I was doing dishes yesterday and opened the cascade pod things for dishwasher and had a quick laugh. I mean they are divided into three sections, your protein, your veggie, and your fruit , hahahaha

I took my first uber last night to get my truck from the mechanic shop late at night since my neighbor flaked on taking me

it has been raining for days and I didn`t know if I should `tip` since its pre paid and was literally a mile or so (5.95 charge) so I bottled 3 ounces of optimum glass cleaner/protectant and gave it to the driver

he had some terrible visibility due to no action on the front glass. I really hope he uses it

My friend got a Lyft home from the airport the other day. It had been snowing, the Lyft driver had twitchy hands and slow reactions: ended up doing a 360 across 5 lanes on the highway and smoked a curb. Thankfully no injuries.

I asked my friend if he got the ride for free, or if he had to pay extra for the show; he said he just paid the normal fee so he could get out of the car...

Glad your friend wasn`t hurt, hope the Lyft driver loses his license forever.

The app has a tipping function what should appear after the ride is complete. If you feel your driver was worthy, you can tip them at that point.


Random thought: If you think life lacks variety, the next time you are at an airport just watch people go by. I had to wait for about an hour on my flight home yesterday and found it pretty entertaining. My favorite thing was playing a game in my head called, "Guess the next person to trip on the moving sidewalk because they are paying to much attention to their phone."

Are you thinking about getting one of these? Full size Raptor will get you 450 HP 3.5L Twin Turbo from the factory. It has yet to be determined or at least to my knowledge which power plant will be offered in the U.S. for the Ranger Raptor. Some have claimed the 2.7 Twin Turbo. That would be really cool. I’m thinking they’ll stick the 2.3 Turbo that is offered in the Mustang in it and who knows maybe they’ll bring the diesel state side.
 
[Work Rant] I`m really sick of working on cars after guys that don`t understand when you`re done making a repair, the car shouldn`t look "Fixed", it should look like it was never broken.

Perfection is in the details, but for the love of Pete so often it just seems like they just didn`t finish putting it back together after the job... [/Work Rant]

Thanks. I always tell the guys I train in:

Always strive to be better than the last guy,
Nice to the next guy,
and don`t ever, ever be THAT guy.
 
With all due respect to Dirty Harry what is wrong with ketchup on a hot dog? It`s a stinkin` hot dog, not a Filet!!!!!
It`s a barely edible piece of almost meat that is made from the stuff you would toss out if you were butchering your own steer. What culinary faux pas can you possibly be committing by putting ketchup (or even catsup)on it? Hot dog snobs...SHEESH!

Barely edible...I wouldn`t even grant it that much, haven`t had one in over 30 years.

Ketchup...yuck, never understood the appeal. But then I don`t use any condiments on, well....anything that I can think of. No Ketchup, mustard, no cocktail sauce on shrimp, hardly ever even use a salad dressing (well, *maybe* once/twice annually). OK, I do use syrup on my weekly waffle.

Holy cow, I thought I was the only freak that didn`t use mayo, mustard, salad dressing. Etc. I always get comments or looks whe I eat salad, because I don`t use dressing. I want to taste the food, not some condiment. Koegels viennas are the only hot dogs I`ll eat.
