It would seem to my lexicon that "speculative" and "official" are mutually exclusive . . . :crackup:

I never got that kind of use from mine, but it was spectacular for the hard core analysis for law school (seriously, the folks who do the best there are engineers, hard science, and math majors). nd the rigor of the math paid off on the economics ph.d.

they felt like it, but I kept it to 35 on surface streets, as it was the first time. they stayed nice & tight. [I've used them before, but not with the gate down] {and 30 years ago, new straps on a uhaul dolly let my Crown Victoria slip back and chews up a tire} :crackup: 49ers, a few...

My wife doesn't have any trouble driving hers, either. She just sticks her husband behind the wheel and relaxes in the passenger seat . . . :facepalm: I had a girlfriend in high school whose father tried to teach her to drive a manual in his truck (so probably a 70s model, or even a 60s)...

Memory is the second thing to go . . . :teehee:

Oh, I love vegan barbecue! They taste so much better than garden variety vegetarians! :devil: [and now you know what "belligerent carnivore" means! :crackup: ]

I set up one of my big wheeled garbage bins, and let the maverick creep forward at the 1-2 mph for no foot on the gas. It hit it. Sure there were. My father, for example, used his ribs on the steering wheel and chin on the windshield. :eek: Not from the pointy thing, but from the phone...

Uhm . . . I'd had it for a couple of weeks before it occurred to me it should have one. So whatdoegs owning a '72 Eldorado Convertible with an 8 track (you push it through the dial, which flips up) make me? 😲 SHHH!! Ir will probably be a bill1 🤯

Someone needs to use one of those ai contraptions to put a 2025 in a fish tank,sith a sales meter spinning wildly! :rolleyes: If you need 13 attorneys to get 12 opinions, you just ain't trying . . . And it doesn't take nearly as many attorneys as economistss--President Truman famously wished...

Could someone please explain this "snow" and "plow" thing to me? 🤔 hawk, a Las Vegan who had doors open much of the day today

My father told me that I had to understand negotiation in marriage. His example was that he'd talked about a 48" television (huge at the time), and she was happy when he came home with a 36" (big at the time). "Dad,. you're bush league! I talked about a Harley, and she was happy I came home...

To be clear, we didn't buy the maverick to haul or tow. Rather, my wife had always wanted a little truck. While folks keep telling me we didn't need one, 1) My wife wants a little truck, and 2) I can afford a little truck. So we bought one. Forty years ago, she wanted a ranger, but her...

Mine was happy when I came home with a sports car! [OK, she might have been happier with a sedan, but I'd been talking about a Harley :crackup: ] And she responds to my coming home with a classic by wanting to go to dinner somewhere with a valet to get out of it! :crackup:

to a first order approximation, 15% ethanol would give about 4.5% less MPG than pure gasoline, and 1.5% less than with 10% ethanol. [ethanol has roughly 2/3 the energy per volume as gasoline; the rest is math] Nope. Techron is what Chevron adds to base gas to turn it to Top...

"Please go inside and wait. I've summoned psychiatric help, as no sane person would live in these temperatures." :teehee:

actually, I figure that some kudos are due for a design that could have a substitution made.

cloud, fog. same difference. :crackup: but, yeah, looking down at them while driving always feels funny.

While you guys are all trying to keep things cold, since my move I'm looking for something similar to keep food hot! I seem to be at least 2.5 miles from anything to bring home, so I'm looking for something to keep a couple of to go trays at, perhaps, 175 for 15 minutes. Not really important...

In fairness, he's had a lot of days to fix r repair them. :teehee:

You fool! :eek: You broke the flux capacitor off, and now you'll never get back to your own time! "Do not look back into laser with remaining eye." I have a fantasy about filing a class action suit against the ambulance chasers, err, product liability lawyers, to hold them responsible for...
