    Can you link that tutorial for me, please? I probably won't do the install, [no one who knows me would agree to it, lol] but I can't stand not having one, it feels claustrophobic.

    Maybe it's the only way they can earn a living, reputable carriers won't take them [for whatever reason], and they need to work, got bills to pay. Contrary to popular wisdom, being poor/broke/unemployed is no picnic, and people will do whatever they can [or have to] to avoid it. You don't...

    OMG I shoulda slept in the van!

    Thanks for the heads up - I don't 'follow' sports events [can one call golf a sport?] and didn't know about Augusta. So when is the Masters, anyway? :oops: Never mind - just noticed the 'April', lol.

    Baltimore Rioting, Looting OK According to Mayor

    First, the "traditional" concept of marriage is a relatively recent concept. Marriage was traditionally arranged to form and strengthen ties between groups [clans, countries, dynasties], and love had zero to do with it. Women were viewed as breeding stock - how "cherished" did that make the...

    Wondering

    Stores do it already, with RFDs that 'read' your cellphone....I have a real antipathy for what advertising has become, as opposed to it's original function: to inform. The less people like it, the more intrusive [and distracting] it becomes. But then, I'm old enough to remember watching a 30...

    If you want an illustration for "great service", WalMart doesn't even make the top 100 list. Low prices, absolutely [though they don't stay low, if you notice], but you get what you pay for. At WalMart and in expedited delivery.

    Wondering

    I keep expecting advertisers to invest in license plate reader technology, so their billboards can target specific vehicles passing by. Like "Hey, Joe Blow: you need some brighter fog lights, and we got 'em! On sale!!" It's only science fiction till it happens, eh?

    About time WI catches up!

    Didn't forgot, Bush has nowhere near the money & power of the Koch Bros, much less the influence. Hard to believe, but not every little thing is/was his fault, lol. ;)

    OMG I shoulda slept in the van!

    There's a good argument for avoiding touristy places: if you need a motel, it's a nightmare! The room that cost me $75/day in WV costs $275 in Myrtle Beach, for exactly the same 'amenities'! [Well, except for the beach, lol] Actually, the room rate was far less in WV, but like a lot of places...

    Because it would be a fatal error to go against popular opinion, in such a PC dominated field?

    Baltimore Rioting, Looting OK According to Mayor

    What you [personally and generically] "imagine", rather than troubling to learn facts, is largely responsible for the rage expressed in rioting. You know exactly nothing about whether any one of the people you see have experienced abuse, injustice, degradation, etc, but you have no problem...

    Evil Swiss Army Knives

    Good thing the Canadian Border guards didn't buy the story about cutting Swedish pizza, and took Moot's away, lol. He might have to tear the pizza instead, but we're all safer for it. :rolleyes:

    School lunches

    Except that where the argument "they just don't want to accept responsibility" is used to explain behaviors one can't know the reasons for, [like unemployment], in this case, the food preparers are failing to do the specific job they're paid for knowing how to do. Maybe the unappetizing stuff...

    WYOMING TRUCK ACCIDENT

    It's not the smartphones to blame, it's the jackasses who have taken over the CB, flooding it with their immaturity. I turned mine off years ago, sigh.

    April "Rabbit rabbit rabbit"

    Hope they don't send you to a certain mall in Pittsburgh, where you can't see a dock when you turn into the drive. You see a store dead ahead, a parking garage with a 7 ft clearance to the left, and a parking lot studded with islands [to keep big trucks out] to the right. And as you peruse...

    Americas most popular Mom

    Makes me wonder how many moms [and dads] didn't get honored for their actions, because nobody caught it on film, because they kept their offspring away from the trouble?

    I'm no fan of Hillary, but WTH? It's not a freaking beauty contest!

    Um, don't the Koch Bros have a lot [and in their world ," a lot" runs to bazillions] invested in various oil industries?

    Baltimore Rioting, Looting OK According to Mayor

    Neither is abuse of authority, and the people rioting have suffered a great deal more of that, and for a much longer time, than their outburst of anarchy. As to damages, how many looted businesses and/or burned vehicles equal thousands of people feeling they have nothing to lose? BTW: the...

    About time WI catches up!

    I've seen a speed limit changed in Ohio twice, to placate residents: first, when a teen boy rolled his car & died going way above the posted limit of 35 on a curve, his [locally influential] mother campaigned to have the limit reduced to 25, and it was. The second was when trucks avoided the...
