    ...it’s dark, and we’re wearing sunglasses. Hit it.

    I’ve always wondered about the impact this will have on the US power grid. Most of the nation is already running at full capacity. What happens when we add a few million cars?

    Speaking as someone whose home was eaten by a hurricane, this is exactly what I want to happen after I make the last mortgage payment. Paid off house, and a full remodel for the price of my insurance deductible. Hurricane Ike raised the value of my home by 15%.

    I took the MSF about two years ago. It was a great weekend, there were zero spills, and only one person out of the 10 or 12 that were there failed. He was quite elderly, and was not physically able to handle a motorcycle, but he never actually fell. His main issue was an inability to maintain speed.

    Yes. We had a car and a minivan destroyed in a flood last spring, and we didn’t need another minivan. Car shopping can be really fun with an insurance check in your bank account....

Over the course of 6 saturdays, I drove several iterations of all the usual suspects - Accord, Mazda6, Lexus IS and ES, Maxima, new Civic, Passat, VW CC, C-Class, and Genesis.

    Apparently, “enthusiasts” have been asking for a rental car off the “executive aisle” with an engine swap. Who knew?

    Sitting in the Phoenix airport as I type this. I fly about 100k miles a year. I tend to stand pretty quickly, but that’s because I’m really sick of sitting, not to run to the front. I’ve noticed that many of the people who tend to run to the front are either vacationers who would appear to be very infrequent air

    Sorry, 8.2 was the time for the 2016.

    Big families are like heroin. If you haven’t tried it, you don’t understand, and once you try it, you’re hooked.

The teenagers make things infinitely easier, and our oldest three are girls, so they’re much more grounded. Trust me, you’re life is going to start

    So, I have a little experience with kids and the financing thereof. According to the US Census, there are only 1100 households in America with as many children as I have, which is 9.
