Baby Driver. I endured this with my 15 year old daughter. Worst. Movie. EVER.

Wait. what!! so it’s a rotating door?

“A few weeks ago, I replaced the car’s radiator, which was plagued with a transmission fluid leak.”

I’ve heard so much about Blade Runner, but never saw it. And it came on TV just prior to the release of BR 2049; just the weekend I moved house and had the cable disconnected for 3 days!

It’s not puzzling at all. It’s fluid-electrolyte balance. It’s taught in high school biology. I’m sure Professor Brady knows this, even if the author does not.

Hammonds description reminded me of a racing driver who explained crashes and said he waits until all the smashing and banging ends, and then counts to 10, because you might still be flying through the air. Who was that?

I heard a public radio interview with a retired couple who started a business building floating docks. Her parting words of wisdom...”If you’re ever bored, get yourself a pair of coveralls, and you’ll never be bored again.” Words to live by.

How did the photographer get the spiral effect? I thought long exposure would get arcs or concentric ring effects, not spirals.

This drives me nuts. I live in a small, polite town, but today I was turning left across 2 lanes. The nice lady in the near oncoming lane waved me on, but I could see traffic in the far lane coming up behind her. How do you sign language that to the idiot waiting for you to go?

That is I think, a 77 or 78 F-series. My Dad had a ‘78 F-100 Explorer, and the wider side grooves disappeared with the ‘79 or ‘80 model. Dad’s truck didn’t quite have the twin turbo option, more like about 98 horsepower.

My buddy had one of these that he got for free; well, the cost of towing it out of the woods when one of the rear half shafts let go. It had the same buttery soft tan leather interior marinated in years of cigar smoke. Which, by the way, smelled really good. The original owner gave up on it, he fixed the rear axle and

What would the lap time be for an Indy car on the same track configuration as the F1 race? How much slower would the Indy car be?

“It sure beats the UPS person who knocked on my door at 9:30 p.m. the other night and made me scramble for the nearest thing that could be used as a weapon.”

“I’m here at the top of Mount Everest, waiting to interview the first person to climb the mountain. Here he comes now, the first person to climb Mount Everest. How does it feel, sir?”

I’ll be in my bunk.

Man, where do you see movies? Must be the least expensive theatre in Canada. Here in NL a movie ticket is 11-15 bucks depending on if it’s Imax, 3D or standard, and a bag of oily popcorn and a fountain drink with candy is 22 bucks.

Had a rental once while my car was in the shop. (Civic, I think) Let me warn you, I had 2 small kids at the time. In 2 days the windshield somehow cracked, Pepsi got spilled down into the plastic gear shift gate mechanism, and easter bunny chocolate got smooshed into the back seats. It was a bit embarrassing bringing

I like the idea of a diesel for it power and fuel efficiency, but I did a little comparison shopping when I bought a Ram 1500 last year. There was an online comparator based on loads and driving styles, and unless I drove more than 50,000 km per year or regularly hauled heavy loads, the price of the diesel outweighed

Just do it when you change your blinker fluid. That way you don’t forget.

I mentioned this in a comment to one of your earlier posts. Use hockey pucks for body mounts. Cheap, indestructible, and they are 1 inch thick so you can add an inch or two of body lift if you need tire clearance.
