Inspired by Scott — Mon, 02 Nov 2026 19:13:12 +0000

Washington State just did something rare in the car business: it let a customer buy a car from the company that made it. Well, from two companies. Rivian and Lucid, to be exact, and only if they clear a list of conditions that reads like a bouncer’s dress code. Lawmakers passed SB 6354 in March. ...

Scott — Tue, 21 Sep 2010 00:06:07 +0000

I don’t have energy to re-write all the details – mainly because it just makes me angry all over again. But the bottom line is pretty simple: CyberPower SUCKS! Below is an e-mail I sent to them in some effort to get some satisfaction. The highlights are this: CyberPowerPC sent me my new, rather expensive, ...

Evacuee Behavior – Hurricane Gustav

Similar stories were common coming out of New Orleans after Hurricane Katrina and they need to be heard. This is absolutely ridiculous. This is how people act? Deplorable.

I can’t say it more clearly, nor can the rules of the road. THE LEFT LANE IS FOR PASSING ONLY! The left lane does not exist for you to pick what is “fast enough” as*hole! If you are not passing another car in the middle lane GET THE HELL OVER and let those of us ...
