I sell tires for a living. I can attempt to answer any tire-related questions that you may have for free. In the unlikely event that you're reading this AND car shopping, allow me to provide a smidgen of advice:avoid cars with low-profile tires or "optional" rim sizes. That 18" may look cool, and it'll be amazingly responsive, but that's gonna raise the price of your tire by about $50 apiece and take the smoothness out of your ride.

That cottage in the forest leaks and has bugs. Mold? Don't get me started.

Y'all need to look into direct primary care. It's doctors, but on a subscription model. Not sure about hospitals yet, but if you can set aside a few grand, a lot of hospitals have a cash payment option for people who don't buy insurance

See, I have no dishwasher. Double basin lets you wash/rinse. I really want a 3-compartment commercial kitchen sink with chemical dispensers and a floor drain, but my kitchen is only so big.

In case you don't know, that assembly weighs a few hundred pounds.

My employer lists reasonable ranges - but if you're an internal applicant you are limited to 10% over your current pay, for "equity within the department." This is at a university. On the one hand, I have seen new hires start (elsewhere) for more than I started at, and hated it. On the other hand, I need the money.

Make your own burritos. Charge yourself extra for guac.

The car switches. Hook them up to something that whirrs like a turbine spinning up.

I have the good fortune to belong to myself at work. I stay up at night because the housework doesn't' do itself.

The episodes are short, well-written, and a bit profound. You'll like it.

How on Earth did you get her to hold still that long? Mine barely suffers the barrette.

Not sure if the Ents are Americans, since Treebeard was C. S. Lewis.

Currently? Probably not. History records a few, though, and they were spared at Nurenburg.

But then, they are themselves the crappy minority in a moderate whole.

Do we measure genocide by scale, or by intent?

If I were a betting man, I'd bet $3.50 that the tires are balding.

I've seen the same toilets in Italian schools...but they were in stalls. So probably.

Change? No, but you get to know it better.

Knights of the Oblong Table had a pig. More Robin Hood than epic fantasy, though.

What happens when borders change?

The mistake is to believe that the free market is one's whole life. I like my capitalism for business', but I like my charity, too.

But what is a state if it can't control its borders?

Still. If I ever go to Antarctica, it'll probably be on accident.

My doddler has taken to doing things like standing on her books (mom's pet peeve) and saying, "No? No? No?"

That depends on whether or not you're using 'moot' correctly.

Borders mark the ends of governments' authority. Pretty important.

Keeps the sun off. Very important, especially at higher altitudes.

My daughter. It's been a few years now, so I don't always cry.
