As usual, not Oakland, but California animals.

This is crazy. When I was young my friends and I went to the library a lot. We would read magazines and play tag as well as work on school projects. Banning children from a library is insane.

Forums are alive and well when looking for car info. Whenever I get a different car I look for communities with the most activity and that is usually a forum.

The one exception I can think of (proving the post to be true) is the first generation Tundra (2000-2007). The FB group had more current news than the forums and I managed to get banned (first time ever).

Where you circumcized after you became sexually active?

If not, how would you know there is no loss?

There is nowhere nice for birds to land the cat can easily reach, by design. I know cats are bad for birds but he is 12 years old and lazy.

I try to help the environment as much as possible but I'm not perfect.

A symbolic boycott is important. They still picked a side in this mess.

OMG, I read the comments.

I'm a guy who showers daily and tries to make sure I don't smell (breath and body). Today, however, I am off from work and only washed my face. I've had that not so fresh feeling all day.

I'm going to take shower right now.

edit - shower complete. also, i was trying to quote ghostbusters in the beginning but messed up it. it should have been "I looked at the comments, Ray".

I wrote a related reply about lack of small trucks in the US last night on The Autopian.

The large pickup/SUV was not exactly chosen by the people. The 1964 Chicken Tax has limited people’s choices and remains in order to give US domestic automakers an advantage over imported competitors. Combined with CAFE rules (Corporate Average Fuel Economy) of the ’70s small trucks were effectively wiped from the US market.

Why would a US automaker produce a small truck when they could produce a larger truck with more profit?

Reality TV is cheaper to produce than scripted shows. Profit is the reason all they show is reality shows.

If the IEEE (electrical engineering society) is saying something it must be really bad. They rarely if ever get involved in things like this.

The US laws prefer large vehicles.

Look into the 25% import tax on small work trucks- https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chicken_tax

Also, larger SUVs and trucks get preferential treatment under gas mileage standards. Someone more familiar can explain better.

FYI - my daily is a 24 year old Subaru.
