I am reminded of a story about a family member of one of my wife’s coworkers. One day, he decided he was going to rob a local bank branch. So he walks in to a Dallas-area Wells Fargo, Whataburger bag in hand, and approached a teller.

I wish people would stop talking about chips. It makes me hungry.

I feel like there’s a story in how a guy with a conviction for felony grand theft auto becomes a general manager at a car dealership.

My older daughter (now 14) is interested in driving something ‘cute’ so she’d be far more interested in some weird Japanese kei car than a Lamborghini even if she were handed the keys to both.

Conversely, owning a Pontiac and an Oldsmobile in the 1980s cemented my loyalty to anyone but General Motors.

Prison or mental health facility, either way you’re not sleeping on the sidewalk.

And trying to gain entry into the cockpit to try to fly a 787 could solve the problem of how to pay for a nursing home.

I rode in the car with my Dad a couple of summers ago on a visit, and it was terrifying. So the kids got together and were in the process of deciding how to broach the topic of taking his car away when he got into an accident and totaled his Caddy. Thankfully, no one was hurt very badly, but it just proved to us how…

My grandmother kept calling us to say there was something wrong with her car. She’d just be driving along, she’d say, and the car would hop up on the curb.

My Dad used to freak out my neighbor when he’d see him driving around at night by pulling up behind him in his Ford Ranger and flipping on the (aftermarket) grille lights and roll bar lights, though I think our neighbor was more afraid of it being aliens than the police.

My wife has indicated that she likes it, and she hates everything.

I was going to mention that I watched this one Saturday afternoon on local television man years ago, but it turns out that I watched ‘Two Minute Warning’ with Charlton Heston.

I’m concerned that the investigator has too quickly jumped to the conclusion that this wasn’t gang related.

It’s interesting to me that with all the companies abandoning the sedan market, Toyota still sells more Camrys than even the best selling SUVs for many other companies. And the Corolla isn’t too far behind.

Give me five bees for a quarter, you’d say.

I’s going to be a very tough case for the Court of Criminal Appeals when it makes it that far. On the one hand, the CCA almost always backs prosecutors, sometimes beyond the point of absurdity. But they also love defending police officers and making it more difficult for minorities to get justice. This case may well…

All I know is that when I went to see the first Escape Room, I assumed it would be a horror movie all about being trapped in a room that constantly plays that Pina Colada song over and over again until everyone goes insane.

Roughly $313,700 for 20 cars over 34 years. That includes two hand-me-downs that I marked as “free” and one that I have to put as zero because I have no memory of how much it cost. I only included cars that I primarily drove and not my wife’s cars.
