You bought big books called "Road Atlases" that had maps of each state from Rand McNally, or you bought local "Street Guides" from companies like Thomas Brothers. You would then use a Phone Book to look up a Business Address and then used the map to navigate to them.

You have no idea how happy this makes me. I end up time shifting my DVR recordings by a day most of the time anyway. And at 67, I'm still under 70.

Add to this the premise of a "party line". The movie Pillow Talk is a Rom-com built on that antiquated premise...

I'm a Marine Vet and I did the same. The Marine Corps flag flies in front of my house, but the American flag won't fly until the Orange Menace is gone.

In total, there are 27 exclamation points in the decision, only one of which comes in a quote from Trump. Suffice to say, Judge Leon does not like what President Trump tried to do with the executive order and is not hesitant to make his strong opinions on the matter clear. The entire EO is blocked.

Never. I love Wienerschnizel. But I have to drive 150 miles for the nearest one in Tacoma.

The Emerson Lake and Palmer "bird" album was one the first albums I ever bought, and it was primarily driven by "Lucky Man". But I fell in love with the whole album once I had it.

In Oregon, my Car Insurance doubled over the past two years, with no change in vehicles or coverage, and no chargeable accidents.

My mother used to cut a slit in a hot dog, fill it with peanut butter, then wrap it in bacon and broil it. They were delicious!

I’ve been 100% behind him since 2020. When Pete Buttigieg is in the room, he is always the smartest man in the room.
