Plus the wooden dashboards catch fire.

I'm old and not particular infirm, but what infirmity I have can be traced directly to a 1952 MG TD. Only the fact that the doors were hinged on the aft edges made the whole enterprise viable at all.

State governments often reimburse schools at a higher level when a student's diagnosis is autism. School districts have been known to pressure parents to let their non-autistic children be diagnosed as autistic largely because so going brings in bigger bucks. There have been instances where the student's pediatrician…

Thanks.

I write books. Well, someone has to do it. Now let's say I put a 250-word excerpt on Facebook along with a link to the rest of the book, either on my own site or on Amazon. Does FB have a foot in the door of my property?

My Apple support person never heard of it.

Don't know what that is but will bring it up to Apple Support, which owes me a phone consult (our third). Thanks.

And the ones that mother gave you did exactly what?

I'll buy into a new iTunes only after Apple figures out why the IOS 6 upgrade deleted my music library from both iPad and iPhone and won't let me resync.

Oh, and I want a blue one. I'm red-green color blind.

Does anyone think it will run Pages? I wrote a major book proposal on my iPad3 but would like something that's just a little bit easier to whip out of the shoulder bag when I get an idea or see something that needs to be photographed without drawing a crowd. I don't need 3G or whatever "g" is in fashion at the time.…

I would like to thank IOS 6 for freeing up 3.5 gb each on my iPad and iPhone — by deleting my entire music library. IOS 6 also won't synch them back

And let's not forget "It's not the years ... It's the mileage."

But he wasn't strutting around bragging, was he? He was sort of jolly about it. He didnt have a Tardis with a swimming pool. And there were sympathic characters. I find it hard to think of one likeable person from the other nights show. Rory, maybe. Even Amy's likability factor was so-so. I also believe that the…

You know, I'm an old who came to Dr. Who via Tom Baker in the 1970s and still consider him the best Doctor. To me, Saturday night's season opener was just too ornate and filled with meanness. The Daleks are becoming less Borg than Cylon. If they continue to evolve, a Dalek Trish Helfer will seduce Rory.

There's always the sport I was good at as a kid, "yacht" (they look more like surfboards these days) racing. I raced small, high performance boats. It's a huge sport now with big tours, corporate sponsorships, big paydays, all the mod cons. Try to find a black face, then or now. Sailing, especially extreme sailing, is…

It was decades ago that Arthur Ashe warned that if tennis continued to pay bigger and bigger prizes for winning tournaments it would attract black athletes who weren't the preppy/country club type.

I tried that with my first marriage. Didn't work.

I'm waiting for Tim Burton to make "Hitler: Vampire Killer."

Wedding Crocs?
