I’m writing this from Florida, which is miserably too-too-hot all the overly-long day, all the way from July through September. However, this year I’m in the outside dining camp, because I like the part where I don’t die as a side-effect of having somebody else make me dinner.

Why doesn’t that son of a bitch just get a job? You know, earn his own money, like adults do, instead of making a career out of sponging off a family member?

I’ve been driving cars with manual transmissions for fifty years. It’s like emergency braking; by the time I’m consciously thinking “gotta go!” my driving reflexes have already got me in the right gear and stomping on the gas.

No, Brylcreem! A little dab’ll do ya.

I wonder why Meghan McCain does that weird Mike Pence thing to her hair.

In 1974 in the Student Center at USF in Tampa you could get a chili dog, a big pile of French fries, and a draft beer for one dollar.

Also, there were daisies on the sides of the path through the park where she was walking with her dog. Have you ever looked at daisies? Every blooming daisy has literally dozens of knife-shaped leaves arranged radially, pointing outward. It’s not for nothing that they are sometimes called “woundworts.”

Coasting in neutral is dangerous? How?

I’m all for taking as much electrical stuff out of the doors and putting it in the center console, as the center console isn’t exposed to rain when you open the door and the wiring doesn’t have to flex every time you open the door. In an NC Miata the power window switches are on the center console between the seats…

Jesus, that’s awful! Is that how they treat you in jail?!? Who knew? Holy crap!  Wow, I’m never gonna commit any crimes now!!!

I’m not going to get fancy about it. I hate SUVs. Specifically I hate the bloated rear end of SUVs when I’m stuck behind them in traffic. Nothing but ugly fat truck butt going “fart fart fart,” from horizon to horizon. I hope they all try to take a corner at high speed some time really soon.

Micheal “Mongo” Hariott is cruel to animals!

NCs don’t have that much head room with the top up. In fact, head clearance getting in and out while the top is up is a bit worse than an NA or NB. I mean, get in one and see if you fit, but it’s probably not really the car for anybody taller than about 6'-1".

Usually I don’t give a fuck about stupid people bitching, it’s just what they do, but I gotta know, what’s ungrammatical about the phrase “White People vs. Everybody..”?

If Hamilton wins the championship again after this, a lot of people will see an asterisk by this year in the record books.

If you ever pull the “don’t crash” lever while you’re still a student, they never give you your flying license, because you must be some kinda scaredy-cat, you’re not tough enough to be a real pilot.

And it rains some times.

The Zastava 750!

Sort of a motorized anti-vaxer. While I strongly agree with Arthur Schopenhauer, regarding suicide, that

I’m not talking about self-driving cars reacting to hazards, I’m wondering about when they screw up, will I see it coming in advance?
