Mercury Villager Nautica. Whyyyyyyy?

No, but I would go repossess the one I got stiffed on by a “friend.”

I used to drive a cab. I had a stroke of genius and bought air sickness bags before my first night. In a little over a year, I had 3 pukers, all women, interestingly. I had 1 use the bag I gave her, I pulled over and one opened the door and ralphed, and the third just rolled down the window and blew chunks. Thankfully…

The Iowa DOT does that too. Has for years.

One of my favorites, as well. Casino Royale is the best first movie for a Bond actor, with Dalton’s The Living Daylights being a close second. It’s too bad the subsequent Craig movies haven’t been as good. They’re not bad, just not up to CR’s level. I have high hopes for S.P.E.C.T.R.E. I hope I am not disappointed.

I’m friends with Maren. As far as I know, the lesbian bar is still open, or at least a bar with the same name and location still exists.

This is, by far, the most plausible, and may become necessary in the future. The average age of a farmer is much higher than other professions. Young people don’t see it as a viable career choice. Farming is a huge time commitment, especially during spring planting and harvesting, and that limits its appeal. As the…

Crack. Pipe. All. Day.

Reverse: The real reason the Highway Beautification Bill was signed:

I think we’re on the same wavelength now. I was hoping On Her Majesty’s Secret Service was one of your top 2, and I am not disappointed. It is my second favorite Bond film as well, right behind The Spy Who Loved Me. George Lazenby’s Bond is infinitely more relatable than Connery’s, and Diana Rigg is indeed the best…

No, we don’t. Stance is shit. Cut it out. You look dumb.

Something big, rugged, and old enough to be EMP-proof. How about an old 4x4 Diesel Suburban?

I’m glad to see my favorite of the Sean Connery Bonds up high on your list. From Russia With Love is an action thriller masquerading as a spy movie. This was before Connery lost interest in the franchise and was still giving it his best. The film is still not without its foibles, of course, one of which is the flat…

I know when I’m in the minority of Bond fans when I say that Goldfinger isn’t one of my favorites. It is when the character of James Bond starts to hit his stride, but the storyline is so haphazard and, frankly, unbelievable, that I just can’t put it in my Top 10. It has plot holes big enough through which to drive an…

When this series of articles started, I went through the Bond films and determined that The Spy Who Loved Me was my #1. Roger Moore was at his peak, the villains were formidable, and the girls were both gorgeous and fierce. The Lotus-cum-submarine is in the top echelon of Bond cars. The locations and sets are…

But Back to the Future II said the Cubs were going to win this year. I believe!

Compliance with emissions and drive-by noise regulations, for starters.

Hell, I learned the fundamentals of driving a manual from the old Hard Drivin’ arcade game. I think this is a good idea.

I was in Seattle last month, and happened to be at Seattle Center, home of the Space Needle and Science Center, among other things. The Duck Boat company was in a parking lot across the street. My friends and I were commenting how we would never ride those, as they were ancient and annoying. Sad that this is how they…
