Yep, in extreme moderation. I've also been able to have the occasional margarita when we make a rare trip to my favorite mexican place.

There's a brewery in New Glarus WI that I want to hit this fall. They have what sounds like an interesting range of beers and ales:

New Glarus Brewing Company

I especially want to try the Raspberry Tart and the Belgian Red; it's supposed to be almost wine-like.

Mebbe we'll make a Wisconsin Fall Colors run one weekend soon and stop by there and load up the trunk of the S.

I was looking on eBay for a Children's alarm clock, when I came across this:

Spinning Disk Brake Alarm Clock



Someone buy this! I need to see it in action!

Do you hate your local dealership? Check out this thread: https://www.s2ki.com/forums/index.php?showt...0&#entry6206045

This guy lives near me and we've been PMing back and forth. This is what happened to him at one of the two Honda dealerships in our area. I've never been to that one and won't be giving them a try. He will be trying the other one that I go to though, Robertsons Palmdale Honda.

Do we have any statisticians on board?

I want to know what are the odds of my brother being rear-ended again while stopped at a traffic light. We just purchased a new (used) Accord after the last one got totaled 20 days ago. I'm talking still had paper tags on it. The truck driver (yes, again by a truck) said he just looked down for a minute. Again, thank God he wasn't hurt and I know we take our chances every time we get behind the wheel, but I ask you, what are the odds?

So sorry to hear, Granny.

We need to send you a FOUR leaf clover, a horseshoe, a rabbit's foot and a few other items to bring you some good luck.

After a while, you just shrug your shoulders, shake your head, and chuckle, Lainey but I'll take all of the above.
