Using that very same math, I am proud to claim that I have a 16" penis.

Well, Ford, for one.

“I hope they give the butt a bit of a lift, for a perkier, tighter back end. The Continental suffered from a droopy butt that detracted from the design.”

Yeah, it's insane my car will beep incessantly because something heavy is on the passenger seat but the seatbelt isn't buckled, yet Tesla will apparently not disable the car if the driver’s seat is unmanned. 

Funny you should ask: I couldn’t exclude “vegetarian bacon” or any derivative like “veggie bacon” because that’s a... thing. When people are searching for tempeh, seitan, or other meatless products, they often seat for “vegetarian + [insert meat name here]” because that’s how these products are marketed.

And yet, trains keep crashing because of human error.

“back when I was learning to program in BASIC”

As someone who programs AI systems, I do find this funny. We’re getting extremely good with image processing, and it’s actually amazing how far we have come in the past five years. (I admittedly don’t work in image processing, but I know people who do, so I’ll say they’re very smart people and just leave it at that.)

So shitboxes with broken speedometers/odometers get to drive tax-free?

You can really use any vehicle as long as you have towels to protect the interior.

Not too many, about 6, not for a lack of space, but because I happen to need 6. I also did a thing in the same car recently you can’t do in a Santa Cruz. Sleep comfortably inside it.

America is not really ready for this kind of action.

I can’t wait to get back to business travel, nor can most of my colleagues. Granted, I’m not one of those people who was 100% on the road, so it’s a perk for me. Most of my clients are looking forward to in-person meetings as well, despite the expense.

COTD!

Don’t knock US rail to much, we by far do more business on the rail system than most think - almost all rail. We are not passenger focused. However as a Char-lanta-ham (Charlotte to Birmingham) I85 corridor person, I would agree - rail between DC, Richmond, Raleigh, Greensboro, Charlotte, Atlanta, etc would be great).

Neutral: Slideshows....

Rotaries. Damn things mess me up every time.

reliable, but conservative, almost entirely mild, with maybe a few forays into medium and one spicy you can’t get in the U.S.

Fine. But how is Toyota’s salsa supply? 

So damn nice, I would buy mine twice!
