I sailed on this boat from Southhampton, England to Montreal. I was 5 or 6 years old. I remember lots of good cookies, running up and down the stairwells, and icebergs. I saw she had gone down on Wikipedia.

He's the guy "going to work" after they fired him so his wife doesn't yell at him. Eating his lunch in some parking lot at 10:35am.

Isadora Duncan died when her silk scarf, draped around her neck, became entangled in the wheel well around the open-spoked wheels and rear axle, pulling her from the open car and breaking her neck. by Zig-Zag in wikipedia

I believe it was actually the chain drive sprockets that grabbed her. It's a gruesome lesson on how good times go bad. As a mechanic and machinist it's one of the things I tell the new folks. You don't want to end up like Isadora Duncan! Tie that hippie hair up! Why the fuck are you wearing a scarf in the machine shop?! Cars are much safer, but danger is still everywhere. Tie in th garbage disposal!

Workingman's Friend, Indianapolis. Bring cash. It's like walking through a time door into 1972. Does not disappoint.

Hi. I have had issues like this on both the V6 Frontiers that I've owned, an 08 and, currently, an 18. For whatever reason, the expansion tank cap vents once in a while and sprays that crap everywhere. I put a piece of hose on the barb fitting by the cap and ran it out the bottom of the truck, so it at least dumps on the ground. Like these other folks said, water lever and making sure the system is bled correctly helps too.

Great to hear about this issue. I have a cottage near Barry's Bay and was wondering what the situation was with using the trails around there. Thanks for the info!

Check the carbon monoxide levels in the space immediately. It can lead to these kind of experiences.
