    Speaking of EPA performance killing, the 2017 KTM dual sport bikes were delayed this year because they came with 2 switchable fuel maps and non brake based traction control. To get them to the dealers they had to remove all of that functionality. The rest of the world gets more bike for the same money because EPA.

    You can get some good utility out of $50 if you try.

    Might do a longer pair of jumper cables! I do need a set of pry tools for plastic dash pieces.

    My son made out like a bandit on the recall. Early lease termination walk away option on a deal they were upside down on from rolling a Touareg into the TDI wagon. The car will be re-coded and likely resold quickly as it has all the other pre-reqs. Older models require more extensive retrofit. He said they'll sit in a US Port until something is done with them.

    Default Thumbs down for Jesus?

    I don't remember if I've mentioned this yet, but my Pandora account has been giving me grief lately.
    I have a channel for the band Stoned Jesus, which is like a stoner metal band. Because it has "Jesus" in the name, I keep getting Jesus music. Now, I like Jesus, but the songs people write about him are all the same, and overall terrible. Pandora puts me in an awkward position by having me "thumbs down" Jesus over and over. It's not every day either, but when it does happen, it happens several times in a day. Work on your algorithm Pandora!

    Throw down on some -43° chill factor this morning.

    Been trying to play tune with crunchy snow. Different crunchy sound depending on snow depth.

    Probably good thing it's dark and no one can see me jumping around in the yard.

    Balmy -19 this a.m. Up side it culls the homeless. OOPS travelers down.

    Hopefully this weeks cold snap sends some packing west.
