An electric conversion would do wonders for this.  Silent, low-heat, and lowers the CG to make it a little more stable, which would be important for the inevitable power boost from an electric motor.

“Oh Lord, won’t you buy me a Mercedes Benz...”

I find that “libertarians” are selfish bigots who don’t use the shield of organized religion to justify their assholery. They just own it and call it “courage”.

I used to work in an industrial section of Seattle during the summers of my college years, and one summer my bus commute involved walking about a dozen blocks to get to the job. Midway through that walk, there was a major railroad line that frequently had a massively long freight train slowly rolling along. I learned…

She’s not going to move on to a career in finance or be a talking head. From what I’ve seen, she’s only qualified to be a spokesperson for a fashion industry firm. She’s undoubtedly the biggest clotheshorse in US Senate history.

This is how most large scale construction projects end up in this region whose leaders refuse to believe that organized crime exists.

Also, not voting in local elections is an avenue for voter-repression organizations to get you purged from the list of registered voters in your district. You gotta vote to show ‘em you’re still alive!

I think the better historical parallel is the use of gas for lighting in the late 19th century. It was such an improvement over candles that everyone started falling over themselves to use gas lighting everywhere. By 1920, gas lighting was an anachronism and seen as a now (then) dangerous part of residential…

“Over the past 40 years, I don’t recall one (fucking thing other than football games I coached).”

NL: I need a diversion

Anytime someone mentions that she speaks 5 different languages, I like to point out that she has nothing intelligent to say in any of them. Her fashion sense looks like she was raised in a communist country.

You don’t become a journalist if you finished top of your high school class in anything, especially English composition.

If you can get ahold of the quad version of Schmilsson, the drum solo on “Jump Into the Fire” is completely different than the stereo version and equally amazing.

You’re on the right track. I see the matte grey and tan car colors as an attempt by manufacturers to sell to an American public that has increasingly fetishized the military the past 2 decades. Throw on a set of bead lock wheels, and you now have a “tactical vehicle”.

All that extra lot space would seem ideal for a couple food trucks. 30 minutes waiting for your car to charge is the perfect amount of time to try out the tapas truck.

From the embedded article fragment:

Allstate would have taken the deer to court to make it pay for the damage (and lawyer fees).

Cosmetic surgery.  She’s over 40 and on TV every morning.

It would be interesting to see a Venn Diagram of Tesla investors and cryptocurrency investors. I suspect there is a bit of overlap with those two groups, with the latter having lost massive amounts of their investment in the past 6+ months. That might explain why they are trying to recoup those losses from their other…
