DC/NJ so places with lots of people. 

On a related note, I kinda wish that all NPR locals used one of a few channels so it would be easier to find the local station when you’re away from home.

I dunno.  Stuck on NPR during a fund raising weekend is my version of Hell.

The Ford Taurus. It hit the scene as a huge hit for Ford, and help to redefine the mid-sized family car. Aerodynamic styling, great size, and looked way different than most cars out there in 1986.

Maybe the Buick Century. It started as this and ended as a sad, bland, anonymous budget version of the Regal.

Lot of EVERYONE on the 95 corridor are just asshats.

If I could still shift with my left leg, I would have had a ‘Busa years ago. I have short legs and it fit me perfectly, beautifully balenced, low COG. I’ve had FJ’s, Triumphs, all kinds, but the ‘Busa is still the most beautiful modern bike out there. I had a 650 Burgman and alwasys thought of it as half a ‘Busa (not…

What’s sad is that Concorde isn’t with us any more because of the Continental Airlines maintenance fuck-up. It was nothing to do with Concorde itself. I had the chance to do a round trip on Concorde while it was still flying. It was uncomfortable and cramped inside. The seats were tiny, the windows were useless, the…

If you’re looking at impish fun from a small Honda these days, turn your sights toward a Fit instead. It’s much more like the Civics of old than the current Civic is. 

You can never be in before them. They’re the fastest.

RS has a stiff ride and is a bit smaller. Veloster N doesn’t have a name yet and the purple and red paint scheme is a tad too outrageous for average Joe middle class 35 years old to own. CTR has both the name cache and the ride and the trunk to be a good seller. Also the look of sportiness is better sorta. Same with…

I do admit I’ve told this story more than once, but I don’t think it would hurt to tell it one more time.
