Send a note to the admins suggesting yourself as a new mod to fill out the ranks and then resurrect The Thread :twisted:

Received the shirt, thanks. It's a tad more pink than I expected but it's fine.

You're welcome to post whatever you want as long as we both maintain the understanding that you'll always be wrong. :D

At least all the moderators here started out 100% dick, so all movement on that continuum will be lateral.

Most importantly, if you all don't think the mods are fairly or accurately treating things, call us on it. Either in public or via PM. We'll always try to explain our actions and recognize that we too can be wrong.

Yep, it is hot today. 117 at 5:30pm by my place. Car's exterior temperature gauge does not go past 113.

Real feel is less than the actual temp? I'd take that kind of weather for a bit! It's been in the mid to high 90s all month, but the humidity has made it consistently feel well over 100.

Was driving home from Glendale, noticed that once I merged on freeway in spirited way... temperature gauge went above half....


Got home, radiator cap broke. All of those pieces meant to be together.


Meh.

We're facing a weekend of highs in the mid 80's and lows of 70. The struggle continues to be real.
