materials.

Eagles fan...okay it makes sense now.

Sorry your team lost.
