Blue county in a red state, here; I’ve never even tried it before, but at this point...

I can repair automobiles and aircraft (both fixed and rotary wing) and (this may become important) remember most of my high school French.

Ford has you covered.

The Caddy doesn’t look like an electric razor.

That’d be my guess...probably a result of his cross country road trip.

That PT Cruiser review hit a little close to home, did it?

Read the McDonald’s case. It’s used in pretty much every Business Law 101 class, and it was completely valid.

Grand Marquis/Town Car, as well, or just the Vics?

...any more than a V12 powered e38?

No.

Thank you! I thought I was the only one...it was a bit of a distraction, actually.

Goddammit.

It’s a slow-ish form of internet service, but that’s not important right now.

So, what’s a good Election Night Coverage beer?
I’m gonna be picking up a sixer after work...will need something to see me through. Note that I’ll have to be functional in the AM, so nothing with “Imperial” or “Double” in the name, sadly...
