That happened to me on an approach to LAX 10, 12 years ago now.  We very very low - low enough to discern the palm trees and baseball diamonds (my go-to when determining how close we are to touch down in LA).  And made an exceptionally sudden and fast ascent.  Like you, no explanation. 

My wife and step-kids are this way. They’ll spend twice as much time poring over websites when a simple call will work. 

Seriously, she looked like the receptionist at a church!

I had a woman try to steal my ipad in an airport a few months ago. It was on one of those communal charging shelves and I was sitting maybe five feet away, facing directly at it. She just sauntered over and nonchalantly moved to unplug it. Looked like my mother. When I asked what the hell she was going she made some…

your conventional oven and broiler will easily do the trick as well. Your oven does a fine job at around 350 degrees Fahrenheit for 10 minutes; just flip your bread halfway through

I get that you aren’t a toast (or English muffin or toasted bagel) person, but this is just silly advice.

How much money (and time) are you…

From Toronto - can attest.
Then you’ve got the 2 jokers on 4-lanes who will do the speed limit side-by-side while a line queues behind them. They don’t know each other, and have no reason to synchronize and hold up traffic, but for some reason, neither of them will speed up or slow down for toe one on the left move to…

Ohio has a LOT of left lane campers. Like people who don’t think any other lane exists and goes straight there when they merge on the highway, even if they are the only driver on the road. This results in people driving all speeds in all lanes because like Drew Carey would attest, the rules are made up and the points…

I’ve got a dry erase magnetic mat that’s on the fridge. Just added “Taquitos, 6 mins @ 400"

This is REALLY good advice. I...am not as organized as I should be in the kitchen and sometimes I do in fact forget what worked best for certain dishes.

Actually I’m right here. After my stint in supermax I decided to turn my life around and become a food writer. The thing is, I’m an ancient prehistoric being with murky origins that I don’t like to talk about so there’s more to the story. Anyway, eat DQ.

INCREDIBLE FIND! I like that the DQ FAQ list also includes the question, “What is the Dairy Queen stock symbol?”

Maybe I’m out to lunch here or maybe I’m just in an argumentative mood (why not both?) but that 1st gear piece read to me like it was written from a cognitive bias that says the only people who buy used cars are poor and/or dumb.

Auto Industry Shocked To Learn People Just Want To Be Able To Buy Cars Again

Cachet:

Any of the “Outlaw/Street Drag Racing” shows. Stop glorifying stupid and illegal acts while injecting soap opera drama.

This is my viewpoint, too, and I’ve been veg since 1998.

I do have some fresh rear end shots if you need to get your checkbook twitching

Never anything wrong with changing plugs.

But there isn’t a right Ford :)
