Adding to your analogy, after the surrender, soldiers from both sides looted their farmhouse of everything to get souvenirs of the occasion.

Youngkin has yet to articulate “known ties to the Chinese Communist Party” and how “the potentially damaging effects of the deal were realized”.

I live 10 miles from Moss Motors, so I’m sure they will be more than happy to drain my bank account.  NP.

“SJ 4 states that oil and gas production has been one of the Cowboy State’s “proud and valued industries” that has created “countless jobs” and revenues for Wyoming throughout its history.”

I object to the use of the word “attempt”.  There is no evidence of it with this car.

What’s the worst? Any platform that can be had at the low end of the Sloan Ladder (e.g. Chevrolet, Ford, Volkswagen) with “luxury” badges slapped on it (e.g. Cadillac, Lincoln, Audi).

This boomer has lived through the gas lines of early and late seventies, Katrina, Ukraine, and every other oil supply shock in between, and I will never understand America’s sense of entitlement toward gasoline and diesel fuel.

I have always parked way out in the empty part of the parking lot where my vehicles are left alone. However, Sam’s Club seems to attract a different kind of sociopath because when I return to the empty lot there is almost always one idiot who absolutely had to park beside me. WTF. 

While 1980 may be considered the absolute nadir of Jaguar quality, I can’t help but irrationally give it a NP.  

Abbott hedged his bets and handed out blankets.

“Handys” are so high school.  No thanks.
