Neutral:  Good luck with shot two. I was one of the unlucky ones with side effects; hopefully your next 24 hours goes well.

My ideal GTX would be a 1970, but I wouldn’t kick a 1969 out of my bed, either.

Good lookin’ car, tho.

Neutral: I just put decorative covers (caps?) on the bolt heads from my front plate and left the rest of the area empty. It doesn’t look bad.

Pfizer. It’s sounding about 50/50 on bad reaction vs. not.

Most commercial flour has weevil eggs in it, so freezing your flour is a good way to avoid a bug infestation.

I got the Pfizer as well. Got it Thursday, felt like death rolled-over on Friday, was fine by Sunday.

Neutral: That second dose of the vaccine is a bitch. Good luck.

Yeah, was kinda counting Lookout Pass as the beginning of the Idaho section, there. East side of that one can be a bitch even at the best of times.

Good luck on that Idaho / Washington stretch. Three mountain passes, including some of the trickier roads along the length of I-90. As a side note, I learned to drive stick on 4th of July Pass, and if you drop below 80 mph at any point, you’re a pansy.

Hey! I don’t go to Sonic for mocktail bullshit. I go to Sonic for cherry limeaids and vanilla Dr. Peppers. Then ... I take those home and add booze myself.

Thanks for the tip. I’ve been using Cocchi Americano because it was the first substitution I could find locally. I’ll have to start looking for Kina L’Aero d’Or in the future.

Alas, the ingredients have changed since the 60s, but you can make a decent approximation today. He chose Gordon’s Gin because, back then, it was 94 proof. You can find high-proof gins on the market, but whatever London-style gin you have will work. Vodka is vodka, but go for something grain-based. Finally, he asks…

My parents used to do crayons and coloring books so me and my sister would entertain ourselves and not wake them up.

So, is BMW on a long and lonesome highway, east of Omaha?

Would their “slow, sad wind down into automaker nothing” make them a Mitsubishi Zero?

I stopped exercising. BOOM! Problem solved.

Sonic:  bacon double cheeseburger, cheese tots, large vanilla Dr. Pepper.

5th Gear: Slaughterbots!
