I lived in Cookeville for a while, some time ago.  That stretch of 84 by the river was a likely place to take a date on a ‘scenic drive’ for reasons of it being somewhat isolated and with little traffic at the time.  I’m afraid I have a pretty good idea of how this happened.

This is the unspoken rule, and the reason teams were initially formed in racing. You block, impede or crash if directed to by the team strategist.

All the stars.

And they bite too.

Oh yeah!  12 Volt DC AC.  I love their song, ‘Thunderstruck’.

The only people who couldn’t use batteries, are those who camp in the hot desert, and use air conditioning a lot.  Which, to be fair, covers many recreational use cases in California.

The legislation is poorly constructed.

If the legislation actually did what is intended, and pushed natural areas to be cleaner and quieter, that would be one thing. But it’s not going to actually fix the problem. It’s purely feel-good.

Following this logic, children should be made to pay for their elementary school too.

Working for the clampdown...

Am I really dense? No but you clearly are.

OK, so here’s a question for you then. If you go camping with your F150 hybrid with the 7.2 kW built in generator, does that count too?

This is brilliant.

Ahh... the MTV years. Good memories.

So that’s how checkerboards give birth. I had no idea...

No one has white ears.  I mean, literally, white.  Pink, taupe, beige, tan, cocoa, apricot, russet, fawn... sure.  Nobody looks like the blood has been drained by vampires, and then the cartilage bleached in sodium hypochlorite.

Thank goodness.  My ankles will be safe.

Thanks. I was feeling queasy seeing the Emperor wandering around all naked.

Am I the only one here who sees the obvious fact, that capitalism can’t be relied upon to fix the environmental problem that capitalism created?

I was watching a biographic about General Sherman the other day, where they went into great detail about how he spoke with many leaders in the South right before Fort Sumter, because he was then a professor and superintendent at what eventually would become LSU in Louisiana.
