I couldn't get close. The TGR security detail there was tighter than a Madonna concert.

AKPM is all growed up and learning to fly planes apparently. So perhaps this place has been a good influence?

I don't know how to embed FB videos.

The Frecce Tricolori display team during flyover at the Alpine World Ski Championships 2021 in Cortina d'Ampezzo, Italy.

Have you tried this one yet?

Yes. Hutash. That's good to hear. He would usually respond to something like an itchy dog thread and I think he was being paged in his own thread a while back. I missed seeing any recent posts...

^I guess I could run over it with the bike.



How long do these midlife crisis's generally last?

We still don't have a replacement ornithologist, or an exotic car sales/basement pot farming expert.

The airplane repo business looks fun.

She's sending me pictures of cats from the local shelter every day.

My wife said I can buy a motorcycle if she can get a cat. I've been pretending to be allergic to cats for 15 yrs. What should I do?

I did not know this. Thanks.

Is there an algorithm that takes into account your screen dimensions and font and converts it to a standard reference number?

Just ask.

Let's just say a sign saying "Area closed for avalanche control purposes" was more or less an invitation to ski that particular area for DD. You have to remember that in Minnesota...

I miss DD and his mom, but I'm really not sure what either of those two were experts in.



Noted and thank you for your contributions to society.



We've been trying to fill that...

That's exactly my point. We now have that guy. It's like replacing Mike Trout with Tim Tebow

I don't have a cat. Asking for a friend.

Seems we've lost our lawyer/ornithology expert, our atheist vet, culinary expert papapoopski, and I could go on. Bottom line is this place is losing experts faster than the arctic is melting. I'm...

Would any of these remedies work for an itchy pussy?

They throw D cells.

Yeah, you hardly ever see a high mileage Japanese bike selling for more than a salvage price--except maybe a Goldwing. Yet a HD or BMW of same mileage hold their value.

Some of the best values...

Well, you or anyone doesn't know where the afterlife is actually located. It could be Utah.

How do you heist $20K from Costco before getting caught? Do they not have security cameras there?

What are the chances that Benny (sometimes called Bunny) starts a thread about going to Utah the day before this dude (actually named Bunny,) ends up going there? At least one in a million I'd say. ...

I have a neighbor, a plastic surgeon, who bid on and won a week in an Aston Martin at a local charity auction. The car, it was a Vantage circa 2018, was donated by the the local Aston Martin dealer...

I liked this part...

"A properly detailed and presented automobile with an AMG shift knob has been the rare exception to the current decline, says Hagerty's Mike Swift."

Me too. I was expecting pictures and pithy commentary about interactions with the locals.

But anyway, whoever that dude is, it looks like he enjoyed life so may he rest in peace.

Anybody active on the AMG forums who could do a virtual house check on Drew? I kinda miss him and his mom posting here.

Someone should get Candide over to that iced up Niagara Falls and make a mooovie. Conditions look sorta comparable to a thaw/refreeze of Ovation at the big K.

^^Same thing happens if you park a car in the Bronx. They can pull it apart in like 30 mins.

I can't speak to the X3 but with British cars the breakdowns are part of the charm and provide an owner stories to tell by the fireside.

Did you ever notice Lake Erie filling up?

Everybody has a "friend" who's had trouble of some sort with a particular brand of car it seems.

The only people driving 15 yr old Mercedes's by me are Indian dudes. I'm not sure if they live in their mom's basements though.

Could Lake Erie overflow as a result?

IIRC KQ has a beaver.

Is that an Upstate thing? I've never seen one in NJ.

Perhaps it was free?

I went to South Bend, IN once in the middle of the winter. All the girls had tans. I asked what that was about. A...

Will he be paying in Bitcoin?

In his case its a $9000 question.

Have the car put on a lift and checked by an independent mechanic. I tell this to everyone buying a used car. I can't believe most people don't do that before...

Going monolith hunting Benn's?

Or Cockaigne.

Unlike the glaciers that visited the region some 20,000 yrs ago, I feel we've barely scratched the surface of Upstate TR's.

Based on your recommendation Aldo, I said to the Mrs., "after Covid, instead of Austria, perhaps we head up to this area?"

I was disappointed to read this in Tripadvisor. Though these comments...

The 325i engines are good for 1,000,000+ miles. I was briefly involved in the million mile project BMW at Mobil. It was on a dyno but still...

I think she goes by Leroy Jenkins.

Yeah but legally can he play blackjack and hire hookers?

Priorities.

How would he find out? From Lindsey?

I'm in the market for a new bike. So I hit up one of the local dealerships.

I was looking at team really red,

365365

and then I saw this effort from team green.

Holy shit, does this...

That's gotta be a 75-80 on the Upstate Tuck Scale? Any confirmation on that Also?
