Our sales people were recently (and unhappily) transitioned from Traverses to Equinoxes for their company cars. The price explains why.

It’s almost like you live in my neighborhood:

My teaching spouse’s city school is the haven kids have away from the shit life in the neighborhood. Most of them are very protective of the school as a result. and only one part-time cop and no metal detectors used on a regular basis. If a gun gets in, that shit gets reported by the kids ASAP.

Exactly this. Our family will go there, in the dead of winter, just to get out of the house when it’s -9 degrees like it is right now. Hit the Lego store, ride a few rides, take a spin on the go kart track, and get a lot of walking in. It beats killing each other at home with weather-enforced togetherness.

Chris Thile is much better and reinvented the show. The music is plentiful and outstanding, and the comedy has actually become funny. It took a season (and the GK shitshow) for them to find their footing, but it has become excellent.

You’ve just given that car a name.

You’ve just described my wife’s family now that her dad passed away. We’ve got a 37 Chevy 2 door in the garage that he made into a street rod. Her sister doesn’t want anything to do with it, her mom wants to keep it but does not drive it, and my wife doesn’t want to sell it. We can only drive it 6 months of the year

As a former B5 Passat wagon owner, I hear you. I loved that wagon, but I spent significant money on that monster. Little did I realize, the guy that t-boned me did me a favor.

I laughed when my wife came home from some New Wave 80's band concert touring a year ago and described the audience as a AARP convention.

My wife doesn’t like them, so she loaned me out to her friend to see First Aid Kit in St. Paul this month.

My spouse started watching this, and I got sucked in right away. Excellent show and great suggestion.

It’s the headlights based on this IIHS release from last year:

Using the US Post Office deliver anything is the worst possible choice. My parents sent us a priority package via the USPS and insured, and it was “delivered” into the ether. Tracking showed it was delivered, we went through the insurance process, and the package showed up 2 months later after everything was settled.

No kidding. When I heard about Keilleor yesterday, my first thought was, “I am not surprised.” For some reason, he has given off a creepy vibe, and that has intensified the past few years.

“It was an electrical nightmare....”

My younger sister did pigs for the fair. She and Dad would walk them around the hobby farm for exercise, and at a certain spot they would tear off around the barn, running for the oak trees and the fallen acorns. He’d run one way, she’d run the other to head them off, and the pigs would make a game of it.

I looked through a Backyard Poultry magazine my dad had laying around, and laughed myself sick at the cost of things in it. Scrap and recycled wood and chicken wire is much cheaper. I can’t think of something (other that an incubator) that he bought or traded to put in his chicken coop.

Exactly. And, more importantly for my MIL, the PHARMACY delivers.

Target cleared these out just before the new models at about $52.
