@NotGolfinDave....how far are you from Bedford OH?  Looks like I have to wander out there next month.
There's only one town between mine and Bedford. That'll be a nice short drive.
But most important question....how far to the nearest decent Lounge  (that is open after 6:00)

You want decent or open? Getting both could be an issue.... jk

I adjusted my wife's headlights this morning...
And the rear view camera, too?
Check the oil?
Change the fluids?
Check the brake pads?
....the list can go on.....

Open would probably be a good first qualifier.

G'Morning, Folks... Big Ben, Parliament.
I'll take Football and Disco for $200, Alex.
My wife needed some new shoes, so we stopped at the Shoe Carnival in Fairview Heights.  It was 3:00 in the afternoon, and they were playing Disco and Beach Boys music.  I asked my wife, "Who are they trying to target with this music...?"  The strange thing is, I almost bought my wife some go-go boots...
Gotta love a woman in boots.

Probably this one I found recently, tucked away near my house. Found them when I was looking for those golf cigars Barry was pushing. http://www.perfectashcigars.com/

It was more like European Vacation this morning... around in circles... I just can't get left!

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iAgX6qlJEMc
I hate that feeling...  Once I went to a computer store in St. Louis.  I was in the left lane and I knew the store was coming up within the next few blocks so I was slowing down and watching for the store.  A car got on my bumper and blew his horn non-stop for about 3 blocks before I found the store.  I was a nervous wreck.  But when I made my turn, I did it as slow as possible, almost in slow motion.  Basically, I'm a asshole at times...  :o

Actually sounds like he was the asshole. Did you give him the universal "you're number one" sign?
No... As soon as he could get around me, he took off.  I just wasn't sure why he didn't go into the right lane and pass me rather than to just ride my bumper.  I'm sure he thought I was the crazy driver.  You know, "Illinois driver in Missouri."  In Illinois the stop lights are on the same corner as you stop.  You pull up even with the stop light and stop.  In Missouri there are allot of stop lights that are across the street on the other corner.  So if you not careful, you'll find yourself stopped even with the stop light, but you in the middle of the intersection... Yikes..!!!  That's happened a few time too.

I don't make left turns.  I plan all my driving in right turns.  Let's say you want to make a left turn.  You go straight and make a right turn at the next block, then another right turn at the next block, then a final right turn at the next block, and there you have it, you're going in the direction of the original left turn.
Assuming of course you are driving on streets in a grid.  You would never survive in DC or Boston.

Hey BD.
What's new in Sam's World....?
Not a whole lot BD.  just received my $7.50 marble ashtray from a page deal a coupe of days ago.  Pretty nice.  Heavy.
I get pretty excited about ashtrays too....  I always regretted that I missed out on that 601 ashtray when it first came out and was dirt cheep on the mash...

Generally not a good idea to stop in the middle of an intersection, regardless of light color...just sayin'.

I adjusted my wife's headlights this morning...
And the rear view camera, too?
Actually, she's scared to look at it.  She was backing out of a parking space, and kept complaining that she can't tell how close she was to the car parked across from her.  I looked at the camera view, and the car across from her was so far away that it wasn't even in the camera view.  I said, "Oh, I can see very well.  Keep going back..., now ya got it..!"  Not once did she look at the camera view.
I feel like that's probably for the best.
Me too...
