1970's Rolls Royce Silver Shadow. I honestly don’t remember the precise model year, but the online images all look extremely similar. It belonged to a former NBA player who was having a local Toyota dealership sell it through consignment for him. I had to take it off lot for pictures to put online for the sale.…

I’ve got a couple. one is mine, one happened to a friend.

‘91 Accord (stock), driving home from Anaheim to Las Vegas after a family reunion. Open road between Stateline and Sloan with no one in sight ahead of me, a few cars (including my brother in his) at least a mile back. Going 91 in the left lane (because if I’m going to speed, why not go the year of my car? College…

Johnson/Mourning = Game, set, match

I still fail to see how a city can support a home team when the vast majority of people who would go to a game also work at the same time as games because that’s where the money is. Typical Las Vegas industry weekend is Tues/Wed. So they’re basically relying on visitors and millionaire season ticket holders to keep…

My company has matching, but Voya recently sent out a letter stating that they are no longer matching on a per-paycheck basis and are instead switching to a lump sum match at the end of the year. You only receive this match if you are employed the entire calendar year (Jan 1 - Dec 31), otherwise you lose it all. So…

I’ve driven many places in my car (‘03 Subaru Impreza WRX Sportwagon) and loved basically all of them. But for “weirdest” place, there are a couple that stand out. I was driving across Kansas back in ‘08 on a cross-country road trip and stumbled across a sign that said “Wizard of Oz Museum 17mi” or something to that…

I tried making a proper Irish coffee at work, many a time. Each and every one, it was sent back with instructions for Bailey’s and whipped cream. The new drink also included (note: sarcasm) a single solitary tear from my right eye.

A gloriously sheared through clutch pedal.

I remember throwing DOWN on NBA Jam during the Blockbuster VGC’s! My at home record for steals was something like 71 in a game. Charlotte Hornets, Johnson/Mourning all the way baby!

I once ‘lost’ a 500 freestyle race in H.S. swimming because the lap counter for another swimmer skipped over a couple #’s. I had lapped the damn kid and he still finished a lap before me. I took it up with the governing authority at the time, which was my first real look at the ineptness of governing authorities.

This JABRONI has it all backwards. Locals (long time resident AND those born here) say “Las Vegas” because that’s the goddamn name. Tourists say “Vegas” because they’re too lazy and/or hopped up on booze and molly at the latest club DJ/EDC venue to know any better. It’s like everyone calling Orange County “The O.C.”…

My first introduction to anime was a bootleg of Akira on VHS with Heavy Metal tacked on after. I started my collecting with VHS of Evangelion around 5 years later while I was in college. Buying the tapes at Suncoast in the mall. Eventually Cowboy Bebop and Trigun followed along with Lain. I could only afford so much…

I’m pretty sure that the left breast inner pocket is where the FLASK goes. Not this ‘smartphone’ bullshit.

My favorite part was when Ashy Larry tells David Blaine to “Get yo frog son!”

I remember when these first came out, I HATED the design. I was also a complete idiot in terms of non-linear sensibilities at the time. About 8 years ago, I realized exactly how unique and cool a small van with a car profile was (that’s basically what this is, right?) and cozy’d up to their aesthetics (this was also…

When I had a roommate, we had a chart broken down by week for dishes, vacuuming, cleaning the backyard and bathroom. Cooking was generally done by ourselves, but since we always knew the next week we’d be cleaning up after the prior person, we tried not to let our stuff get out of hand (because of the implication).

Tail of the Dragon is no joke. I’ve done it twice in the suby and drove past a bike wreck while going into a corner (thankfully a different biker went back up road to warn everyone to slow down. There is a reason that the Tree of Shame exists.

eff that car. My dad had one when I was in H.S. which I basically learned on. It was a never-ending headache of things breaking down and not working. I had to reschedule my driver’s test because an electrical malfunction in the lights blew out the turn signal bulbs (after I spend an hour the night before perfecting…
