There is literally an airbag in the seat. Just like there is an airbag in your steering wheel. If you look at the seat cover, you'll see a little tag right about at the driver's left shoulder. It says "SRS AIRBAG" on it. I guess they perforate the upholstery so that the thing can come out when it goes boom.

Found this on the Intertubes. Note the one marked "2."

It has been downright cold the last couple of mornings. No gradual shift so my circadian rhythms or whatever are all kinds of messed up. We went from sweltering on Sunday to freezing my giblets off. *sigh* I guess the rest of this week is going to be moderate / Fall like so that isn't so bad. I just want a chance to get used to it before it goes full Winter, ya know?

It is actually really late in 2018 (May 11-13), I don't ever remember there being a dragon in May...

Shrug, we'll see. I actually like the cooler april weather and I expect it will be more crowded in May. That is also mother's day weekend, not a huge deal, but not ideal.

In other news, I got Fios gigabit installed yesterday and holy crap it is fast as hell. Really helped for 30GB of updates Gran Turismo sport needed last night.

As long as Marsha Blackburn exists we'll never get anything like that here. It's throttled Comcast or nothing.

That's 2 then. I meant it from the standpoint that I would assume it would suck for the people who come down to escape cooler temperatures etc only to arrive for more of the same... It's never been bad for me except for the one time poor Jeff & I spent time in the rain by the fire.
