I notice you forgot the snow and ice...

Which I find much more interesting than "monotone" weather.

The multi-champion Colts are Baltimore’s team.

Dude, that is SOOO early-1980's. Welcome to the 21st century: the world champion Colts are in Indy and the loser Ravens are in Baltimore.

LOL

No hard feelings here. It’s not Indy’s fault; it’s bum Irsay’s. But you have to admit something:

-Look at all your listings there of local facts. Almost all of them CAR-related.

-The COLTS were NAMED for OUR tradition - HORSES in HORSE-RACING. IN has no such tradition.

-Baltimore should get its name back and you should call your team the “Cars” or something.

I’m one of those “no-off-road” SUV drivers - I have a compact-plus-size SUV and now feel very uncomfortable driving around in a road-level car. Here in the Bay Area, when it rains in the winter, you’re down low in the road spray. Don’t like it.

Yes, I like the extra space, but especially like a little more heft to the car, and being up a little higher for visibility and a little better look forward. Also better road clearance. Mileage isn’t bad at 19 mpg, but I don’t drive inefficiently, either (wind it up, wind it down, repeat).

And yes, I’ma very careful driver. Dad lets me drive on the driveway.

K-Mart sucks. Wapner’s on at 4 ((grin))

ROFL! That's the Chicago way!

Maybe he just thought they’d mind their own damn business. I’d like to see him put up a huge flagpole, too. And not put the UN flag on it.

I see this all the time - neighbors think they have an actual vote in your private property rights. As long as it doesn’t create a nuisance or break any laws, they should mind their own business.

Thanks, I was teasing, your profile pics are cool tho. I go to the Renfests to people watch and gaze covetously at the hardware, more of a gun nut tho. Still, I’d like to be the first on my block to pin a burglar to a wall with a boar spear!
