    Vanity license plates you have seen

    The "Castilian" was on a lift yesterday. I'll try to keep doing drive-bys. If I get some decent pics I'll post them in Classic Cars.

    Classic Cars

    My dream garage. With a house attached. Amazing what unlimited funding can do.

    the "Headline That Caught My Attention or the WTF" thread

    Sounds like they were sitting pretty. "The" famous jingle you say. When I picked up the first couple of cases, the guy behind the counter insisted we sing the jingle together. "C'mon you know it." Sadly we knew both of them. That one, and Schaefer City. Marketing. It's a thing.

    the "Headline That Caught My Attention or the WTF" thread

    Sadly, it's just marketing. All those classic brands like Rheingold, Schmidt's, Piels, Ballentine etc. were always around. They just weren't in the public consciousness. My friend who moved to PA liked Schaefer. He was able to get it locally for a while, but eventually his distributor stopped...

    Meadowbrook Drawbridge Dogfish Report

    Since the RR strike was farking up traffic, I elected to take the day off and accept an invite from my friend to waste a day washing bait. We initially set up on the south side of the draw, and I promptly hooked up a world-class Dogfish. A little while later my friend did the same. I suggested...

    They're certainly my favorite. Did you know there's only three actual manufacturers of batteries. East Penn is one of them. Deka is their house brand. Most battery brands people swear by, like Interstate (or West Marine :rolleyes:) are just rebrands of one of the three makers.

    I doubt many people will shed a tear for the LIRR workers after all the mayhem they've caused.

    Who writes this stuff? https://www.sailingscuttlebutt.com/2026/05/18/west-marine-files-for-bankruptcy/ East Penn Manufacturing isn't the fishing reel company. They're a battery manufacturer. Doesn't anyone do any homework anymore? Ah, what should you expect from a bunch of blow boaters. :(

    Yeah, you know, when you're trying to navigate a strange hotel room in the dark and walk into the corner of the bed.

    You know where this leads, right? If you ride the Airtrain, you know there's not a soul on the thing that isn't a passenger. Pretty soon, and sooner rather than later, the LIRR employees will go the way of the toll collectors.

    Been hearing this lie for over forty years. Still waiting to see the world end as predicted. Actually, still waiting to see ANY of the dire consequences because we didn't "do something right now!" Meanwhile, hearing the kvetching about the price of oil, while ignoring what the Green Agenda...

    good stuff on netflix

    Never read it. But I do suspect the movie was only loosely based on the story. I'm not a fan either, but the guy has been quite successful.
