  1. β€œA horse with no name” is the all time worst song in my book. Worse than β€œMcArthur Park” or even anything by Joni Mitchell.
  2. Yeah, my Northern Mexican-American Spanglish is all kinds of screwed up. My Venezuelan friends laugh at my use of β€œtroka,” (instead of β€œcamioneta”) etc. Spanglishisms. And dealing with rapid-fire Spaniards or Argentinians is funny.
  3. I think it’s regional. Although born in Venezuela, I was raised in a Northern Mexican-American culture. In my experience, it’s β€œeste,” β€œcomo,” β€œpues,” and the universal β€œok.” But I’ve been all over the Spanish-speaking world and there are others.

I solved in exact reverse order of difficulty. I don’t think I’ve ever done that before.
  5. Flying cars are coming, boys. You think your complaints about other drivers are bad now, wait until the average American driver gets his hands on one of these. https://www.jetsonaero.com/ First flight in the US was at some property in Westlake:
  6. I don’t want to wade into the cesspool, but is Texags blaming their NCAA loss to Houston on the refs, despite Houston fouling out 4 of their starting 5? Would be perfectly on brand.
  7. <Narrator: Despite over 8,000 posts, it never occurred to FTC that Surly was in fact his hobby.>

  9. Not a fan of houses with stairs. Lived in them in the Houston area for ~20 years. Now in a single level home in ETX and I’m loving it.
  10. You are wrong. Particularly the grapefruit flavored.
  11. Mrs. NNM has a remarkable sense of direction. She never gets lost, and can easily find her way to places that she hasn’t been to in 40+ years. I never second guess her when she says X route will be better than Y. /no sarcasm/. She really is good at that. She can’t tell the difference between Utah and Utah State, but she’s really good at directions.
  12. I had at least four from every list in my cassette collection. Edit: Column 1, I had 6 Column 2, I had 7 Column 3, I had 4 Column 4, I had 6 Column 5, I had 6

  14. Same with the current Tropical Smoothie Cafe sorority girl.
  15. Tonight the fightin’ Illini are playing Duke-Quez-knee. She also is incapable of distinguishing between U of (State) and (State) State U. For example, North Carolina and NCSU, Michigan/MSU, etc.
  16. Ha. I assume you are being facetious and know the answer, but I’ll type it anyway. French President Macron and his wife. They began dating when she was 40 and he was 15.
