Those look like tiny convection ovens for hot dogs.

After all, there is a reason we have the word defenestration.

Sometimes simple solutions are best. I would throw the whole family over with him and every senator that joined in on his little insurrection. 

Thumbs up for the tarpeian rock reference.

I agree with most of your post here, but with respect, I wouldn’t call it a small community. There are almost 100,000 Persian-Americans in greater Los Angeles, of all creeds, and many quite prominent and successful.

Nah, Johnny Cash’s “One Piece at a Time” is better. It has America’s aspirational nature, our hard work, our determination to screw the rules, and, crucially, our complete and utter inability to think about the actual consequences of our actions.

Big Wheels always make for great stories, you just have to read it from the perspective of a 4 year old. I remember taking off like Evel Knievel speeding down the driveway and hitting that 1" lip between the pads. Amazing.
