This was a well-executed plot by the far right to prevent Harris from talking with The View folks and airing some well-thought words to America.

For really good, but heart wrenching book about a victim of a car hitting a professional cyclist during training, read “Degloved” by Adelaide Perr. This kind of aggression and deliberate attacks on cyclists is not only traumatizing both the victim and others and is seldom taken seriously by law enforcement. Victims…

I’m impressed that the soft top on the canopy is open during the dance on the highway. Aerodynamics can be good or bad, and allowing airflow THRU the bed/canopy is well thought out.

Or just sue gun distributors, dealers, and manufacturers.

When will the police be held responsible for falsifying reports? If we lied on an official document to the government we would be cited, fined, or jailed. Why can cops lie on reports and nothing happens? This is in addition to their bad behavior.

This happens to some hybrids as well. When the aftermarket replacement high voltage battery failed at 100 miles, the first thing the tow folks asked is whether it could be shifted into neutral. It depends on the failure mode and if the 12v battery still works enough to shift. If it can’t, it has to be dragged which…

My “lawn” consists of whatever grows there. The only plants that are considered “weeds” are those that have seeds that mess with the dogs, and blackberries. Not watering it very much helps. 

Private party order through Ellsworth Harrold Ford in Sacramento, coachwork by Crown. Dad bought it from the original owner a year later.

Gram had one back in the day and I still remember the license plate, for at the time it matched her name and age, WNK 071.

I have one that was built in 1964 still running strong. They were unknown at that time.

By the Reverend Billy C Wirtz no less. Or did he already do one?

Don’t just assume that a convection oven heats evenly. My supposedly high-end Wolf stove has a terrible convection oven. I don’t cook cookies in there after several attempts. The only thing I cook in there is turkey due to the large size. I have an in-wall Bosch microwave/convection oven with a 16" diameter…

Here in the very flammable California foothills, this is one of our conundrums. Mow over the pine needles and oak leaves providing a nice dry place for fires to propagate or get them out of here to prevent such fires. Aarrgh. Near the house raked down to earth-like material, elsewhere different. The lawn just gets cut…

1) Iodine stains the skin, it doesn’t just cover the skin. She’s going to look like this for several days as it fades.

Years ago someone I know used food coloring to become the Jolly Green Giant for Halloween. Yup, green for a week. Fool.

And if it is like the charger in car useless. Only enough power to barely charge the phone, and the phone will actually discharge if it is being used for anything, you know, like navigation, or music, or whatever. I have to plug it in for it to be useful while charging.

For the three of you out there that don’t know, there is an Internet Cars Database that is awesome. It identifies just about every car in whatever movie has been databased, if that isn’t a real word, well it is now.

Traded our ‘84 300 ZX for a brand new ‘86 Subaru wagon straight up no money changed hands deal when we found out we were having twins.

I’m in California and had purchased a ‘92 F350 and a couple years later it needed to be smogged. In CA in order to sell a vehicle, the seller is required to obtain a smog cert prior to selling. It had one when I bought it, so the expectation was that all was well a couple of years later as I had changed nothing in the…

Well at that late date (1970) they were at least required to include safety equipment like highback seats, safer dash switches, and shoulder belts, none of which were required on my apparently unsafe (by their logic) ‘64 F100 crewcab.

And of course the science is starting to show that having had Covid is NOT enough “natural immunity” to ward it off again. Idiot.
