I....I....I like the taillights.

I’ve been using this lately but it’s appropriate here.

When I was a wee lad growing up in Atlanta, I saw a young man with a golden blonde mullet, and Oakley Razorblades jumping into a Dodge Dakota convertible, in the Disco Kroger parking lot.

It was simply the most amazing thing I have ever seen. If Jeep builds this truck, I’m growing a mullet - because I already have…

So you’re saying that the valet should be able to Ferris Beuller your car?

HARUMPH GRUMPF THIS IS WHY I DON’T VALET LOOK AT ME I’M SUCH A RESPONSIBLE PERSON UNLIKE THIS GENTLEMAN HARUMPH I GUESS YOU SHOULD BE GLAD YOU HAD VALET MODE AM I RIGHT BUDDY?!?!

You have the highly educated moderate progressives in the urban centres and the religious conservatives propped up by the rural vote.

Normal people regardless of nationality, are surprisingly normal.

I think Bush wanted to invade Iraq regardless...

I still remember the videos after 9/11 of tens of thousands of Iranians flooding the streets to perform a candlelight vigil in honor of the dead. The Iranian people, who seem surprisingly progressive and educated, are not well represented by their leaders. Reopening Iran to the west can only have a positive effect…

I’ve said it before, I’ll say it again. Iran is not a threat to the US, except vis a vis Israel. Iran is more “western” in outlook (secular, industrialized/tech-y) than our busom buddies Saudi Arabia (religious, free-lunch oil potentate economy), for starters.
