^^ Ehh, looks quite "techie" and all, but I have to say I'm not that impressed with the resulting lap time. At 2:40.33, it is hardly comparable to humans in lesser supercars.

Just got back from picking up my mom. 90 years old, and she was the victim of a hit & run. She's okay, but the car is not.

2014 Camry with less than 6500 miles. I don't think they'll total it, but it took a hard hit. Headlight shattered into a million pieces, but the damn bulbs still work, go figure. I was more pissed about the whole mess than she was. Sorry for the crappy pics:

Earlier for Patreon supporters. And seriously, everybody should send these guys a few bucks a month. There's no better car project series on the internet for my money. Although if you have any suggestions, I'm always looking for new and better ways to waste my time.

A retired electrical engineer, who now bakes pies in a rustic little cafe in a technically non-existent town in New Mexico. I envy this guy tremendously:

Yeah makes no sense to me either why those are like 250.. its a square god damn sheet metal box. On a side note, we sell these at work used for a better price. Local pick up near ohare. Not advertising, just trying to save you some money.

Son's closet light pull broke. So, do I put in another ratty old string? No way. Do I find a piece of beaded chain and stick that in
there? Nope. Spend a couple of bucks and a few hours down in the shop making a fancy-*** pull that no one will see? Of course!

^^ Nice!

I just went ahead and put all the closet (and other remote places) lights on automatic occupancy sensor/timer switches, since apparently neither my spouse, nor our progeny, showed the least regard for leaving them on 24/7.

Pricier than a string to be sure, but the added peace in the kingdom is priceless.

Why is Pie Town technically non-existent? I was there in early 2015, did something change?
