Having working in dealership service, the Carmax extended warranty (which is run by CNA National Warranty Corpration) was pretty much the only one worth a damn.

I am fairly certain that we are entering a new Malaise era. There are -some- thoughtful, tasteful cars, but there are also a zillion cars with arbitrary, weird-yet-conformist designs. Kind of like how every 70s American car had that idiotic 3-point front end.

If it was someone’s pet, such as a cat or a small terrier of some sort, they would have fired an RPG at it, because they’re cops.

But surely he could have hoisted the fallen beast into the back of his lifted Super Duty or Duramax, right?

The race to colon cancer? Possibly!

Are you actually from Wyoming? I actually drove through there once (twice, if you count the return trip).

Big stretch of empty I-80 they’ve got up there. And cows, too. Lots of cows.

My current username is intentionally sarcastic.

The NL West appears to be the NFC East of baseball this year.

Finally, someone in Texas is doing something that a real cowboy might do, rather than just dressing like it.
