Anytime I see someone characterize a newborn's height as "long", I immediately think "how can a baby be that well endowed"?

Mat_Drinks posted:I love cooking chicken this way. Olive oil and a bit of salt, pepper and oregano make the skin taste super good It's actually one of the worse ways to cook a chicken, the beer doesn't add any flavor and it makes it harder to get to the right internal temperature before the outside is overdone. Spatchcock your chickens, always.

So a dude that works at my wife's school just recently got his mom's (grandma's?) '53 Ford Crestline. Apparently he's not much of a car guy but really wanted to have a restoration project with his son. Unfortunately, it seems that his son doesn't give a poo poo so I may actually end up helping out some. I don't really know poo poo about cars of this vintage so I'm not really sure where to start. Not sure when the car was last run, either, but I figure the standard of all fluids, filters, and rubber would be a good place to start. Unfortunately, ALL of the glass is gone and needs to be replaced. Either way, might be fun to work on something that old.

What's our current best thread to discuss possibly car purchases/sales? It might be time to have one fun/fast car and one POS DD instead of two fun/fast cars.

If you can't find any windows and have to get custom ones made you might as well just chop the roof anyway. Glass is mighty expensive. I haven't worked on any 50s cars yet but have on lots of 60s ones, pretty curious what you'll find.

Apparently he's been looking for junkyards for replacements, but it's rare to find anything that old. Story is that every window was broken by assholes. hosed up. No idea on any info on the car. If anything does happen, it'll be over the summer once he has time. If I end up getting roped into this thing, maybe I'll start a thread.

Yesterday Bernie Sanders was in town for a huge rally. This morning Ted Cruz was at a small diner around the corner from my house. Later today, Trump is gonna be in town. Primary times are strange, man.

I never thought I'd learn something from Archer, along with being entertained... Thomas Edison really did electrocute an elephant to demonstrate how AC current was unsafe (granted, he fed the elephant 6600V, which is ridiculous overkill). Plus, he shot video of it: :nsfw: obviously: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NoKi4coyFw0

Yeah, Edison was a huge rear end in a top hat and did all manner of disgusting poo poo to show the "dangers of alternating current!!!!". I don't buy into the Tesla hero-worship but at least he wasn't intentionally electrocuting animals.

I get the feeling that the guys behind Archer take a very special pride in being accurate as possible with completely out-of-loving-nowhere jokes, which is part of what makes it great.

It gets the most traffic. You'll have to weed through the sarcasm but you'll have a blend here of people telling you to buy land rovers and busses to vintage BMW's and then others saying Miata. The only sanctioned car buying thread is in BFC which I trolled for a while but it's mostly full of people asking lame questions to where 'don't buy a rental, don't buy a salvage, you should get a Prius' is 95% of the answers. Sell your Mazdas(Mazdi?); get a standard 6 and then a BMW. The E9X are in such a sweetheart of a price point right now it's outrageous.
