Now that’s what I’m talking about!

I’ve been very happy with the Chromecast. The one thing to watch out for is that it does not have a separate audio out which can be an issue with surround sound systems, but that depends on your TV. If the TV does passthrough audio to an optical out, run that to your surround system and you’re golden. Some TV’s

I had a fairly consistent issue with audio sync on my old PS3 (fat) on either Netflix or Amazon video (or maybe both, I can’t remember for sure). It was *just* enough to be annoying. When that PS3 died, my bother gave me his old super slim. That one streams just fine with no audio sync issues. So I kinda wonder if

Pro tip: You’re supposed to blow into wind instruments, not inhale through them.

Strapping a GoPro to the top of a HW car is going to seriously limit what you can do with the track. Anything more than a very gentle curve and the car is going to tip because of the higher center of gravity. My kids have a number of different HW tracks and even the taller cars often have issues.

When I bought my Roadie, there was another on CL in the area that I really wanted. I think it was a ‘96. Black with woodgrain delete, Impala SS front clip, some sensible modifications to the suspension, relatively low mileage. It looked extremely badass in the ad, but while I think the price was fair, it was more than

You said it, so I don’t have to.

I live in MN (Twin Cities) and there are various places where signs advocate using a zipper merge. It never happens.

Harp transport. The owner of this van plays the harp and prefers to transport the harp in a vertical orientation. A section of the roof has been removed, allowing the top of the harp to poke up into the modified section.

Mine is in front of the house, right where I parked it.

Yay, another Dinotopia fan!

There’s a lot to dislike in Thomas Kinkade’s work. For me, what’s particularly galling is that he was a technically skilled artist who “sold out” and kept painting the same darn thing in the same darn way to make lots and lots of money. I can’t find it now, but at one point I came across a fascinating comparison

A competent and knowledgeable helper is invaluable.

I dunno if it’s the biggest cover for a pickup, but it’s pretty large without going into full camper mode. You could easily fit a pope in there.

Title is accurate. I did not expect Channing Tatum to be a mermaid. I expected him to be a male merperson (merman, triton, merdude, whatever). Is he just going to be in drag or is there a transgender angle? Either way, kudos to whoever went for the double gender switcheroo. That’s the kind of bold thinking outside the

Friggin’ Thomas Kinkade, man.

Hey, a win’s a win!

Is blue the best color for a car? Yes it is. Is Admiral Blue the best blue? Probably (there’s a case to be made that Midnight Blue is also an excellent blue).

Great story! A road trip in an Elky sounds like way more fun than trailering the beast home.
