How else was it going to get back from the 99 cent quicklube?

“Some designs are so stupid, so utterly lacking in any commonsense, you wonder how on earth it got built in the first place.”

Is that the one where he cheated by poisoning himself with strychnine because they thought it would be a performance enhancer, he falls ill, gets on a truck, starts to perk up (after the truck was most of the way back) gets out and runs the last bit to win?

The story goes that the school was founded during the Mexican-American War, and the founders (old Welsh Baptist immigrants named Nehemiah & Permillia Atwood, I shit you not), saw the term “Rio Grande” in a newspaper report about the war, and asked someone what it meant - though apparently not how it was pronounced.…

The name may have taken on unfortunate connotations but supposedly originated in an interesting bit of local history.

I only sort of care because I’m from Ohio, though I grew up with my family being die-hard Reds fans. I didn’t give much of a rip about sports as a kid, only when a game meant that my grandpa would be taking over the only TV in the house.

I bet he shows up to parties and asks about the “sportsball” as if that’s cute.

Having finally seen the footage, Hamilton made a play at a late brake, inside pass during a turn. Max was ahead as they went into the corner so Hamilton should’ve backed off. What cuz he was…

So basically it’s a prequel to Pixar’s “Cars” series?

Was anyone else convinced this was going to be an autobiographical post?

I think about the only difference is that on a motorcycle, he would have been wearing a helmet.

Worse, a lot of the water under that bridge is only a few feet deep, but the mud underneath can be 5-10' deep. You can survive the entry into the water only to get stuck waist deep in the mud, where you end up drowning.

I was once forced to take shelter from a tornado .under an overpass on the KS turnpike. Back then (before cellphone warnings), it was possible to get caught by surprise like that. I was driving a semi, lightly loaded, and the tornado was heading towards me from the side. Most of the 4-wheelers on the highway that day…

...Am I supposed to side with the minivan lady? Because I don’t. She sounds like she wants to be offensive for the exclusive intent of being offensive. Society won’t lose anything here.

Was that bruising caused by being hit by a large Dodge?
