Hopefully the patent also includes turning on the AC when the dog is detected. Too many pets and kids left in the car on hot days.

Twin Peaks was amazing. I wish broadcast TV hadn’t chickened out of Mulholland Drive.

I think if they are a good singer who can interpret material well, it’s great. I mean look at Dolly Parton and Whitney Houston — they both performed amazing versions of “I will always love you” but only one of them wrote it.

I do find it funny how most famous singers these days will claim a songwriting credit by adding one line to a tune. Gotta get that publishing credit $$$$!

Higher profit margins.

Europeans get the bulk of cheaper and smaller EVs. Meanwhile in North America, Ford stopped selling sedans. It’s a niche that car makers could fill if they wanted to.

As much as I hate Elon, this is a terrible idea. Cheap Chinese trash mobiles built by Uyghur slave labor are not the answer.

How about we build cars in Canada instead?

It was a cop out. Let’s all meet at the church and kum ba yah.

No pay off and few answers after all those seasons.

 

I keep hearing I should get a flu shot to help prevent bird flu — but I thought flu shots only prevented illness from the particular strains the shot was designed for. Does getting a traditional flu shot do anything to prevent bird flu transmission?
