Semi-retired environmental science practitioner, traveler and photographer, vintage sports car owner and vintage racing photographer, former resident of CA, AK, and OR, now on the island of NM. Also too, considered vermin by some. 100% anti Trump.
Introduce yourself with 5 cars you’ve owned:

1963 Volkswagen Beetle
1971 Saab 96
1976 Saab 99ems
1949 Ford F-2 stakebed
1954 Austin-Healey 100

I could easily add several more.

I know it’s not Portugal, but you California guys should dine at LaSalette in Sonoma, right off the plaza. I’ve eaten there many times when I was in the area shooting photos at the Raceway and never had a bad meal.

Good suggestion. You can always retreat to “How many goals do you think Messi scores against SDFC in the final?” Later in the day.

No. The Great Pendejo Naranjo in Washington DC!

Yeah, but way better known nationally than the other 5 and also way more respected. Sen Murkowski and other GOPers are coming out with critical comments. Another tempest in a teapot from the Pendejo Naranjo.

I think because Kelly is a retired military senior officer, he presumably can be recalled to active duty, then court martial for his action (statement). In practice, I don’t think the government has pursued officers for their actions, let alone statements, made after their retirements (eg Flynn).

They’re so small, they make a Miata look big. As the owner of one, they are terribly fun to drive and you get many smiles and waves. I swear there are elves in some forest still making them based on how many still survive and turn up for sale.

These were the cheapest little cars Austin could make. Besides the non-retracting headlights and no boot lid, there also were no exterior door handles and a front bumper was an optional extra. Even if you make all the modifications Peter Egan suggested, the body aerodynamics get hairy above 80mph.
