I saw this Westy today and got a kick out of the proud 2WD sticker.

This Nissan frontier truck parked next to me and I have no idea what's going on.   Is this a fad "the kids"  ;D are doing?  It couldn't naturally have melted, right?

global warming? 

Probably a fad like rusting your hood.

Every single cars' badge looks like that here, but it went from +8*C and raining to -15*C and fffreezing overnight.

30 minutes in a Mini is more therapeutic than 3 sessions at the shrink.

Does that mean it's got a welded diff?

Haha.  Good point.

I suppose we should also have to question some AWD badges and four-wheel-drive stickers too!

I spotted a Waymo self-driving car today.  Most of these are in Arizona I believe, but I spotted this one here in Texas.  The driver/observer rolled her window down and we chatted for a moment.  She said the car does everything.  And I guess that's what she supposed to say. 

I wonder how much space in that minivan is taken up by computers processing all the data which the cameras are supplying.

Amen. Thermostat change on the 85 yota pickup.  2 bolts and a hose.  One broke and it turned into replacing the intake manifold.

Jen drove down to Dallas to help kill the boredom.  Out to dinner and this is parked at the restaurant.

It's a sign!

Indeed!  The brisket enchiladas were good too!

Every month we have family game night, 2 weekends ago we hosted. Each member of my wife's family takes turns each month.  It was a wonderful evening, the weather was a tad on the brisk side, so I lit a fire in the chimney and you needed a sweatshirt too. We played cards against humanity, 3 generations at the table and hysterical laughter was had all night.

Pic 2 - We took the dogs downtown to walk them around, since we rescued the younger one we had been locked down, we want him to be very comfortable in crowds so we seek them out and get him in them as much as possible. last weekend we thought we were going to a green market, we had no idea there was a concert on the riverfront and an street art festival.

So triple win for us, we were able to really throw him into the fire and he did fantastic. Stayed in place next to us and obeyed our every commend.

Life should not be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in a pretty and well preserved body, but rather to skid in broadside in a cloud of smoke, thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and loudly proclaiming "Wow! What a Ride! -Hunter S. Thompson

I've seen about 4 billion Cobra replicas, but I had never seen a Cobra Daytona replica in the flesh until today. 

It was a lot smaller than I expected - I guess I was thinking it was going to be more Corvette sized.

What's crazy is after they were finished with the racing Daytona's they just left them in Europe, cause to them they were finished with them and worthless.  This was on one of the Shelby documentaries on Netflix.

Yeah that is very crazy. I think that was kind of normal when a race car was no longer competitive they pretty much just tore parts off them, or sold them for almost next to nothing. All kinds of race cars.

Full in on a bathroom remodel in my condo.  Didn't think to grab the before demolition photos, but it was looking pretty dated and worn.

Nice! That is one thing I would have never associated with an airport, a swimming pool. Of course I have never had access to the super cool areas of an airport.....if such things exist.
