Someone wasn't thinking on this sign...

Magical night be it in the city or away for the Solar storm that hit. Coworker said we would wake up to killer plants. ?

Bad news and false news seems to travel fast. I have to carefully verify and consider everything any more. Looks like it means business...

That looks great. They are doing better and better in the USA

Congrats to David on the new Kia EV!. Thinking of going electric with the next car myself. Chris 40 years since I graduated high school!

Rivian? Value? That's hilarious.?

That's actually a horrible comparison. Any auto review by MSN is crap. "here's the spec sheet" is about all they give you.

Some 2024 anniversaries for Los Angeles CA - how time flies 40 years since the 1984 Summer Olympics - cities seem to have growth spurts - not all good, with spikes in home and apartment prices - and the same seemed to have happened in Atlanta after it hosted the 1996 Summer Olympics 30 years since the 1994 Northridge (MLK Day) earthquake - I believe it did a lot more damage than the Sylmar Feb. 9 1971 earthquake since Sylmar is at the very edge of the built-up part of the metro area while Northridge is more in the thick of things in the San Fernando Valley. In both quakes, high overpasses connecting freeways I-5 to CA-14 came down. In the 1994 quake, a critical raised portion of the fairly distant Santa Monica Freeway (I-10) came down,

You're just not getting a first cut in?!? I've been cutting for a month or more already. Fun fact, the smell of fresh cut grass is actually a sign of distress from the plant. If you smell the fresh cut grass that means too much was cut off and it's stressed. Try cutting it more often to not stress it out.

Got my first yard mowing of the season today...love the smell of fresh cut grass...thinking about planting a few new shrubberies this year..maybe some Arborvitae..I'm fond of Thuja Green Giants. Alas, got a lot of pollen in that air this week..Caddy was clean Sunday when I got back from vacay.

My baby Giant Sequoia showed up yesterday, finally. It got lost in transit for about five days.

CA made it impossible to use or enforce non-competes in the state. That is why Silicon Valley became so dynamic over the last 30 years or so. The abuse of non-competes is directly responsible for the crackdown and ban. Good riddance!

MSN just reposts stories they pay for, it is Marketwatch who wrote it, but it is the first I have seen showing the details of the two SUVs side by side. Not great but cool none the less to at least quickly compare the two. Kia gave me lots of value for what I got in my EV9 compared to Rivian. IMHO
