These don’t look appetizing to me.

Going off my very old memory, since I can’t remember even being in a car with crank windows in a really long time. Usually it was the arm either snapping or the part attaching the crank to the mechanism stripping out or loosening to where it wouldn’t stay on.

I’m pretty sure most people saw it first on Disney Afternoon’s syndicated block, since Disney Channel itself was a premium cable channel until around 1996 or so, when companies finally started putting them in the basic tier.

Bravo on the new purchase, the past few years of Honda’s are finally edging out the Siennas in overall quality and styling IMHO (I own a 07 and 11 Sienna.. jury is out on my next van). I feel for you and your wife- the added expense of the conversion is no small thing.

My favourite example is Jimmy Buffett’s politics versus Jimmy Buffett’s fans’ politics.

Speed-related fatalities would certainly drop, because 95% of those people had an underlying condition anyway.

If they’d stop measuring the cars speed, there wouldn’t be as many speeding tickets.

2 points:

I sold the van set tonight, and noted to the mother that while Fred, Daphne, and Velma came with it, Scooby and Shaggy (and a ghost?) were sold in a separate pack. So if her son wanted the whole team, they needed to buy that.

I think the other part is, they can add in the same kinds of rotational experience you get from this kind of ride:

The Niro is on your list but the Mazda CX5 is too small...?

Fantastic list but Beth you wrote Hercules “Hero to Zero” instead of “I Won’t Say I’m In Love”.

How is Jonathan Coulton not the first name on this list? He’s practically the godfather of nerd-centric lyrics. 

Agreed. He put a big reward of walnuts at the end of the course, and even installed a dedicated squirrel feeder of his own design at the end, along with declaring a new-found appreciation of squirrels.

Nice to see Fillion’s still working.

If you’re new to the series and you want to gobble it all up start to finish, I’d say Stargate is much more consistent than Star Trek. Watching the original Trek run, you have to be very forgiving of a lot of its episodes in order to stomach them. (Ricardo Montalban in brownface as the “Indian” Khan comes to mind, and…

How it is ever any faster? I don’t have to drive past the spot, stop and shift into reverse to park head first.  

Only for perpendicular parking.  If the lot is angle parking; you will pull out and be going the wrong way down the aisle.

Randall Munroe kindly laid it out for us this morning:

Yep, we exist. I thought TFA was exactly what was needed to jump start the new age of Star Wars and I thought TLJ was exactly what was needed to progress it, add in new ideas, and make it more than a repetition of what came before.
