Why do some people think that a HUGE rear wing looks cool on their car?
If they only used it for track days I might agree. But I suspect most don’t know how ridiculous it actually looks. Personal style I suppose.

Here’s the analog version of those awful microfont lengthy Privacy Policy documents we never read. They make sure the wall mounted version is equally impossible to read.

Interesting to see a band across the east valley (looking at Phoenix SanTan Mountains) early in the morning. In about half an hour than band had grown in height. Maybe an ozone layer as we have a high pollution alert day today I believe.

Saw this signage in Phoenix Sky Harbor Airport PHX waiting to get on the Sky Train. Which sign should you believe? The uppermost ones or the vertical ones? They contradict each other. Human factors designed needed!

The recent monsoon rains have tamarisk blossoms out. They are only about 8-10mm in diameter. But the hummingbirds and honey bees are finding them. It’s beautiful to see.

Triple Tow! I have no idea how flat towing two cars in tandem can be legal. It just seems to be insanely dangerous. I-10 east heading towards Tucson. Maybe Arizona DOT can weigh in?

I like Spirit Airlines’ sense of humor around their out-of-order check-in kiosks.

BWI has an art display that celebrates America’s earliest civil rights leaders. I found this quilt pretty amazing. It celebrates Frederick Douglass and more.

United Airlines is have some system wide tech issue that is keeping flight plans from being downloaded by the pilots. Our pilot came into the boarding area to fully explain the situation, details, and next steps. That was just amazing. I’ve never seen that level of customer service before.

Hey Waymo, you might want to update this vehicle’s SW. A Chandler AZ 3 lane blvd was reduced to 2 lanes for paving. The Waymo vehicle drove up the closed lanes stopping behind the sealant spraying truck. It seemed baffled and put on its hazard lights. Oops!

This morning was the second time I’ve seen this deer with half a rack of antlers. He has been hanging out in the neighborhood. He also walks with a rear leg limp. I suspect he has a survival story to tell.

I’m quite surprised to see that Yellow Pages hard copy books still exist in 2025. It makes me wonder who is flipping through them looking for a vendor and which vendors pay to advertise in them. They feel like archaic relics of the past.

Some blooming flowers to brighten your day. I am perpetually grateful to the homeowners who take such care and bring these beautiful sidewalk gardens to the world. Thank you!
