Levine’s answer was “check back in 2035. We’ll let you know by then”. So apparently Ford is sticking to the last US Ranger’s model update schedule. That’s what ended up killing the (best) Ranger’s sells last time; a refusal to give it regular updates and revisions. The last Ranger was basically the same as a ten year…

Wow. I saw this article and it reminded me of an old joke...

It Let them leave the brake lines and calipers in place for when it has wheels mounted. Less labor Tob leave them.

Yeah...about this. So I use the Socratic Method a lot when I’m talking to people about different topics. Want to know how well that works out in the real world? Hardly ever. Let me tell you why. Because if you ask a question instead of giving them a definite response, they feel like they’re being put on the defensive.…

Rainey, you’ll be okay. Be strong and move on. As for taking a hint, you were very clear and I tried to be polite. Frankly, your crudeness is about the only thing I know about you personally and I find it unappealing. Please, try to find someone more aligned with your own mentality. Search the forums and see if you…

I agree that black history month is useless. Black history should be equally distributed throughout the regular calendar year. We take 30 days and do a sacrificial focus on a very rich culture. By doing that, we don’t get an immersion of the information that people should be sharing, plus I feel it causes alienation…

You don’t take rejection well, Rainey. However, while I realize that we’re but two ships passing in the night, I appreciate the original offer and understand if you feel a bit of bitterness from the rejection. Just remember, that while I might disagree with your viewpoints, and have noticed that you seem to use…

If (and I doubt they ever would, since manuals are on a decline) they ever offered an 8 or 10 speed manual, I could see them offering it similar to a big rig’s transmission, where you’d have a “Hi/Low” button or lever. This would allow a ten speed manual to only need six gates (1-5 would share the same gates as 6-10,…

I would have figured by now that Alex would have cranked out a “this is the top 10 worst vehicles in bad weather” article by now. Did it die from lack of interest?

Look, you can try to cast it as “oh, he’s just being heartless” all you want. But the truth is, there’s only so much that can be done within a set period of time. I don’t believe that anyone should be “punished” because of their government. But I also don’t believe that it’s FEMA’s responsibility to completely rebuild…

Thanks for the offer of sex, but I’ll pass. LIke I said, I don’t know what really happened. Neither does anyone else. But the article doesn’t say he chased him down. Maybe the guy did feel like he was in danger. From the way I read it, it sounded like the kid was shot at the car. And don’t let the photo influence how…

It’s a shame that people treat other people this way. And frankly, the girl is stunning, even if she was/is bald.

“These people did not choose the US Government. We took it.” That’s about like saying that I didn’t choose the US Government. I was born in the US, so I’m a US Citizen. However, the Puerto Ricans DID choose their Government that runs PR. That’s what I was talking about. And while they don’t have as much sway in the…

Killer, yes, murderer, maybe. That’s the thing. No one knows what really happened except for the kid that got shot and the guy who shot him. The kid isn’t able to say anything and what the shooter says provides enough reasonable doubt that they won’t charge him. Like I said, he’ll get sued. The family always sues. I’m…

1) You think they can just up and decide to become a state by wanting it? What if I told you they did want it? Apparently 5 times.

No, my point is that the Government these people chose have been screwing them over. And that the result is that you can only fix so much within a certain period of time. And while it may not sound nice and loving, but the truth is that the US can’t just stay until everything gets sorted out. FEMA is the Federal…

You’re joking, right? If you think the Government cares about you, you’re mistaken. All we are are statistics to them. What we have that does matter to the Government is tax revenue and (for the political parties) votes. So long as each respective political party can get the number they need to stay in power, it…

Umm...no. I never said my initial point was “let those people die”. My point is, Puerto Rico’s issues are more than the fact that FEMA is pulling out. Its like dealing with a house. Lets say you go into a neighborhood to do a neighborhood improvement project. You commit the resources to make the living conditions…

They may test low on empathy or compassion, but at least they know how to create opportunities. Just the other day, Michael Harriot posted an article about how the most successful areas for black people was in the South (although he included Maryland as a “southern” location and I’d also argue that DC isn’t the…

AskLeo: This is probably my fault, on the way the posts are laid out. I actually said previously that I don’t know if the kid was guilty or not. Nor do I know if what the shooter did was right or not. Where I’m talking about criminals, I was speaking generically, not specifically. The reason it slipped this way to the…
