Exploits of an NPR producer

I drive a Subaru, I don’t even want to think about replacing spark plugs.

In short, although the journalism industry may distinguish between advanced investigative news pieces and automated or unchecked opinion pieces, most people do not, and we do not expect them to.

I like how Mazda PR throws the blame on this solely on the radio station for transmitting images without extensions and not on their internal developer for failing to sanitize his inputs.

if(!hasExtension(file)) {
  brickRadio();
}

This was my immediate answer too. I’ve owned 1G and 2G AWD DSMs and both were a hoot (when they were running). The 1G with the pop-ups was always my favorite. The crossover Eclipse is no longer the same car but it’s like a metaphor for Mitsubishi itself. That company is nothing like it’s 80s-90s self.

Back when I was a teenager the salvage yard I used to keep my car running had a mechanic they recommended so I started visiting him. He was great because he was crazy and willing to try anything.

I spent 4 months in Cleveland one Winter for work. Even I, a Texan, cleaned off the roof of my rental car every damn morning.

You’re right, that’s about the timeframe they sent Tony Stewart to anger management. They need to bring back Angry Tony!

I tried to watch it, tried to be open minded... While I agree that NASCAR needs to shake things up this just didn’t seem like the right thing. And it wasn’t the coliseum that bugged me so much as it was the season not beginning in Daytona. I’d rather they slipped this in the middle of the schedule.

Subie’s CVT really isn’t horrendous in their economy cars. My wife’s Crosstrek has it and she loves how smooth it is. I would NOT want one in a WRX or STi but in a Crosstrek or Forester that never gets driven hard it’s fine.

And spend another dollar or two to give it a manual.

Nothing a new BRZ STI wouldn’t turn around, am I right Subaru fans?

As a sailing vessel this also counts as a green vehicle, but billionaire bad so never mind.

30 knots is blindingly fast for a monohull. I’d be curious to see the wake it leaves at that speed.

Sure, hinged at the bottom makes it better for checking the brake fluid, but just think if it hinged at the top. You could put a mustache on it and put a big pink tongue inside that compartment that could be triggered to stick out at cars in front of you.

I came here to mention Buc-ee’s. That damn beaver is a marketing GENIUS. You stop for the bathroom (easily the cleanest bathroom you will ever use on a roadtrip) and maybe a coke and a snack... you end up leaving 45 mins later with 2 BBQ sammiches, a bag of bohemian garlic beef jerky, 2 cups of banana pudding, a bag…

How many miles on it?

Wait, we were supposed to replace the toilet seats?!?
