Or to quote Jacobellis v. Ohio : “I know it when I see it”.

You are not wrong - A late Puerto Rican family friend converted to Islam back in the late 1980s, in NYC. He was particularly involved in the arts and music scene, and founded an organization that was the first Latino Islamic center in the US. After 9/11, he was the subject of all type of bullshit surveillance and…

Yeah - based on the input system, it really gives “leg day” a whole new meaning.

Yeah, I get the optics of technical language and how laypeople may misinterpret, but I am not going to start renaming car brake and clutch parts either : Master cylinder / slave cylinder

Yup, same. My younger self  was into sporty FWD imports and RWD American cars. If you would have told me that I would be owning a fleet of slow diesel European vehicles and a Nissan electric car...

I think the answer to your question is the setup for the venue that they were frequenting. I imagine a club for gentle men is a place where cash is handy. Though there may be alternate payment forms accepted as well.

The only time I got an extra bill was when I have looked down at the tray (in one of those older machines where you lift up the door) and there was one sitting there from the previous customer. I doubt the dreamed-about “machine error” often happens.

You have never said your wife’s name...because you keep yelling out your sister’s?

Very different situation, but my sister has dated three different men with the same (boring and common) name. In terms of timing, #3 was immediately after #2. When referencing them in the past I have resorted to calling them by their last names, to make it easier. She is now happily married to someone with a fairly…

Looks outside window: sees motley assortment of 1980s French and German cars, and neighboring driveways with modified Subarus, various older Jeeps, and the guy who is really into early Toyota Landcruisers.

At least when I was in Germany, they were indeed interested in the fact that we have so few regulations, and it is so much easier to keep old cars registered and on the road (at least in the Pacific Northwest). I was actually fairly surprised how few cool older European cars I saw when I was over there...sure, lots of…

Wait a sec - risotto is really hard to get right. I would totally appreciate any tips that John Podesta has on the matter, so matter how they were obtained. I imagine the Italian side of his family has some secrets...on sauces.

Yes! And also make sure you use markers/sharpies that won’t wear off. I once made the mistake of using some pen I had laying around, and the ink wound up smearing off the tape.

I sea what you did there.

Based on his/her doubling down on the whole “inattentive drivers deserve to die” statement further down this thread, I am thinking they are all of the above.

I thank you for your valuable service in answering the world’s burning questions, and derailing the typical softball fluff that other reporters are likely asking these leaders of the Cars universe..

I am now very concerned by the lack of separation between church and state evident in the Cars universe, based on the interview.

Damn - that was a nice one. Truly sorry for your loss.

He probably got his Ridgewood up while thinking of some Ho-Ho-Kus. And he sure was lucky that nobody Paramus him while he was parked.

So many questions...
