Interesting. When I was stationed in Spain, long long ago, I don’t know if I ever saw anybody drink wine. It was almost always sherry. It could have been because I was in the middle of sherry making country or things might have changed in the decades since then.

Olive the other Reindeer is an extremely underrated Christmas cartoon. Overrated as song lyrics, though.

The ending of that episode isn’t exactly a laugh riot, though. Brilliant, but not a happy ending.

Lifetime and Netflix can do whatever they want but I want my Christmas cheese in pure, unadulterated Hallmark form. Hallmark Christmas cheese is like Stilton, stinky but wonderful.

I’ll put my money on GM Performance Parts testing a crate engine or other speed parts.

Simply awful! 

But it would have to do the same wheely time after time consistently, same height and all, for multiple takes. The hydraulics probably made the actual filming much easier. 

I live in Spokane too, which is why the username came to be. 

Coeur d’Alene is too crowded. You have to go north to Pend Oreille (fucking French with their fancy spellings) or Priest to get a little elbow room.

So he had his underwear on, but did the woman (if we believe him when he says she was an adult) have her underwear on?

There are a large percentage around these parts that will criticize anything GM does out of pure habit. Clearly GM is not blameless in this phenomenon, especially when it comes to interior design, but for many here it really doesn’t matter what’s under discussion if it’s GM it’s shit.  

No sneaky Canucks were getting by us! Well they might have, it was just a training base. A very large base that evidently includes the only Navy boot camp these days. There were three (San Diego, Great Lakes, and Orlando) when I was in.

In 1984 I was stationed in the Navy base in North Chicago. The closest mall, of course, had a Chess King where they very wisely employed young attractive women to sell to the young squids from the base. You could always tell when someone had gone Full Chess King by the parachute pants and zippered jackets.

So David you don’t happen to have a bidder account set up on Copart, do you?

Storey didn’t happen to have some ball bearings in his hand or mention strawberries did he?

A rich guy flee the country to avoid child rape charges? It would never happen!!!

The day after the larger quake I saw an interview with a guy who almost suffered the same fate but was able to slide out from underneath the car before anything fell. Scary. 

Exactly. Even places that don’t have music or TVs playing are painfully loud because of their dumb industrial design.

People who live in rural areas might have a different perspective. 

David bought an XJ? I’m not even going to pretend to have my shocked face on. Now the fact that your feet can’t feel the breeze passing underneath as you drive it is maybe a little shocking.
