That’s the MLB.com video player, but I will anyway

I didn’t start listening to Car Talk until I was in college and had a $500 car that I could barely afford to keep running, so I had to learn how to do it myself. Years later, I was a consultant and landed in Boston on the day that Tom passed. I remember listening to NPR and seeing the info boards over the Mass Pike…

For the longest time I didn’t get it until I was out of New England, and they were my weekend link to home with their accents and senses of humor. It was towards the end of their run but I still enjoyed the reruns on Saturday mornings during my usual routine. I had a Saturday NPR ritual including Car Talk.

I never really “got” Car Talk as a kid, much to the surprise of the adults in my life. I was a little car nut from Massachusetts, after all. And my dad loved it. But this story closes a lot of loops for me.

“Jesus told the guards, ‘do what you came for friend’. And that, being the signal Jesus’ commandos were waiting for, resulted in a barrage of gunfire from the nearby bushes into the Socialist Roman guards who had come to arrest him, slaughtering them wholesale, including the traitor Judas.

On the bright side; thanks to the terrible state of American health care at least 8 million of those tens of millions are going to be dead within the decade

It was fun laughing about this until it struck me that there are literally tens of millions of people for whom this is some real, no-bullshit, truth bomb cinema, then I just got sad. 

Don’t care.   My commute to work is 5 miles.

This is what Honda should be in the 21st century.

“A female friend reported Andrew Smith”

I am old enough to remember that plastic bags were going to save the environment.

No, please be stupid with gasoline.

Let’s thin the herd a bit.

Be smart like this guy (seen in line in South Florida):

I get the parent’s grief. But blaming some locker room attendant for running out to score him some drugs and not Skagg’s himself is some next level denial. His death is indeed tragic and I wish he got some help, but it was his decision to make this fatal mistake. Jamming up some underling is bullshit.

I didn’t even think about the fact that the comment section is full of pedant lawyers, so, you’re probably right.

At least he finally went full Nazi with “the Immigration Question”.

You’re scared of brown people, tomato.
