I do talk to people in person. My patients. My own family. My sister, a lifelong democrat until Obama was elected (who knew she was a racist?). I unfortunately “have” to speak to her at family functions. She is someone who has never fired a weapon in her life, and now owns 2 handguns, and an AR15. She thinks she…

Sounds like a blast. I still miss my 2002 Montero. I hit 155000 miles before the valve cover gaskets started leaking. I replaced those myself. At about 165000 miles the head gasket shot craps.  That was pushing my skill level, so I had it replaced and handed it down to my son.  He wrecked it 6 months later.

This right here is what the relatively sane portion of the population is up against. These idiots would rather burn it to the ground, than change their world view. They would rather destroy America than ever admit they were wrong (or learn anything new). Fuck it all to own the libs. And they don’t care. There is no…

Junior year, Varsity football. I was waaayyyy undersized, but fast enough to play. 3rd down and goal from the five yard line, coming across the middle from the flanker position. Of course the quarterback threw the ball high, and as I leapt to get the catch, I was high/lowed by 2 linebackers.

An Equinox???

This is a great option. Now, if only she could get a Buick sales guy to actually try to sell her one. That would be a miracle.

No...”drawing a line in the dirt” - that is a instant, automatic ejection from me. Two times last season in upper level high school ball. Easy write up in the ejection report, no questions asked from the coaches, administrators, or the association. The fact that a 17 or 18 year old kid thinks they can get away with it…

Right there with you. When it came time for me to buy a new car, I suggested the Flex, (I like things a little different). My wife was adamantly against it, as in hell to the no. Test drove one, brought it home and took her for a quick little drive, and she was hooked. It is far and away the most comfortable car I…

Family, for the most part. Cost of living, also. I’m in healthcare, so I could realistically work anywhere, so it wasn’t a job.  Didn’t plan on staying but when I got here, it just felt like home.  

I know, right. Iowa is clean, Iowa organized, so it has to be boring. No stabbings or puddles of urine in the skywalks, makes Iowa an outlier. Iowa has the same stupid buffet type restaurants that serve bland, crappy food just like every other state has, and ours just happens to be called Pizza Ranch...so let’s make…

“I brought the head to my dining room...”   The most David Tracy of ALL David Tracy comments.  Awesome!

I like it...A LOT! My first car out of college was a 96 Cutlass Supreme 2 door, in that beautiful teal green. I bought it with 49000 on the clock and traded it in years later with 174000. No major repairs during my ownership. My biggest pet peeve with these cars was replacing brake pads every 15000-20000 miles.  

Have you ever been to a major (meaning big, not literally a MAJOR) golf tournament? I guarantee you this guy was with Kuchar for a week. Every practice round, pro-am earlier in the week, trip to the driving range, on top of the usual tour of the course, with inside tips on how to play certain holes. He’s definitely…

Not really terrifying, but definitely nerve racking. My grandparents lived in the country, on an 800 acre farm. Now their farm was a little odd, as they purchased property around, or near them when it went up for sale. As such, not all of the property was connected, or even in the same county. When I was a kid,…

I actually looked at these this summer. Really impressed with the vehicle, and wanted to buy. Unfortunately the Buick dealership didn’t want to sell them at the time. Gave me the runaround, kept pushing me towards the crossovers. Turned me off so much, I went and got an ‘18 Flex that the Ford dealership basically…

King has also recently, (in the last couple of days), lost endorsements from Land O Lakes and Intel. People and companies that had supported him, both vocally and monetarily, in the past are dropping him like flies.

I have had just one vehicle that I will “probably” never get rid of. I have a 2008 Hummer H3 Alpha, and I have loved that vehicle since the day I bought it, in 2010 on a great deal since gas prices pushed $4 a gallon at that time. It is my second car, so the miles are low (104,000), I can do most of the maintenance…

Exactly! Anyone who has never umpired a baseball game, especially at first base, (with anything of importance on the line) should really just STFU. I umpire HS and College (lower level) baseball, and it’s not as easy as it looks on TV. Plays are bang-bang. The length of time it took replay to overturn those first…

I just so happen to be in WDSM Iowa right now. From the looks of the neighborhood, it could be right down the street. My wife would love it if I drove this home!

Is there a version of the new Explorer that won’t try to poison the driver with exhaust fumes??  That would be nice.
