You're quite the pessimist. I was thinking we'd at least end up going to the hospital for awhile first.

Too much traffic there in the daytime, but not a bad place to practice parking later in the day. Cemetery usually doesn't have anyone around who isn't already dead.:spinny:

and then you have to go back yet again, to politely say "are you blind? if I bold this will you finally give me the information I asked for three times now?"

I decided to wait until I had higher ups input on what coffeepot they would like. We would probably buy our own beans. Oh, they're just a small office. We only care because of the national contract... ugh.

Make it a manual transmission to increase the level of difficulty!

That funny little pedal on the left is becoming more and more unfamiliar to everyone. Heck, it's even hard to find a manual anymore.

Now Wx will be inundating RT with airplane pictures!

Well I was going to post one I took Tuesday night in Independence and say daddy like as a CW impersonation. It appears that you can't just attach or upload a picture very easily. That or I just can't find it.

To teach his four kids how to drive a stick grandfather in-law to drive a stick he took them to the boat ramp in CR, backed the car down it and switched places. He had described and shown them how to do it but his only instruction from there was "don't get us wet".

I learned to drive a stick on my dad's F-150, it was a short box, 4 speed overdrive (so essentially a 3 speed with 4th being overdrive)...also a tall rear end in it, and of course the pickup shifter, so the throw between gears covered approximately a square meter...so if you could get that thing going in 1st gear, you could get anything going.

It was a kids movie! My "kids" are in their mid-to-late 30s!! And both of us intensely dislike Hickory Park!!!!

Now, if you come up for a basketball game, heck yeah, we'll meet up with you before/during/after the game.
