It was on the agenda until the GS came up. The money I was going to spend on a new DD is going into the GS now. H3 is gonna be around for a while.
I think about all the things we could have done, all the miracles we could have achieved, if we were all just a little bit better than it turns out we are.

Whenever you use forceful and overt verbal persuasion to try to convince others to see things your way, they're probably not listening to what you say, Instead they're looking for every error in you your logic and mistakes in your facts, all the while constructing counterarguments. Worse still, they don't merely believe you're wrong; they need you to be wrong in order to protect the status quo. And since the final judge exists in their own head, you lose every time. - The Influencer
Is the level of bullshit you have to go through to change things in a direction you want, less than than or equal than the level of current bullshit?

If I can't get a 2G Volt, I'll just stick with the devil I know.

We rarely get serious snow here. Ice is a bigger concern, and 35" tires don't help with that at all. If it's bad enough, I'll just work from home.

The check was delivered late last night. Like, 8:45 local time. I'm glad someone was still there to sign for it.

Hopefully we can get this process moving again this afternoon.

Time for some silly trivia.

My first payment will be 5/14. My payments for the Stingray were also on the 14th. Funny little coincidence.

I don't know if I ever mentioned this, but the build date for my Stingray was Friday the 13th (6/13/2014).

If the source I found is correct, the build date for the GS is April 20, 2017. 4/20. Fortunately it was a Thursday, so hopefully nobody was too baked when they built it. :lol:

I manage pick cars with amusing build dates.

So what exactly does this car have that your other one didn’t.
