  1. Russell Brand......meets Jesus? And....follows?? I pray so....
  2. Banning coal plants by 2039. Chicken Little much?? https://www.nytimes.com/2024/04/25/climate/biden-power-plants-pollution.html
  3. Some time ago I took my son to a birthday party held at an "Axe throwing" place. One of the kids didn't show, so the dad asked me to throw in his place, so I'd did. The "instructor" told us where to stand and how to throw (take a little step with a little throw). I found that with my stride and arm length I was crowding the area behind me as I drew back. The "axe" (little hatchet) hardly ever stuck. In frustration I drew back as far as my arm wanted while taking a naturally long step. And I THREW the axle. BAM! Buried it. Like clockwork, every time. BAM! Stuck. My buddy laughed. Some city folks looked at me like I didn't know something. .. Then the "instructor" worked his way down the line giving everyone instructions on how to throw underhanded, like a girly-man. City folks = ghey.
  4. Nothing to see here....other than the incompetence that I've previously claimed WILL end up killing folks.
  5. So, you're saying that Tesla drivers are morons? lol
  6. I only see one red dot between Paducah and Nashville, that's near Eddyville KY. I think there are 8 charging stations at a motel there (I put on a spare tire there about 8 years ago, those chargers were so new it took me a while to figure out what they were.) Eight chargers to get to Nashville, compared to a few hundred gas pumps? News link claims NY State Police advised EV owners to beware. https://www.newsweek.com/tesla-charging-station-police-solar-eclipse-travel-1888941 My road has lots of interstate travelers. I've pondered using one of my properties as an Air B&B and putting in a charger for EVs.
  7. John, where near I24/Paducah can your TESLA be charged?
  8. While the car is capable of figuring all the things you mentioned, TESLA engineers probably didn't program the solar eclipse schedule into it and add a "figure out how bad traffic will be" equation. Like you mention, Which part of my story do you question/need "news" link for?? Here's one for traffic in Paducah... https://www.wsiltv.com/news/consumer/heavy-traffic-causes-delays-on-i-24-in-paducah-after-total-solar-eclipse/article_b83376bc-f5e6-11ee-b542-ab61bbc8e31b.html
  9. Where'd ya go? We stayed in the backyard for about 2 minutes of totality. Got to see the diamond ring...SUPER impressive! Saw "shadow snakes" too.
  10. John, I think the issue with charging around here was finding a charger that did not have 50 cars waiting to charge. There were SO many people in W KY that I24 eastbound was clogged for over 6 hours after totality. Friends of ours from Knoxville hit that road about 20 minutes after totality and it took them about 4 hours to get to Nashville (normally about 2 hrs.)
  11. No gearing....like a Top Fuel car, eh? lol
  12. T56? Turbo? Did my eyes see that right??
  13. I'm glad ya'll are well! (Excepting the part where the kids want a Camaro....)
  14. ....I remember seeing performers like the Charlie Daniel's Band and Confederate Railroad at the local rodeo. This year one of the performers is Ludacris. I have no idea what he's about....but I don't think he's got much to do with horses, pickup trucks, and blue jeans.
  15. My customer/sorta buddy (the old electrician who's swapped labor with me) is an anti-Trumper. I wrote Trump 2024 on his new transmission, and told him about it a few weeks afterward....as I wrote MAGA on his water pump. He didn't like it, but he can't see either place, so he probably thinks I didn't do it. I asked him about Trump, he said "I don't like him". Have you ever met him? "No." Then how do you know you don't like him? "I just don't like him." OK. (*rolleyes*)

  17. How to fix many of American's problems...
  18. Dumb, dumb, dumb, dumb...
  19. 1:43...stuff slated for disposal. Radial engines??
  20. ^ That last post was from an ignorant person. Said person has bypassed that suspect wire and the code and all driveability symptoms are gone. The test was inadequate to find whatever problem that wire had.
