The carriers are quite nice and practical though. The main thing that sold me on buying one was the full, padded back. I was standing in line at Target one day behind a woman wearing a carrier that had crisscrossing straps I could see digging into her shoulders and back. That made up my mind that I wanted a carrier…

I wear my grey Misssion Critical carrier nearly every time I get my daughter out of the car someplace that isn’t home or daycare. Love that thing. I’ve got the insulated bottle pouch and the smaller expandable dump bag attached to the front MOLLE webbing. It’s a hell of a lot more comfortable than lugging the carseat…

This article speaks directly to every MG owner in America, myself included. I doubt you could find a single one of us who doesn’t have a dog-eared, oily fingerprint stained Haynes guide laying about.

“Bugger” is generally used as a verb, not a noun like “faggot.” And it is far, far milder, not usually suitable for business lunch but nowhere near a slur. Bugger literally means to engage in anal sex (the noun for the act is buggery), but it is more often used in a non literal, idiomatic sense. Instances of buggering…

Yay for CityMapper! I cannot recommend that app enough for navigating London. While the Tube may be managable for mere human intellect, making effective use of the buses is impossible for a tourist without the help of CityMapper. And even for those who can navigate the Tube pretty well unaided, the estimated travel…

Here’s a cheap way to score 2-for-1 admission to many tourist attractions.

Murphy’s Oil Soap, the stuff you use on stained wood furniture, is a wonderful leather upholstery cleaner and is a bit milder than saddle soap (which as others have mentioned can dry and crack leather upholstery if you aren’t careful).

If she’s in the market for a Q5 or MDX, why not look at a Subaru Forester? My wife and I test drove all three, and now we both drive Forester XTs.

I’d wager that “No One Seems to Know Why Audi Shipped Thousands of Cars with the Same VIN” precisely because Audi didn’t actually ship thousands of cars with the same VIN. Presumably, manufacturers also use VINs for all sorts of internal controls (why assign an internal use only serial number to your products when…

You just made me even more grateful that I live in the deep South and had never even seen a basement until I was 10 years old (and visiting family in West Virginia). I’m totally cool with concrete slab construction, thanks.

As the proud driver of an MGB, this is the experience I can relate to.

And how exactly was a taxi strike in any way helpful to the cause of obtaining fair and humane treatment of immigrants and refugees?

While the Baofengs can be programmed to MURS frequencies (also FRS, GMRS, and really nearly anything in VHF or UHF) and can be set to transmit within the output power restrictions, they are not type certified for use on MURS or the other licensed-by-type services. So they are technically not legal for that purpose.…
