Oh THANK YOU SOOOOO MUCH for that image, which I had thought was permanently deleted from my memory. Just ANOTHER 10 years and it will be gone....

I remember talking to someone, years ago, who was involved in developing some autonomously powered trailers (for long ‘land-trains’ hauling coal, where the tractor would drive, but the powered trailers would kind of drive-by-wire), who told me that government funding is tied to so many regulations, strings and hoops…

Can’t get an appeasement grant from Ottawa. Yet!

It’s like the Leafs or the Arrow...if it looks too close to being good and happening, we have to kill it. It’s just in our DNA and explains why Tim’s coffee and donuts now SUCK!

Absolutely. Put one on Helen Mirren.

“Never mind the racoons, here’s the Sex Pistols”.

Better than ‘Buccoons’, which really DOES sound racist!

I would point out that all of those people are long dead, except that death isn’t quite the career stopper it used to be. And it IS Disney we’re talking about...Disney probably owns their immortal souls.

There’s a Disney movie here where a group of racoons steal a soviet sub and....merriment ensues.

Yeah, I’d love this car for under $4, but the fact that Saab is toast makes me nervous about parts availability. 

It’s time to start taxing churches. I’m tired of paying to clean up the messes made by tax-exempt religious organizations. The RC church and the Anglicans are not the only ones guilty of horrendous abuse in the name of God. and yet everything from religious indoctrination to anti-vax propaganda and misinformation is…

As inevitable as it is, the news media, and a good many people as well, will claim to be ‘shocked’ and ‘appalled’ at what they find. Like the semi annual outrage at the conditions at VA hospitals. Like no one has reported on it before. Roll the tape, folks. 

Yeah, these deserve respect. With everything looking soooo generic these days, something timeless stands out. 

I have a 74 Le Sabre. The interior is IDENTICAL other than being brown. It was GM of that era. EVERYTHING looked like that, even the Firechickens and Vettes to some degree. 

It’s a little rich, but it’s also incredible rare to find one of these in good running condition (as opposed to a barn find that may have been sitting for decades) and in that good a condition.

Ooohh...loved those. What colour scheme? The blue and caramel?

He would be, but he’s a rich white male, so...qualified immunity?

Welcome to Gilead. What size cape do you take?

If this is all you’ve got to worry about honey, you’ve arrived, and you’re about one step away from a country club membership and hanging out with Muffy at the mall.

Yeah, this is a total no-brainer. $5K for a low-mile Lexus clone without the Lexus gew-gahs that are just sad. And Mazda’s rep for insane attention to detail and reliability...bring it.
