Re: a long time ago in a galaxy far far away

Well, I notice that the articles were all dated before Thanksgiving, and here it is now the middle of December.  Perhaps this was an 'Easter egg' that only ran for a short period of time, like when Google re-does their 'Google doodle' to celebrate someone or something, and now things are back to nor...

Re: How intelligent are you?

I also got 164, which merely confirms that which I already knew. And all the ads, hidden arrows, and other distractions were part of the test.  Lesser mortals would start the test and then all of a sudden ---- "oooh, shiny!!". http://www.picgifs.com/smileys/smileys-and-emoticons/cycling/smileys-cycl...

Re: Christmas Plans

For the first time in five years my scheduled days off coincide with Christmas Eve and Christmas Day (and a week later, New Year' Eve and New Year's Day).  Unless I choose to work some overtime (time-and-a-half plus holiday pay on what would probably be a slow day anyway — can't make money any easie...

Re: THANK YOU RB!!

I think you should leave the drawbridge down for now.  Methuselah from the old Car Talk board apparently is involved in a Facebook-based group with some of the old-timers.  He sent messages to some of us inviting us to the Facebook site; but since there are those (like yours truly) who refuse to get...

Cruz is crushing it in Iowa; opens up 10 percentage-point lead over Trump, 31% to 21%.  Poll conducted by the Des Moines Register and Bloomberg.
The beginning of the end for Trump, perhaps?

Re: oil

$1.95 per gallon most places here in my section of western Wisconsin.  I'll be honest; I never expected to see gasoline this cheap again. Of course, it's gonna hurt all over again when it finally starts climbing back to where it was last year at this time.  And you know that's gotta happen sooner or...

I would vote for Snottie Wanker before I would vote for Donald Trump.  And anyone who knows me is aware just how much I loath Wisconsin's current governor. In fact, after watching what the Repugnicants have been doing to this country for the past five years, I think that I would vote Communist, Soci...

I'm willing to bet that these were not taken with an iPhone or other smartphone — quality like this is definitely in the SLR (35mm or digital, makes no difference) realm.

Re: Hows the weather your way?

Longitude 43.8 N (La Crosse, WI) — it is currently 43º F (6.1º C) and we are presently experiencing thunderstorms.  Twenty or thirty years ago this would have been a full-scale early-winter blizzard.
