How to improve your driving in 3 easy steps...
1) say "I'll call you back later" 2) press the red button once 3) rest your cellphone on the passengers seat. It cannot get much easier than that. Today, I was behind someone leaving a parking lot and I'm waiting and waiting. No cars were on
Because it’s Valentine’s Day

I wish you read it...
Yes I confess I was wrong. I realised it just after but couldn't apologize. I do it now. My mind was playing games with me by assurances and reassurances that it was not that bad as she claimed and that she mistook and misunderstood me But those m
My final blog for today
Just having some fun. No insults intended. I stand firmly in my delusion that this is a dating site. Have fun debating social injustices.
Females and mechanical things---such as automobiles....
Sure, there are clued lady mechanics, and race car drivers. Recall that weeny worshiper Amelia Ehrhardt. But in my experience, there is a strong inverse correlation betwen just what women know about such things, and how jealously they guard related i
Arrested Development
I started watching this show and it cheers me up every time. It's so silly and clever. It's so not PC. Lol I love it.
Drive-out tags...
When you buy a vehicle at a dealer, they often issue a temporary tag until they can get the permanent tag issued. For years, I've heard people reference this as a 'paper tag' The paper tag is usually good for 2-3 weeks giving enough time for the dea

Happy 42nd B-day Touchdown Tommy!
August already, and father time is breathing down Tom Brady's neck! No matter what happens this season, Tom Brady has surpassed all expectations and has made it almost awkward to be a fan. I usually root for the underdog, but with the Pats, I couldn'
Slower traffic keep right...
The signs are on the highway. Now that I'm doing half the miles as I did when I lived in Miami, I still enjoy a drive on a few roads in south Florida. This was the case on Sunday when I drove to Miami Beach to drop off samples to a customer, catch a
Once you go black...
Yeah, I know the first thing that pops in your head when you hear that phrase: Once you go black. Summer in South Florida can be brutal. Over the years, I had one white car and usually the others were silver. The one I bought a year ago is a dark gra
Gas prices??
Earlier this year, gas prices fluctuated a bit and were around $3.40 a gallon. A week ago, they shot up 40 cents. By Friday they were $4.00, then $4.20 on Sunday. Tuesday marked $4.50 and today, the place I normally buy from dropped to $4.18 I'm

Dispite Some denials
New witness states that lush lawns deplete the earth of necessary water for hydration of twolegged critters even though sprinkler systems are used casually, like water grows on trees.
Spartacus Hubcaps...
I was a kid when the movie Ben-Hur came to theaters. 1959 to be exact. One scene was the Chariot Race and if you were like me... you were hanging on the EDGE OF YOUR SEAT!! The scary part was Messala, the bad guy who had a chariot equipped with a sh
Frits?
Yeah, they're called frits. The perimeter of a car windshield (windscreen if you are in England) has a series of graduated dots that transition into solid black. The graphic pattern is enamel that is baked to the glass and used as a primer to hold th
Sunday drivers...
I was on the highway at 9 this morning headed to a meeting with a real estate agent. They forgot to alert me today was the contest to see who could out maneuver who. I wanted no part of it, especially knowing this road is notorious for unmarked Highw

My car is under manufacturers warranty and I'm entitled to some free oil changes. I booked an appointment about a week in advance and they confirmed by email. The email also contained an advertisement. The next day, I received another confirmation
Elon Musk and the ventilators...
Last week I read that Elon Musk donated ventilators to a New York hospital. I believe the quantity stated was 1,000 units. Then I read it was 40 units and the hospital couldn't use the machines as they weren't ventilators, they were BiPAP (air pre
BMW, the ultimate crashing machine...
I know BMW advertises their cars as the ultimate driving machine, but in the hands of an idiot, they become the ultimate crashing machine. When the Highway Patrol pull you over, they come to the passenger side of the vehicle for safety. A Police off
Supply & Demand: Paying more than sticker price on a new car...
COVID knocked out car manufacturing worldwide. New cars, factory parts, after-market parts. Everything. If you were lucky enough to 'get in line' for a new car, the wait (in the beginning) was months. Because of this, the value of used cars went up.

Drive-By-Wire... part 2
I've been putting off car maintenance for a long time. With a shopping list of things that needed to be done, I arranged car rental and the mechanic got me his corporate rate. That allowed me to get an SUV for the same price as a compact. This worked
We're getting a break on gas prices this winter...
In November, the price of gasoline (around here) was around $3.15 per gallon and dropped to $2.85 before Thanksgiving. After, it went up to $3.10 for a few days and it's back below $3. Since some directly blame the president when the price goes up,
Switchblade: A flying car...
I'm cleaning up bookmarks and came across a story about an electric car with airplane capabilities. The story said it's 14 years in the making and going through it's next series of tests. In July, the FAA determined it was safe for flight testing.
The smell of car tires...
Flashback to the winter of 1970 and I was in a band performing at a nightclub in Daytona Beach. The gig was a week long and the management provided us a small apartment to stay at. It was a two story building, living quarters on top and a business o
