Has anyone done the math for where the break-even point is between “feedstock-based aviation fuel” reducing pollution, and feedstock-based agricultural runoff further ruining the Mississippi River, the Louisiana wetlands, and fish populations in the Gulf Of Mexico?

“Six Days On The Road” is still the GOAT trucker song. It has it all - bitching about scale houses and logbooks, missing your wife but not succumbing to lot lizards, a complete rundown of what he’s got under the hood, and “taking little white pills and my eyes are open wide.”

I understand giving Bradley crap for making C.W. McCall the face of trucker country in this article, when Dave Dudley, Red Sovine, and Jerry Reed exist, among others, but all the same: “Convoy” gets all the shine (and the movie version is awesome, by the way) despite being pretty corny, but “Wolf Creek Pass” is…

I lived in Portland for eleven years. I have had way more close calls in a car versus bicyclists who ride like they are in cars than I ever had riding a bicycle myself.

“his cavalcade of support for actual fascists...”

His talk with Bernie Sanders helped modify my opinion of the proper role of government, for starters.

The guy he called me a jackass and an incompetent baboon thinks I'm the angry one? Now I'm really confused.

“Issue”?

He has a broader and deeper pool of both guests and listeners than you would ever dare admit. He’s also not half the meathead you’d think his is if you’ve never listened.

How many listeners would he have as of the moment Spotify decided to arbitrarily turn him off? Zero, that’s how many.

You say this as though he does not have 200 million listeners on a platform that belongs to someone else, that could be taken away from him at any time. There would be a court fight, but there's really nothing preventing Spotify or YouTube or whoever from flipping the switch on him.

Know how I can tell you've never listened to a single episode? 

And I’ll do everything in my power to prevent another such disaster in the future. Which is nothing. Cheers.

You okay, buddy? Who pissed in your Cheerios this morning?

I’m not defending the various incompetencies and vulnerabilities that allowed this attack. But once the attack happened, I would have shut down my pipeline, too.

And if your online banking took a sudden and dramatic shit, is your checkbook balanced? Or has it been 30 years since you balanced a checkbook? Do you have all your paper receipts handy? How sure are you of which deposits and transactions have cleared by open a business this morning?

Or buy it and donate it to the Petersen or the Volo or something.

As soon as my wife and I finally buy a house, I plan to put myself in a similar automotive situation. Just need a place to park them. The nutty prepper part of my brain wants cars that work after the grid goes down.
