I went to the Deathstalker 2 live show locally a few weeks back, was a hell of a good time!

Going “WTF” every time I see it, its goofy.

This. I saw a 4 door A5 today and was like WTF?

Kill it instead of ruin it.

Around 10 years ago I spend a couple years hanging out multiple nights a week with a VW/Audi “club” on FL’s gulf coast. We’d roll out en mass to meets in Miami, Orlando or FixxFest (is that still a thing?), which was a pretty good time. Most participants were under 21 so drinking was never an issue on normal local…

Was Baseketball a satire or prophecy?

In the late 90s when I worked as a Chevy dealer porter, you had Base, RS was a ground effect trim package, Z28 was what you wanted, and the SS was what the geezers that couldn’t afford a Corvette would settle for.

This is why we can’t have nice things.

The Mandalorians used to be mysterious and cool. What sort of alien race would make such cool armors that would make a driven bounty hunter so formidable? In Tales of the Jedi we get the vibe that they were much less a race than a warrior society, and while humanoid not distinctly…

True, but its multi-faceted. Just because we draw something doesn’t make it gospel. The GC has a responsibility to build to the code, the plans examiners and building officials/inspectors also provide a check and balance. Despite the ego associated with most Architects, we don’t walk on water.

We have two approaches to enclosures of spaces below the base flood elevation - Disposable, which blows out when the wave hits (as described in the NYTimes article on the house in question) or a more sturdy construction with flow-throughs which allow the equalization of hydrostatic pressure (water flows into the…

My personal, professional opinion based on working in FL is that there should be a unified coastal code that governs every new building from South Padre to NYC, and probably further (but they’ve been dealing with Nor’Easters longer than FL has been a state and have the topography to handle storm surge better there).
The…

Real Life Architect chiming in, with 5 years of experience on Coastal Construction and the Florida Building Code.

Florida instituted much stricter building codes after Hurricane Andrew demolished Homestead and much of Miami and Dade counties. That entire area has been rebuilt to survive and has generally fared much…

Seriously is there any good news about this series? Its been such a comedy of errors... :(

Take your star. :P

My XT5 lease is 60% of what Chevy wanted for a lightly optioned previous model year LT Traverse. Just like my ATS is half what Buick wanted for the Sportwagon. Gonna ride this residual value train as long as I can. 

Meh. Nitrile gloves are plentiful in a garage.

When I worked as a lowly porter / detailer at the local Chevy dealer there were two regular customers whose cars served as glorfied ashtrays on wheels. Neither owner put the windows down to light up.

The first was a sedan of late 80s vintage. The other a blazer from the…

NP but... no one is mentioning if it needs a valve job or not...

Noooo... Perrin’s story later on would be a crime to overlook...

I didn’t get the alert on my phone. ATT. iPhone 7+ if that matters.

I turned off the Amber Alert setting after one went out in our locality at 4 am and woke me up. Checking now, I also have the Government Emergency Alert disabled on my notifications settings. I am behind on my ios updates, still on 11.1.2.

Lions Fan. I know that feel, bro...

This is sparking strange feelings in me.
For the longest time I’ve maintained that I’ll never be Old enough to own a Mercedes.
Have I become an Old?
Or has Mercedes become a brand not strictly for Olds?
