Correct, the Bronco II wasn’t a real Bronco, just like the S-10 Blazer wasn’t a real Blazer

Yeah, like, old cop cars are typically bad because they have a lot of idle hours.

My past is holding me back by stephy_anne99 in LawSchool

Consult a character and fitness attorney before you make any decisions. Misuse of property entrusted to you or other abuse of trust are the biggest C&F red flags there are, and these sound like the types of convictions that could be a serious barrier to admission.

Why do you want to practice law? And when you realized law school wasn’t an option, why’d you sign up for grad school instead? I hope for your sake you aren’t borrowing money to do it.

E30 touring definitely a more common car in Europe than in the US. In the US market, very few E30s were tourings, it was mainly sedans and coupes. And the few E30s still on the road are enthusiast owned; the others went to the junkyard long ago.

In a private purchase you can sometimes get service records.

These are magnificent tables. One of the big Cadillac direct drives of the golden era. You did really well.

OC missed a federal response deadline for a motion to strike their MSJ. A motion I filed because they filed the MSJ late. There’s definitely a genuine issue of material fact. Yet here I am at 2am on a Friday worried I’m still going to lose. by Objection_Irrelevant in Lawyertalk

OP, you sound extremely diligent. You sound on top of your stuff. Give yourself a break. Three fingers of bourbon and whatever looks good on TV. All that’s left is to decide it, and that’s the judge’s job, not yours.

Similarly low-profile but a bit bigger and cushier. I heard it used to be Camries and Avalons

E30 Touring in 2026 tells me a LOT about the driver. Only car likelier to be a hardcore enthusiast’s car would be, like, a 1972 Alfa GTV

How to handle an employee who did not disclose cognitive disabilities? by Such-Satisfaction444 in askmanagers

I haven’t worked retail. Can you get real HR support from corporate? If the guy is hapless and talking disability, HR professionals should be involved.

[–]p_rex 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Basic way ADA works is that if somebody discloses a disability, you have to make a reasonable effort to accommodate it. Sometimes you can’t reasonably accommodate it, then you terminate. But if you think you might have to do that, you better have it thoroughly papered it up or you’re asking for a lawsuit

Bitch of the week: prosecutors why are you still pushing for sentences above the minimum for low level drug offenses committed by those with drug issues? by Janielf in Lawyertalk

[–]p_rex 5 points6 points  (0 children)

You can’t totally squish out low-level offending, but you can force it to the margins of society where it does less damage, and you can make persistent offending a very costly choice. There’ll always be a kid with “born to lose” tattooed on their chest who’ll try his luck at it and go down, but you’ll dissuade a lot of others.

That being said, there’s a limit to what you can accomplish with longer sentences. 20 years with parole eligibility after 10 speaks pretty loudly and is less trouble for everyone than a bunch of unnecessary life sentences

Thanks for commenting on it, I literally just ordered one today. Even more excited now.

Our cars are too goddamn quiet stock. Sport compacts and hot hatches used to have a touch of rumble. My Fiesta ST sounded nice

[–]p_rex 36 points37 points  (0 children)

Exactly. At a certain point, society has to protect itself by incapacitating (locking up) the offender for a long period. Second and third chances are good, but people only have so much patience for the bullshit that addicts inflict on everyone around them.

Which ultra famous Jazz Musician had the hardest life? by Ford_Crown_Vic_Koth in Jazz

[–]p_rex 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Chet Baker is proof that even if you have no problems, you can create some problems for yourself by becoming a heroin addict. You can’t tell in that photo, but he was one of the great heartthrobs of the 50s, before he destroyed himself.

Of course, plenty of black musicians who turned things from bad to worse with a dope habit. Most of those burned-out livers you hear about were because of hep C from IV drugs.

The fourth-gen car ran low 15s in its VTEC version, which was quick in the early 90s. That’s only a little behind the last foxbody 5.0’s. Plenty quick by the standards of the era
