I need to replace the rear tires on my car, and if I go with Pirelli, it would cost me $375 a tire at one place, or $319 at another. The second place has an American made tire of the same size an quality, but all weather instead of summer-specific tires, for $219. You can take a wild guess which tires I am buying ;)
 
Happy wife, Happy Motoring, and most of all, Happy Birthday.

Thank you TxRad.

My wife's two new tyres cost £99.90 fitted. I don't think I could buy UK made tyres anywhere.
 
I drive most places that I go. The only place I don't drive to is the Applebees next to where I work, and yet I still pull my car keys out when I leave there to head back to my office.

When I was in Vegas, I left my car keys at home, and yet I was still reaching for them every time I left a casino.

And this morning I dreamed that I lived on Long Beach Island (summer homes along the southern Jersey shore), and worked in Atlantic City in a Casino. Every other woman that I have crushed on in the last few years was in that dream...


No, not Long Beach Island, even though the state park is great. It's too far from AC anyway. I want to be in a little town on the north end of Barnegat Island...you know the one, Thee - the little town of Loveladies.

Sorry, it's not an isolated blurt....so...

The Solutrean hypothesis is a joke, people!!!:eek:

My grandparents used to have a Harvey Cedars ocean side beach front house. I miss that house...

Twenty minutes of stop-and-go traffic with a manual transmission after kung fu class isn't very good for my legs...
 
How come idiots are more annoying in the middle of the night than in the middle of the day? :rolleyes:

If he wakes me up again, I will shoot him.
 
I never lost letters when I wrote them so what the hell is with e-mails lately. :eek:
 
And then there are days like today, where I feel like there isn't any way anyone could love me :(
 
A few months back, I contacted a German genealogical research group to trace my European roots as far back as they could. I received their report on my family tree in the mail today. It was delivered in a Deutsch bag.

I remember the last guy I heard bragging about his family tree, I didn't have the heart to tell him it looked like a telephone pole. :cool:

I think you'll start seeing Deutsch bags everywhere soon. Its the newest thing. Theyre plentiful and bio-degradable. :D
 
The actress who plays "Wendy" in the new Wendy's commercials is such a fox. Damn, I love redheads! She's rather flirty, too. :devil:
 


There are a whole bunch of disgustingly fat people in this country.

More Than 40% of U.S. May Be Obese by 2030, Study Says
By Elizabeth Lopatto

The obesity rate may rise to 42 percent from about a third of the U.S. population by 2030 if nothing changes, according to a report.

Preventing that increase may save about $550 billion in medical costs over the next 20 years, Eric Finkelstein, the study author and an associate research professor at Duke University, said during a press briefing. The findings, presented today at the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention’s Weight of the Nation obesity conference, also suggest the surge in obesity may be slowing.

Two-thirds of U.S. adults are overweight and one-third are obese, according to the Atlanta-based CDC. The findings predict that the number of people who are severely obese, or about 100 pounds overweight, will double to 11 percent. Those people are at the highest risk for health conditions caused by excess weight, including diabetes and heart disease.

“Obesity rates have been skyrocketing,” Finkelstein said. “If we can keep obesity rates flat, we save about $550 billion.”

Obesity is defined as having a body mass index of more than 30. A 6-foot tall adult man weighing 221 pounds (100 kilograms) or more is considered obese, as is an adult woman standing 5 feet, 6 inches tall weighing 186 pounds or more, according to the U.S. National Institutes of Health.

Study Variables
Previous studies had assumed the rate of change would remain the same over time, with obesity prevalence reaching 51 percent of the population by 2030. This study takes into account a number of variables including the cost of fuel, alcohol, fast food, the unemployment rate and changes in demographics.

New drugs and technologies, increased access to recreational facilities and a reduction in childhood obesity may help lower the obesity rate in the total population, the authors wrote in the study published today in the American Journal of Preventive Medicine.

Even a 1 percentage point decrease from the current trend would lead to 2.9 million fewer obese adults in 2030, about the same as the population of Chicago, which was 2.7 million in 2010, according to the paper.

Now where did I put that Blurt Isolator?

Ben you need to check your spelling, I think you made a slight error.
