Good thing America doesn’t have those problems.

Good thing you didn’t say Glendronach, I bought all I could find.

They’re doing a job (measuring credit risk) they weren’t even really designed to do, so obviously they’re doing it badly. But here’s more...

I picked up a really nice Lexus LS under market that had sat for over 3 weeks.  They’re out there, I just don’t know why.

And that’s what I appreciates abouts yous.

My 1999 Lexus LS400.

Technically, there are. When we visited cathedrals, each one had a relic, usually brought back from the crusades. I can just imagine someone digging around in Turkey. “Oh! The finger bone of St. Paul!” “Oh! Jesus’ bath towel!”

I think David Tracy is to Jeeps what the Boomer is to Corvettes. Give him ANY Jeep and he’ll…

Through some connections, I had a large amount of Euro and Pound coins.  All told, probably a few hundred in Euros and fifty Pounds, all in mostly fractional coins.  My plan was to bring them on vacation and spend them.  It went pretty well, and I unloaded most of my Euros.  When I got to the customs check between…

“If I understood correctly, COVID restrictions limited how late the dancing could go (I think we finished around midnight), but plenty of groovin’ occured on that magical night. I learned that not only can the Turks make rugs, but they can cut them, too.”

Are you sure you don’t own a Corvette and white New…

The boat is in the water, so it was a successful launch.

Started in San Diego and drove to Seattle with as much coastline as possible in a Mustang convertible.

As a Jalopnik reader, I’m disappointed because I was totally going to buy one in 10 years when the depreciation curve looked good.

Beyond the lesson, I can’t believe that the teacher was arguing that the invention of the cotton gin meant less demand on slavery.

It actually INCREASED demand for slavery, because slaveowners didn’t see a machine that reduced the amount of manual labor needed to refine cotton. They saw a time and money saving machine…

I’d rather have a Taco 10 years down the line than an Ecoboost.

Face Book?

OK boomer

That one complete twat:

“Are you trying to assault people with auditory weapons?”

It’s a fucking whistle.

I get what they’re saying- “the other driver is 100% at fault”, and having the other driver’s insurance pay out was the goal, but what they should have said UP FRONT was “We’re sorry, the accident was someone else’s fault and we’re going after their insurance, but we will take care of you as a customer regardless of…

Pedant- the M4 had a single .50 caliber gun on the top of the turret for the commander to use, ostensibly for anti-aircraft role.  The coaxial and bow machine guns were both .30 caliber Brownings.

I’m no expert on preservation, but when a historically significant building made out of wood is near a modern roadway, shouldn’t they have put up a railing or something?
