Breaking News: Man sells assets that he owns.  More at 10.

I miss the KC news stations.  I live up in St Joe and we have our own stations now and they absolutely suck.  I didn’t get any Breezy Rider news here.

Fly first class so your bags are tagged priority.  At least with American, I don’t fly any other airlines so I don’t know what they do.  And most airport baggage handlers actually unload the priority bags first so you get it right away.

When you’re playing GTA and have 5 stars but accidently hit the cheat code to reset it to zero.

Recently bought my daughter a 2022 Hyundai Accent Limited for her college graduation and because her previous car blew a head gasket.  Anyway, bought it from Beardmore Hyundai outside Omaha.  Honestly the best new car buying experience I’ve ever had.  When asked by the sales manager after the deal was done how I

The Hyundai Accent is absolutely a boring car. But in the Limited trim it’s actually a decent car for a young adult just starting out. I just bought a new one for my daughter for her college graduation. I wasn’t expecting much at that price point but was actually surprised when I sat in it.  Cheap plastics everywhere

Yet another reason to pretty much always finance through a local credit union.

Now do one on every US police agency that has a Mustang or Corvette, etc.  All waste’s of taxpayer money.

A Hyundai dealer in KC waned $10k over sticker for an Accent SE they had on the lot.  I told them they were idiots and that’s why they actually have one sitting on the lot.  Every other dealer I talked to was selling at sticker with no mark up and had everything in transport already sold.

At least in KC we keep our gunfire in the poor neighborhoods.  For the most part.  Kinda.  Maybe.  Shit it’s worse here, you’re right.

Your story reminded me of mine.  Unfortunately, I think the tactic probably works most of the time so that’s why they do it.  In my case, we ended up going to a GMC dealer and buying an Acadia and absolutely love it.

Two horror stories.

The Georgia Snake is a real 1992 Mustang Cobra Convertible promotional vehicle and not just some botched together LX with GT body pieces and Cobra badges and wheels.

Waterloo?  Of all the places in Iowa you pick Waterloo?  Fine I guess, just don’t get shot while you’re there.

Another reason I love living in the middle of nowhere Midwest.  The lines are usually only a couple minutes long here.

Love my Tacoma!  Can’t wait for the next model.  I need an update.

Another Protip:  When you see a Tesla going downhill, ram them in the ass and keep your brodozer on their bumper to help them regen more energy through braking.

It’s even worse here in Missouri. Year after year the rate of deaths due to not wearing a seatbelt are greater than 65% of all traffic fatalities. In NW Missouri it’s particularly bad. There have been less than 10 days so far this year without a seatbeltless fatality.  I comment on every newspaper Facebook post about

Oh I bet it’s not as much wider an audience than you think.

OK lets assume it’s onlt 25k drivers.  That’s still only $576 per driver.  Still cheaper than having them be actual employees.  Like I said, I don’t agree with it, but it’s a smart business move.
