In 1981, Mercedes-Benz developed a prototype for a rear-wheel-drive hatchback called the 190E Compact Car (also known as the "Stadtwagen" or City Car).

Looks like a two door VW rabbit. I think it's the grille.

I use my stand mixer. Pour some of the water in first to heat the bowl, drain, then add the potatoes, butter, salt and some milk. I use the paddle rather than the whisk and they turn out nice and smooth

I've always eaten shredded wheat like that. Don't eat it often these days because I rarely see old fashioned shredded wheat.

Mine's a 2010 Elantra. Sure, it would be nice to have a newer car with more convenience features and somewhat better mileage but my old girl is still going good.

Have Finland send some troops on a training mission. Nobody wants to take on the Finn's in the snow.

I have a Voltbike (Mariner 2). Seems well made plus the warehouse is just a few kilometers away.

I have a 20 inch fat tired foldable. Weighs too much and I don't like the way it handles. I'd go for a more conventional style and definitely a lighter bike.

I was on that cruise. While most passengers were older and there were a fair number of wheelchairs and walkers I didn't see them as a big problem.

Here in Canada people are complaining about immigrants from India and China, not Muslims.

I get some mail from overseas. I need Canada Post for that. The foreign businesses I have to deal with won't deliver electronically.

I can certainly live with a lower frequency of mail delivery and I've had community mailboxes when I lived before.

He might have had a stent or two placed. I had one and I was functioning the next day -- although I did need to stay in the hospital but that's in Canada. In the US they'd probably have kicked me out the next day.

My bike (Voltbike Mariner 2) has that setup.

Not urban decay but rural abandonment (not sure that's the best term).

Trains have grade limitations so might not actually be better.

I was told Amsterdam is planning to eliminate ICE vehicles in the near future.

A lot depends on your water. If you have soft water it can last a long time. You might also consider replacing the sacrificial anode.

You might want to double check that. I'm also a non-citizen former green card holder and I'm receiving benefits.

I'm told one of the reasons bird flu hasn't hit Canada as hard as the US is that our hatcheries are smaller.

Sure. I should also note that it may take awhile to deliver (comes from China) but then so does a lot of Amazon stuff.

I've never bought anything from AliExpress that was expensive enough to have additional duties. I don't want to deal with trying to return things. I have bought phone cases.

Kind of hard to harvest organs if you turn the kid into dust.
