cool.  the best car is one that has already been made.

HamNo wasn’t available?

agreed. I couldn’t stand the road trip, except that he went out to try to find peace when meeting Squirrel’s parents.

I must disagree. I tuned in desiring to know so much about the Vietnam storyline, and we got a little of Jack apologizing for Squirrel (excellent), Jack not knowing which person on a bike to trust (okay) and far far too much of crappy folk music (crappy)

not sure how that is biologically possible but I’m down

just what is the Republican boner for Saudi Arabia? I mean, don’t they fall under their category of “brown people ... must bomb”?

pocket New Testament.

I am reminded of the movie Wargames here.  the only way to win is not to play.

ahaha Harvard

I’m over 1 million miles since 2003; it can be done.

unless it is years more than miles that wears out the tire.  I think tires are rated for about 6 years, maybe 10.  I forget the exact breakdowns (I go through tires once every 1-2 years since I drive so much) but I know that it is illegal to resell a used tire that is more than N years old, and N is somewhere in that…

all tires can handle in all weather IF you know what you’re doing. I once drove Red Mountain Pass (western Colorado, 12000 feet) in a whiteout blizzard with a car rented out of NorCal with summer tires.  it can be done.  slowly.

does anything need to take its place?

I was with you until “thinks”.

they really shat themselves when they named it the “camp fire”. it’s a stupid teletubby of a name that completely fails to take the event seriously.

soooo... explain to me again why we have college athletics?  other than to have beercan-to-forehead men yell “dur hur hur” a lot?

Melania surgically altered her face to make it look like Donald’s face.  same creepy expressions, same non-smile, same squinty eyes.

yep.  just because someone declares his candidacy for president doesn’t mean we have to follow along.

someday I will die, and if my influence level as measured by pop culture is zero, I will consider myself having lived a good life.
