We usual ride in a 350 Ford Transit with a driver and 3 passengers. Today we had to shift to a Chevy van because the Transit won’t fit into the airport garage. We can get masks, gloves, sanitizers as needed in unlimited quantities. They take our temperatures every morning.
Today the HR folks asked us to take a survey on how we felt about the company. Hilarious that they asked a bunch of 70ish retirees if the company enabled our career goals or allowed us to “fulfill our best best potential both during and after work”. What a bunch of new age baloney.

I pictured an officer mounted riding his horse as fast as he could to catch the perps.

We kept losing ground to the point where by 1981 we bought land and built our own. Even with sweat equity it cost us $45k fora $30k house.

"After the responding officer activated emergency lights on their vehicle, the Tesla automatically began to accelerate, Turnbull said, even as those vehicles that were ahead of the Tesla on the highway moved out of the way.
"Nobody appeared to be in the car, but the vehicle sped up because the line was clear in front."
"The responding officer obtained radar readings on the vehicle, confirming that it had automatically accelerated to exactly 150 km/h."
I heard this in the middle of the night on my pillow radio. Like so much of the news, I had to hear it twice to be sure what it said. I still have those nightmares of a RCMP on a horse chasing a Tesla.
2014 Malibu 2LT, 2015 Cruze 2LT,
Was dropping off some fliers touting my little transport business to the Land Rover/Jaguar dealership yesterday afternoon. Didn’t get to see the Owner, GM or SM (which are the only people who can authorize me to do transports in my experience). So, I left them with the Exec Assistant (the person who greets you as you walk into the door). She willingly gave me management’s cell numbers. Follow up is key as I found the only way to jog their memory is to call them and let them know that they can hire a “mature and responsible” person to do their transports.
Walking back to my car, one of the sales people was doing a walk around on the Stinger. “You trading this?” Nope. Explained to him who I was and what I was doing. He was very interested in the Stinger. He sat in it. I lifted the hood. We talked about how much I liked it. He was probably in his mid-late 30s. He gave me his card and told me to let him know if I wanted to move up to a “Jag-u-ar” (his term).
I got in. Took off to a “zip-crunch”. I thought...”oh, s#!t, I just hit a new high buck car that’s going to raise my rates......REALLY HIGH”!
Looked in the rear view...either side of the car....straight ahead...not a car in sight. Now, I thought I ran over something that’s not going to be covered out of warranty.
None of that.....I have a phone holder/pocket on the outside of my briefcase. I guess, being distracted by the sales person, I didn’t put it all the way in the pocket. It dropped out as I was putting the briefcase in the passenger footwell. How I missed the phone dropping is something I can’t figure out. But, I guess I was just not paying enough attention.
Well, the drop would not have hurt it. But, driving over it certainly did. Screen cracked....AND....it would not boot up.
Apple store was relatively close to the nearest mall. Get there....CLOSED...By Appointment only. But, there was an Apple employee at the door who was waiting for people who had an appointment. So, it’s only open by appointment. They were all booked up until today. Trying to eek a little sympathy, I showed the employees the pieces of my iPhone 10. They all have their proverbial iPads on them. He looked up my account. “You’re the kind of customer we like. Looks like you have an iPad, a MacBook Pro, a Mac and your iPhone”. Looking at my iPhone, “we’re not going to be able to fix that.”
I knew that. He asked if I would be willing to take a refurbished iPhone. “I am”. He said since I was a long time Apple customer in the Apple ecosystem, they’d give me a trade in amount (good condition rating...WOW!) on my broken iPhone for an iPhone 11 (mine’s an 8). Couldn’t get it last night as they were all booked. But, have an appointment today to go pick it up.
This is one of the many reasons I like doing business with Apple.
Now if a dead man can win a horse race then maybe a Monty on a horse can catch a Tesla.

I recently posted the picture I took of the M8 speedometer hitting 115 while my son was driving it at Kentucky Speedway(without disclosing where it was taken), and asked him if I should turn my son in to the proper authorities.
Maybe his head will explode.

Automated driving is accumulating many murders, including a lady pedestrian in AZ last year I think it was (Google Uber Autonomous Driving).
Therefore: Deaths from Autonomous Driving (XXX and rising)/miles driven is > Deaths from @andres3 speeding/miles driven while speeding. And I'll wager huge sums of money that > (greater than) relationship in that equation will always be true for my lifetime.
Maybe time for some progressive penalties, too.

It's always strange to me when these safety groups ignore the real problem, drivers so reckless and negligent that they mow down pedestrians in the first place.
Pretty soon they are going to want you to pay for front bumper air bags so you can make your negligent driving like getting hit by pillows for the pedestrian.
Also if you take the picture with a cell phone turn off the location function because even if you post it on line that information can be retrieved.
