Caught this guy creeping into Oakland.
Can we all give a huge shout out to Always Sunny in Philadelphia for being great and being the one inspiration for so many memes?
Forums are alive and well when looking for car info. Whenever I get a different car I look for communities with the most activity and that is usually a forum.
The one exception I can think of (proving the post to be true) is the first generation Tundra (2000-2007). The FB group had more current news than the forums and I managed to get banned (first time ever).
There is nowhere nice for birds to land the cat can easily reach, by design. I know cats are bad for birds but he is 12 years old and lazy.
I try to help the environment as much as possible but I'm not perfect.
I didn't cut the grass this spring and it got over two feet tall in most places. This guy went out there everyday like it was his job. Grass was cut this week but he is still out here doing his thing.
A symbolic boycott is important. They still picked a side in this mess.
OMG, I read the comments.
I'm a guy who showers daily and tries to make sure I don't smell (breath and body). Today, however, I am off from work and only washed my face. I've had that not so fresh feeling all day.
I'm going to take shower right now.
edit - shower complete. also, i was trying to quote ghostbusters in the beginning but messed up it. it should have been "I looked at the comments, Ray".
I wrote a related reply about lack of small trucks in the US last night on The Autopian.
The large pickup/SUV was not exactly chosen by the people. The 1964 Chicken Tax has limited people’s choices and remains in order to give US domestic automakers an advantage over imported competitors. Combined with CAFE rules (Corporate Average Fuel Economy) of the ’70s small trucks were effectively wiped from the US market.
Why would a US automaker produce a small truck when they could produce a larger truck with more profit?
Reality TV is cheaper to produce than scripted shows. Profit is the reason all they show is reality shows.
If the IEEE (electrical engineering society) is saying something it must be really bad. They rarely if ever get involved in things like this.
The US laws prefer large vehicles.
Look into the 25% import tax on small work trucks- https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chicken_tax
Also, larger SUVs and trucks get preferential treatment under gas mileage standards. Someone more familiar can explain better.
FYI - my daily is a 24 year old Subaru.
Black cats are the last ones to be adopted from shelters. If you want a cat, check out the black ones at your local shelter.
