Thanks for a brand to check out!

For those of us without a local Korean grocery store, is there any widely-available Korean marinade you recommend (or :: gulp :: an easy recipe)? My local Kroger has kimchi in the refrigerated section and one or two brands of gochujang in the Asian aisle, though I don’t believe I’ve seen any prepared bulgogi marinades.

I keep a bag of it around as well. It reminds me of takeout orange chicken. I usually keep it next to a bag of frozen broccoli florets. A tablespoon of chili oil and some smashed ginger makes a good poor-man’s General Tso’s chicken.

Doesn’t the used vehicle market also include direct sales (person-to-person, FB Marketplace, Craigslist, etc.)? I can imagine that a large chunk of sales don’t involve a dealership or their equivalent...

Amazon Renewed section: “Available products include , , , , , and .”

That “6" at the beginning of the price is a typo, right? Did your finger slip when you were working the number keys and accidentally hit two numbers?

Holland, Michigan put in a similar system back in the stone age of 1988: Snow Free Holland

Hi. Traffic engineer here. Variable speed limits may require changes to laws in different states, as well as changes to design criteria/plans/manuals. Posting a speed limit, which is a regulatory device, requires that certain standards are followed for setting the speed limit and placing the traffic control device on

What kind of fernet did you infuse with vanilla? While the Mexican fernet (e.g. baking spices) sounds delicious, “minty-and-bourbon” sounds like the boozy equivalent of “toothpaste-and-orange-juice”.

We can’t forgot about the most ubiquitous and mass produced small car available in the U.S...

Love the idea - I often do chuck roasts or briskets sous vide (140 degrees for 24 hours is my usual plan) though I haven’t used mustard before (it’s now on my list)! Your instructions include garlic though it’s not on the ingredient list. I generally say you can’t have too much garlic but what quantity are you

An article about dirty Jeep by someone other than David Tracy? WHAT HAVE YOU DONE WITH HIM?!?!?

Sure, but the fact that you’re pointing this out is a great reminder that most people don’t “rtfm”. Ovens haven’t significantly changed in decades - you turn it on, set the temperature, and cook your food. If everyone “rtfm” then we wouldn’t need posts about cleaning your oven, so pointing out what isn’t necessarily

I’ll add that if you plan ahead, making this part of your annual cleaning means you can schedule it during the summer when you can open your windows and help vent the fumes. It should also go without saying that this isn’t something you should leave to its own devices and turn on before you head out for a few hours.

Woohoo! You used my “This Day in History” idea! I’m looking forward to seeing what other interesting things you dig up...

I’ve been doing this for about a decade using an Excel spreadsheet. I know it goes against the benefits you list about a physical calendar (e.g. visibility) though I’ve found my own benefits: I can access it from just about anywhere (it’s in my Dropbox, so my phone or a computer), and the built-in functions really

How about a “This day in Automotive History” or something similar? I’m sure there are a bunch of automotive records, historical racing news, and other trivia which would make a good piece of content, and since you know the dates far in advance you can always be researching a good item?

I’m pretty sure the Venn diagram of “rabid KISS fans” and “people who get excited about Minis” looks more like a pair of binoculars: OO

Mine was a renewal. I wonder if length of time holding a passport matters? I’ve had one for about 25 years (prior to this renewal) for reference.

Having seen all the advice to renew early, I sent in my passport the last week of July (it didn’t expire until Februray, 2021, but hey - where am I going to travel in the meantime?). I tracked it through the website and the day after they acknowledged receiving it I was told I was approved. The next day I got an email
