I remember hearing about post offices having the old machines shut down and be forced to go and sort the mail by hand again. The main OP branch here had one of the old machines JUST get fixed and up and running back to full capacity, only to have the orders come through and demand a shut down.  Letters went from…

Yep, Tennessee has many mountain roads in the east, hilly roads in the middle, many winding along rivers, and then flatter country/farmland roads in the west. All with great views and usually pretty well taken care off.

I’d argue that it is this way in the TV series because that is how it is/was in the video game series.

When the first Halo game dropped (2001), EVs weren’t really on the radar at the time, and the Warthog was (still is) super cool. There was no way they were going to put an electric Warthog in the show due to the…

Tennessee has some good ones, once you get away from the interstate and the big name roads like the tail of the dragon and the natchez trace parkway - both have too much traffic to really enjoy them. The country roads in most of Tennessee and the mountain roads in east Tennessee are all beautiful drives with a decent…

Mississippi, but only if you are into rally driving. It has lots of dirt roads pretending to be highways, very few cops, and a culture of drive like no one is watching.

Then when you consider the fact that the Integra is a…

It is technically a hatchback. 

A 2003 RSX-S had an MSRP of around $24k, which equates to $37k or so in today’s money. The pricing is pretty equivalent.

The long-foretold Bowling Green Massacre! 

It’s a valid concern, if you ignore that manufacturers have continued to improve engine performance in the face of emissions regulations for decades.

I wish Justice Stewart’s famous quote was presented in its full context more often, because it’s great:

Feels like Jalopnik is a bunch of kids sitting around in ‘95 arguing whether or not Greenday is “punk”.

“Supercar” is qualitative, and it thus best described by appropriating the late Justice Potter Stewart’s definition of pornography.

He has excellent split-second decision-making skills. His other decision making skills (continuing to drive a known defective truck back to HQ) need some work.

“So, how does one pay for this support, while in jail”

No different than if he has no money to pay for a civil judgment.   The big difference is that it takes the burden of financing a civil suit off the victims.
