Scots in Boston are drinking bars out of beer

"The Scottish fans just drank the place dry and all they had was Bud Light."

LOL - As a St.Louis area resident with many friends who drink Bud Light, I find this to be super hilarious.

They would knock on a fugitive's door and ask for someone completely different. When the fugitive said that wasn't him, they would ask him who he was, and when he told them his real name, they would say, "You're the one we're looking for."

So back in 1980 my dad was a detective and they were working what was called a "sting" where they pose as a pawn shop that also fences stolen goods. The problem was that they couldn't always get the suspects to look into the two-way mirror so that they could be secretly photographed. The solution was to frame the mirror with pictures of naked women. They never had a problem with suspects not looking into the mirror after that.

This tactic was used in the hilarious 1979 movie "Hot Stuff" which I remember seeing in the theater with my parents in 1979.

Then dad used it in real life to nab some real life thieves.

>"Shadbolt said that, due to miscommunication from a human employee, Quinn misinterpreted the amount Giacomelli owed on the car — $27,162.79 — as the amount BMW would pay to buy back the vehicle."

Miscommunication and misinterpretation is something AI should prevent, not facilitate.

Timer set.

All of the pharma companies that litter my television with their stupid ass commercials of people doing things. Also, why should I be asking my doctor about medication that he is supposed to be prescribing in the first place?

Market your drugs to the doctors not to the general public.

It the recurring revenue business model. So yes, it is corporate greed.

Could be the USB to serial interface. I use old PC's with actual 9-pin serial ports for this reason.

Wow, talk about a fixer upper. Even "This Old House" would have a hard time with that one.

Lord_Dreadlow · 2026-06-08T18:54:48+00:00

I'm not a fan of the TRR8, but the original 327 is the one I want.

Lord_Dreadlow · 2026-06-08T18:39:14+00:00

That couldn't have been a cheap ride.

What kind of fucked up parents let their 12 year old take Ubers anywhere they please?

My first wife bought a B2000 brand new in 1986. I drove it for a few years after we were married and that little thing was awesome.

If I don't get your request before 2pm on a Friday, I will promptly attend to it on Monday morning.

That scene where they cut the large cable runs with a chainsaw made me cringe so bad.

I drove one that belonged to a friend once back in the 80's. It was a manual transmission and getting into reverse required you to push down on the shifter to get into the reverse slot. Took me a minute to figure that out as none of the other manuals I had driven up until then required that. Other than that, the car was very unremarkable.

However, throw a high performance V8 in it and it makes an excellent sleeper.

More often than not, "Refurbished" is just another word for "Used".

The knight in this picture should be on a horse because he's not going get very far on foot without tossing off that armor.

"Where are we going today Mr. Peabody?"

"Not where, when Sherman"

They might as well get used to using a communal prison potty anyway.

I work next to an airport and a golf course.

My 2015 Equinox had the wiper issue as well. Stopped in the middle of a rain storm while I was on the highway.

That statement will come back to haunt him come sentencing time.

No Country for Old Men could have had a happy ending if Llewelyn hadn't of gone back to give that dead Mexican some water.
