That is too crazy - must be seen to be believed! The cops didn't do their profession much credit, but what was the suspect thinking anyway? Many a cop will tell you that the overwhelming majority of criminals and scofflaws are, to put it politely, a few cats shy of an alley.

Nein danke! I'll just drive. That way, a. I am large and in charge, b. I don't have to put up with TSA (though I understand that airport security is necessary), c. I can carry large bottles of liquid, and d. I can make a spontaneous side trip if I so desire. Also, even if driving takes longer, it is more comfortable, and even factoring in hotel costs can be cheaper, especially if you stay at bargain motels or AirBnB.

I don't trust on-line maps too much. I use them as general guides, but my human senses have the last say. When I make a trip, I will look at two or even three different map sites, and take notes. Sometimes Google Maps suggests a ridiculous Sally-Go-Round-the-Rosebush route while my eyes note a simpler and more logical way.

The drawback: People are collecting these bags. Get the whole set! ;)

We need a major push to go metric. No more sitting around, no more infantile clinging to the obsolete British system - time to go with the herd!

Page not found. :( Who designed these, Sam Peckinpah?

Beer: The breakfast of champions!

A few of these are from 2000, which was technically the ass end of the 20th Century. Yeah - picky, picky, picky.

The best part? That is definitely NOT a "cake wreck"!

Never give up! Persistence is the only thing that pays off in the long run.

Good for her! (There is one point of grammar I would fix, bu this is not the place to play Grammar Nazi Expert.) Our education system is so flocked up, it doesn't need an overhaul - it needs to be torn down to the foundations and completely rebuilt.

What kind of [bleep]ed up society are we that can spend hundreds of billions on "defense" but can't even feed our children?

IMHO, Canada has a better claim to the North Pole than any other country. They even have the perfect postal code for it: H0H 0H0.

We definitely need a serious incentive to get Americans (OK, US residents) interested in space exploration again.
