There can be downsides.

84 Dodge Caravan, in blue. The lady Police Officer administering the test got a wolf whistle when we slowed down to a stop sign by a guy on a riding lawnmower with no shirt. Yes, she was good looking, but I was doing my driver’s test... I don’t think I said a word to her unless she asked a question. (Yes, I passed)

Salt of the Earth?

It’s not bragging, it means not enough duck fat recipes are being used... Bragging would be saying you had a bunch of duckfat, and now it is gone....

Sounds good, but my wife does not like lobster. Maybe I should make crab cakes for her, she does like those.

Thank you Torchinsky, for raising the bar yet again.

The place has some very interesting cars. First time I went there, found a Black automobile sitting upstairs from the early days of automotive history. Only saw it in books up till then. Great staff there too, they love discussing and informing on the collection. Did you check out the one that looks like a plane…

It should work as advertised, but I did not see it set up to test for tree nut allergies. This is unfortunately the problem with multiple allergies / intolerance issues, there is no current way to test for multiple issues.

You get a star for that. I think the restaurant could handle it better, but it is the policy they chose. And I don’t think complaining about it is out of line.

Why go for something so reliable?

I don’t know, seems to have worked for this guy...

The tester should work as advertised. I have the gluten tester from Nima, and it just works. Made a vacation at Disneyworld possible, and I did not get sick while there, by using the gluten tester, and not eating meals that tested positive for gluten.

I tend to be a bit practical. NASA has the rover I want.

Nope, at 42+ tons payload it can take that and a car carrier.

Counterpoint: Corvette needs a V-12. Maybe even turbocharged. 840+ horsepower, low end torque for days, with bespoke nameplate for the engine, letting you know Jim assembled it. Then park it outside AMG headquarters, and rip some donuts.

I have been telling tall tales for years to my kids. So they know to not take things at face value. I also have helped them in figuring out where to go to find answers, primary and secondary sources, and the difference between fact and opinion. Never to early for critical thinking.

Burrito everything!

It seems we are closer to the future, reminded me of Cowboy Bebob anime... not sure why, Heavy Metal had the car in space.

Nope. Not worth it.

I regularly get $500 offers to switch to Chase, as I have a credit card through them. I won’t go, I am happy with my credit union, and I don’t want to bank where I have a credit card in case there is a dispute. Chase can simply pull money from your accounts to pay bill disputes, like most banks, and I don’t like any…
