People said, “Why would I pay $1+ per light bulb for an LED light when I can buy an incandescent one for 25 cents?” I replaced all my lights about 5 years ago, and haven’t had to replace one. So I’m using less energy, which saves me money, and I didn’t have to replace my bulbs every year, so saving 25 cents per bulb

According to Gas Buddy, lowest gas price is $2.89, with 8th, 9th and 10th highest being $2.979. $2079 was either a typo or a lie.

Yeah. I mean, is there a market above the casual 1-2 flights a year traveler and those that fly a lot more and need a real travel planner?  I doubt it.

Taco John’s only had trademark for “Taco Tuesday” for 49 states. New Jersey’s trademark is held by Gregory’s Restaurant & Bar.

The year I met my now wife, 2000, we took a road trip to Washington D.C. We stopped at a Roy Rogers along the way (I mean, how could I not?) and they had Birch Beer. I’d never heard of it, but after one sip, I was hooked. Living in Indiana, I don’t get to drink it much, though. I used to pick up a 4 pack at Jungle

But... I’m already doing that! I didn’t marry a European woman for her looks, I married her for her great advice! (Okay, looks may have been involved, but only a little... maybe more).

Especially for rice dishes, our family likes Ketjap Manis. It is a sweet soy sauce that we use in Nasi Goreng mostly. ABC is our favorite brand, but we have had others, we aren’t picky.

Researching this, I found more:

In another thread here in the comments, Barq’s in Freestyle machines have no caffeine due to Diet Barq’s having no caffeine, and them using the same flavoring for both, just adding a different sweetener.

After a little more research, Barq’s in Utah also has no caffeine... damn Mormans!

Regular Barq’s does have caffeine. It’s just in Freestyle machines it does not (see what I said above).

The reason for this is simple. Diet Barq’s is caffeine-free. Since they both use the same flavoring, but differ on the sweetener added, both are caffeine-free in the Freestyle machine.

I just want to bring to your attention that a government app gets a 4.9 in the Apple App Store with almost 49k ratings. Since I’m traveling in July, I’m downloading and using it on that alone.

Most will have forgotten The KLF, a 90s dance group, by now not realizing they had two top 10 hits in “3am Eternal” (also top 5) and “Justified and Ancient (Stand By The JAMS)“. But it’s the second top 10 with none other than Tammy Wynette that was truly a weird pairing indeed. Tammy said:

I wouldn’t call a car with, “some bolt on performance and a stick shift”, special either. But this, if you read the article, is a little more than that. It was special when it was made, and if this low mileage example was well kept, it’s special now. Would I pay $30k? No, but I’m not in any financial position to. But

Exactly. While we don’t want injury inducing friction, we do want some. Even when I’m flying solo, if I put too much lube in my hand, I’ll usually towel some of it off.

It almost looks like the Wagon Queen Ferrari Truckster.

Last year, I had to travel not only I65, but the Tri-State as well, to get from Indianapolis to O’Hare. I had a 2007 Civic, and while I could never get into a groove, the construction was the worst part. The Civic’s suspension had seen better days, and whenever I hit a big nasty bump in the road, the rear end would

Gives new meaning to the term, “transmission hump”.
