Bill Monroe himself said bluegrass would not have existed had he not been exposed to JAZZ. Not the blues, jazz.

They’re boxy, but they’re good.

Thoughts and prayers

That’s why I replaced the brake lines on my 1948 Willys last year—that was just such an old Jeep, it was too risky.

This Grand Wagoneer, though, isn’t nearly as old and—more importantly—it has clearly had its brake lines replaced at least once. They look new, feel solid, and the brake fluid that dribbled out of them…

I am sure the brake lines “look” good, but why not spend the extra $50-$100 and replace them all? If you are flushing the brakes anyway you are already halfway done. The problem with brake lines is they can fail from the inside out so looking at them doesn’t really tell the full story.

I cross country ski. I can teach you in 1 hour and you will find it not as hard as it looks. That means this: It’s pretty easy to do in many ways, but to be very good at it is REALLY FUCKING HARD.

HMMMMMM

Bills-Eagles Super Bowl. That parking lot would be better than the game.

Drew, thank you for this magical love letter to Western New York. Not only did the Bills somehow manage to top a list that for once wasn’t “Top 10 Sports Franchises That Never Deserved to Exist” or some variant thereof, you even managed to toss in a Garbage Plate reference and avoid showing Rex Ryan in Bills livery.

Oh man, that wagon!

He could have been cast as the Master Codebreaker that Finn and Rose are looking for and never get to talk to.

They still come with rear-facing seats.

I will wrench until my dying day.

My final breath will be: “Please....hand....me....the JB Weld.”
