The only time I have ever directly confronted my boss in anger was in the men's room. He decided he wanted some trivial task done instantly and somehow figured that it would be a good idea to follow me into the men's room to angrily explain his opinion. He ranted at the closed stall for a minute or so while I…

You must run very fast. —Chiun

Popcorn.

But "DODGE" is the perfect word to put on the front end.

It's always been whatever style worked for the times. Just because you grew up with one doesn't make it better or worse: You're getting old, deal with it. Remember when they plastered "PLATINUM" and "SUPER DUTY" across the gate?

Dallas NPR Radio Host Glenn Mitchell (1950-2005) launched a weekly local call-in Q&A program called "Anything You Ever Wanted To Know", which frequently aired from the Dallas Public Library.

"November 22 is a bad day to open movies about anything in Dallas."

When we used the word 'slope' in the recent Top Gear Burma Special it was a light-hearted word play joke referencing both the build quality of the bridge and the local Asian man who was crossing it. We were not aware at the time, and it has subsequently been brought to our attention, that the word 'slope' is…

Documentation for those who wisely avoided the Ghost Rider sequel.

Less than an audible sensor? Adding a video screen practically guarantees tying it into the entertainment system, which means more accidents while the car goes forward. PLUS another hundred for new "base features". I personally like the systems, but mandating it for every buyer is neither cheaper or safer than a…
