  1. This guy and his clones in pretty much any teen comedy. He was the bad guy in The Karate Kid, Back to School, and Just One of the Guys to name a few.
  2. Prank valve cap covers Hell, those would go perfect with my truck balls!
  3. What was so special about the car that you had to order one? Boomer talk warning: I remember when I was a kid and the dealerships had giant books with every drivetrain/interior/styling option available and you could really order exactly the car you wanted and they’d build it for you. A bunch of one off muscle cars and ridiculously horsepowered station wagons and family sedans running around.
  4. So would this setup charge the car battery directly, or be like a home system where it would charge a bank of batteries that would in turn charge the car? Im guessing the latter if you want to charge your car at night. I’m no electrical engineer of any sort, but Google says it takes an average of 12 kw to charge a car, and it’s around 33k for a 12 kw charging system , without government incentives. It would take about 20 solar panels at 350 watts each to operate a car charger.
  5. A Hard Day’s Night. Of course the music is perfect, and it’s cool seeing the boys as young men but why did they cheap out and film in B&W? And I was 3 in 1964, so maybe you had to be a little older when it came out, but the 60’s British absurdist humor just isn’t for me. It’s certainly influenced not only the Monkees and all the copycat 60’s band movies, but all music videos since. Another takeaway for me was how easy it was for dudes to dance in 1964, just twitch around a little.
  6. Sure it’s been posted already, but I read this morning that even if they’re somehow on the surface they’ll still run out of oxygen because the sub can only be opened from the outside. Seems like a design flaw that there isn’t some sort of explosive vent hatch
  7. He told them they’re free, but go back to where you were and continue to do what you were doing… but don’t come hang around us! It appears the US had no clue what to do with around 4,000,000 suddenly free people.
  8. Shopping yesterday and my 11 year old kid sees a 3k couch she really likes for her room. I tell her no, we’re not spending 3 grand on a couch for her bedroom that would just be full of her piled up clothes within a day. She begs and says the tag advertises it’s just 300 a month for 5 years! I try explaining to her that that’s $18,000.00 but that’s just beyond her comprehension. Don’t know what they’re teaching in school nowadays but it may explain how some kids get into so much student loan debt.
  9. Driving home this afternoon going about 82 in a 75 on an almost empty highway and passed a guy doing about 70. Went about 5 miles without coming up on another vehicle before I remembered and moved back to the right lane. Pretty sure that still makes me the asshole. ( in this instance anyway)
  10. Maybe probation if you’re white, if not probably worth 1-5.
  11. Didn’t love the black and white.
  12. Bad time to have tried that convenience store burrito.
  13. Had a friend get hit while fishing and they were a 25 minute boat ride from the ramp. His ER nurse wife dumped bait buckets of hot water from the outboard on it until they could make it back.
  14. Saw George Wallace on a daytime talk show today. The fact that he’s still alive is a bet I would’ve lost. Turns out he’s only 70, one of those guys that’s seemed old forever.
  15. Took my kid to the Dr for her 11 year old shots. Hard to believe we’ve had to keep around and still use a paper shot record for her since she was an infant. You’d think that info would all be available online somewhere.
  16. I just want to know the story of why that chicken is wearing an ankle monitor.
  17. I’ve been wade fishing the coast for over 35 years. More than a few times I’ve had a nice fish on the line and had it bit in half. It’s only really scared me 3-4 times when I’ve had a shark hit my stringer or mesh basket with fish on them just 5-6 feet away and attached to me!
  18. Buckwheats. Sorry to hear this.
  19. Started watching it, but knowing that it’s based on this guy’s lies ruins it for me.
  20. I catch that at some joints if you want chips with breakfast.
  21. I wonder if Wilding had to leave the US? They talked about his visa expiring and him trying everything to stay, but I never heard the outcome.
  22. Is Memet still on the show? He was a semi regular and now nothing.
  23. Don’t forget my personal favorite, Hec Ramsey!
  24. Trying to draw attention away from that rug!
