2000 Tundra, 20 mpg maybe if it was a 2WD. Can we agree at some point that there is a place for Electric Vehicles and Internal Combustion Vehicles? I have no desire to have an EV, because it would limit much of what I do. I really have no desire to see charging stations when I am out in the middle of nowhere camping. And right now my truck does pretty well at pulling a horse trailer when necessary. A friend has a Tesla that is insanely fast, but you lose so much of the driving experience without a shift knob in hand. The paddle shifters on my Outback Wilderness are a substitute, but still pales by comparison to the real thing. If I just wanted a commuter vehicle, I would strongly consider an EV. Having said that, I still say Hydrogen is the better option.

I was just going to post this. Glad I saw your post first. My father-in-law was a Brubeck fan and saw him on his Jazz Goes to College tour. Oh, and The Allman Brothers do a good job, but I have to stick with Van Morrison. -

The woman thought it said Trump. It was so funny I literally laughed out loud. Sent it to AB any she laughed as well

I only wish it were longer. -
I have a few memories that I would just as soon forget. I was the assistant prosecutor handling the abuse, neglect and dependency docket for ten years. I also prosecuted some criminal cases against children.

Most know I was a medic in a combat arms unit for many years. What got my attention was when I worked with social workers at our county children services. Dark humor that was indeed disturbing.

Divorce court? Don’t you mean how to teach your wife to dispose of a body?

I would change “they’re smart” to “they have common sense.”

To be a bit pedantic, Lee Trevino is not Mexican. He is American, being born and raised in the United States. He is of Mexican-American descent.

Thanks. I had to look up the meaning of SMOF while on my first cup of coffee. I'm not amused by that fact. It is true. Also, anyone who has been in the military can attest that "misery loves company." Brothers-in-arms to share the misery with makes it far easier to endure. Oh, and yes, sisters-in-arms too. It also applies to other shared experiences as well.

In college I took an upper level Shakespeare course in which we were broken up into groups to do projects to present to the class. My group decided to do the balcony scene from Romeo and Juliet in different variations, including as farce and with Romeo as essentially a voyeur and a bit of a... well, pervert. (Cue Juliet on the balcony sliding her hand over her posterier and Romeo saying “See how she leans her cheek upon her hand. O, that I were a glove upon that hand That I might touch that cheek!") Add comments below, but yes, I played the part of Romeo. When we were done, the class got the opportunity to critique us. One girl went on a mini-tirade that the story is about true love, and it was appalling... etc... Our professor had a hard time keeping a straight face as he shut her down and set her straight. I got an A, along with the girl that played Juliet, because we did all the heavy lifting in our group, coming up with the ideas and working it out. Our professor then asked the two of us if we would be willing to go to a local high school to present to a couple of classes. All in all, a fun time. No, it is not a love story.
