In Seattle, here’s an ‘83 GTI rolling shell with brakes and the steering column for $300.

Can confirm my 2001 E46 does that. Actually experienced it for the first time last week (haven’t owned the car long and live in Seattle, so it doesn’t get towards freezing as often as the rest of the country). I had to hit the forums to see why the temperature was flashing and I got a warning beep (which gave me the…

Whataboutism: a go-to for kindergartners’ recess arguments about whose dad is better, and apparently GOP’ers for the last forty-five years or so (at least). 

“The National Baseball Hall of Fame and Museum: Let’s Remember Some Guys!” 

A handful of “he was a great pinch-hitter!” statements in support of the guy (who is, indeed, “a guy”).

So long as the desk jockey is actually writing and not staring blankly at the forms for extended periods.

I had to look this up on B-R to verify, because surely you can’t pitch in the majors for 11 years without some sort of success, and uh yep you’re right never mind.

It’s not like snapping off a curveball, as Greg Utz explained in his reply.

It’s not that simple. A throw naturally curves to the side of the thrower’s hand (that’s physics) and yes, different spin can be placed on the throw to accentuate/counter that.

There you go. That throw is definitely a shortstop’s.

We know all about father-son lineage in pro sports, but I wonder if his former-MLB pitcher dad taught him “non-traditional” ways of throwing a football with a certain type of spin?

Christ, that’s the automotive version of the F-4 Phantom “let’s crash it into concrete test.”

Instead of “whatabout,” “howabout” you take your burner account to your home turf?

I would LOVE to see him have a go at the verbal section of the SAT. Hell, give him a run at the 8th Grade CAT. He shouldn’t have any problems as a High IQ Individual™!

Got it...good point.

I worked at a law firm in Seattle that deals primarily with DUIs (which is a gross misdemeanor in Washington State, similar to the level of seriousness for street racing in Illinois). We typically charged $6000 for a case, and even offered payment plans. Even if the payment was due in full, we’re not talking HUGE…

Nancy Kerrigan is a finger on that other hand as well.

It certainly wasn’t bouncing off the numbers.
