Back in the 70s, that became the definition of the car name “Fiat” They were sporty, highly appealing little cars. A lot of consumers found out that unless you happened to be a mechanic, they were a poor choice for the American way of driving.

Well Howdy! Bruisy, lumpy here. Why is it when grown ups crash and burn it seems to take longer to snap back than it did when we were kids? Rhetorical question. Ran across an article this week which said that “aging” officially begins at 27. So a person becomes mature around 19, enjoys a few [...]
First off I should say that I’m okay, in a hurty sort of way. This morning as I was completing my morning ablutions, rising out of the tub, I lost my balance some way and down I went! There was a wall there to break my fall, so my forehead slammed into it. My [...]
I used to work for a company with a division in Phoenix. The bosses were always jetting off to the great Southwest. One time, one brought me back a little cactus- the kind they sell in the airport gift shop. And we haven’t killed it! Little cactus fuzzball is now tall, spindly and at least [...]
