Leave your Harley at home, please. Nothing worse than an unmuffled motorcycle in a place you go to enjoy the sounds of nature.

John Wayne is Class C airspace and all flight ops are under the direction of the tower. If he disregarded their instructions, that’s one thing. But if the taxiing jet or the tower crew screwed up, that’s another matter entirely.

If you like bowl skiing, it’s not for you. Snowbird is better for that.

Sweet. I’ll have to go back. And Park City does have some great restaurants.

I wonder if Park City takes into account all of the resorts there. The Canyons is ginormous.

Here’s what I find entertaining: The left in the U.S. loves socialism and not in the way that some people “love” certain types of oddball food but in the “I’m totally obsessed and will never ever be happy until it happens for realsies” kind of self-destructive love. Putin is a product of the USSR. That second S is for…

Overshoes.

Overshoes.

James Cameron spoke of having ‘eff you money’ after the success of Titanic. I find the concept quite appealing. I recently saw a TV news magazine piece about a woman who got really rich and decided to buy a farm and raise turkeys. She said, “I used to be weird until I got rich. Now I’m eccentric.” I want to be…

No point in locking it up because the locks are often on the side of the bag opposite the wheels so it gets put on the conveyor belts that way and the mechanisms eventually rip it off.

You probably get quite a bit less than ten years on tires because the clock starts ticking when they were made not when you buy them. There’s a production date code on the side walls.

I really want someone to organize my lab. Lots and lots of little drawers with labels identifying the components in each one.

This might be a Dr. Nerdlove question but a girl once asked me to look in her mouth for one of these and at the time I thought she was BS’ing me because I had never heard of this condition. To this day, I wonder if this was a strange way of getting me to kiss her.

Does this thing have per-device bandwidth limiting? I, sadly, have a ridiculously low data cap on my ISP and streaming movies on my iPad is sucking up way too much data even though you can’t really appreciate HD movies on it.

Yeah, it’s the same feeling some people get when they haven’t been to class all semester and haven’t studied for the final exam. That and the feeling some people get when they haven’t contributed a damn thing to the group project and the other people in the group are asked by the professor to grade project members’…

There’s a simple solution to this: privatize it. There’s a piece written about how comparing American airports to third-world countries is in fact insulting to privatized third-world airports.

I thought they were pining for the fjords.

Is it just me or is the above a “foreign policy” not a “defense policy”?

Many years ago, there was a piece on 20/20 where they put a bunch of guys in a sort of police line-up setting and asked a group of women which guys they found attractive and why. One of the guys was short. All the women chose the taller guys. Then they started describing various attributes about the guys e.g. what…

I highly recommend the Durango Silverton trip.

Nerd wallet seems to have a really low-ball estimate for how much money you’ll need in retirement. I monitor my parents’ expenses and it’s 3-4 times that and they don’t spend money unnecessarily. IMHO, the retirement calculators from Ameritrade and Scottrade are much more realistic.
