FWIW, when I recently was selling my 2003 ES300, I only got One “Real Response” from all those received, and that one wanted to buy it for $2,000 when it was listed for $3,500!

Consider a car-top carrier on top of a smaller minivan or wagon. That should give you major flexibility. Also a portable coleman stove will give you major flexibility.

Simple solution: Get your neighbors together to simply take all of the HOA Board Member’s items from their garage and place them on their front lawns. If you’re not Stealing, then you shouldn’t be concerned about the legality of this action.

BTW, had anyone mentioned that his One Super Bowl Win was from when he took over the Tampa Bay Bucaneers one season after Tony Dungy left them? (Dungy also wound up winning a Super Bowl in Indianapolis too.) Therefore, I really don’t give him that much credit.

See if you can rent a car to go out to the Valley of Fire. Go early in the day, and you can see Hoover Dam on the way back. Also try to go down to Fremont Street and check out the older Vegas.

Ironically enough, this is one car that wouldn’t benefit from having a Manual Transmission. I also saw a `50's Caddy with a 6-Speed once, which means that there are a whole lot of people out there with more $ than Sense. ( ¢ )

Granted that women can be as good as men in whatever field that they choose to pursue, that’s no reason to limit yourself to an “All-Woman” Board of Directors. Shouldn’t they simply be trying to find the best, most qualified people, putting an extra effort in finding female candidates? Sometimes the Pendulum can swing…

Got the Sable Used, drove it for 5 years, 65K miles, never any problems with it. Sometimes that’s all you need.

What I’ve been doing is using an old inactive smartphone that connects to Pandora or Spotify via my Wi-Fi. Then, I have a rechargeable Bluetooth Speaker which you can easily find for $10 and under at Staples, Dollar Stores, Micro-Center, Amazon, etc. Connect the two, and you’ll have your music available without any…

Supposedly these were even more reliable than your average Toyota. I regret not getting one instead of my `97 Sable.

The ideas are for getting out and meeting potential suitors, not for dates. As for the Horseback Riding, I believe that you’re a lady, so going skiing (with lessons, of course) would be better suited for you.

You’re absolutely right! As an active, outgoing Type A personality, I guess that I projected that on to other people. I guess that I’m lucky I found my wife 31 years ago, when being active & outgoing, I became friendly with a guy who was at her table the night before at a Singles Weekend.

Thanks for your input on this. I hadn’t considered the Mtn Biking thing. I guess that you can find some groups on Meetup.org.

FWIW, my Acura RLX has 310 HP. It has plenty of power for merging into traffic, can go quick off the line when needed, yet isn’t scary fast.

Get involved in volunteering, talk with others about how they’ve expanded their interests, become active in Alumni Organizations. Start a Dinner Club among your neighbors, where someone cooks a meal once a week/fortnight/month in rotation.

I tell people to just go out and do what you like to do. If you happen to meet someone, then you’ll have that in common. If you don’t, then you did something that you like to do.

Hypothetically, if you did buy both of these, and managed to put them back on the road again, when would you have the chance to drive them, if your other projects also came to fruition?

Let’s take a look at myself, one of many drivers on the road these days. I’ve had my license since 1974, 43 continuous years on the road. I had one 6 week driver’s ed course in the summer of `74 consisting of some lectures and a number of supervised drives by a teacher in the `74 Plymouth Fury provided by a local…

Whatever is the least stolen of these:

Unfortunately I dont know if all those pricey electronic parts will even be available, let alone on a timely basis. Therefore at this price, CP.
