I just ran up the street to the closest grocery store to get some fruit. It is the local Whole Foods AKA Whole Paycheck. The prices are not low but they do have good fruit. Virtually all the apples were from New Zealand? I have no problem buying fruit from the other side of the planet but it would sure seem to be cheaper to buy apples from the state of Washington.

The store is the only grocery store in the area and close to a very rich part of town. There are always lots of Milfs in there with their kids. One lady was dressed in the Earth Mother dress and had her little rug rat next to her. If I could take a photo and not get caught I would have. Her dress was in her butt crack. I am sure she would be mortified to know it was like that.

Son and I stopped at the grocery store this morning. Sad to report that there were NO MILFS shopping. Senior citizens and not-so-skinny gals wearing not enough clothing. ewwww

The ones I have a hard time with brings up the phrase "Like the skin on a sausage". Eww. I do NOT need to see someone like Rosie O dressed in more than skin tight clothing.

I did not read the entire story. Was is the posted speed limit along there? I presume he was speeding but a LOT. I hope he has good insurance to take care of the hurt Pickup passengers and the property damage.
Looks like possibly a 997 TT, hard to tell from the photos though.... But in that area I believe the speed limit is 45.... But to rip the engine out, I'd be he was doing well over that!

Nah, he probably just did a service and forgot to tighten the mounts!

A fair number of not-skinny women around here wear really, really tight fitting clothes. The shape of every fat bulge and roll are clear as can be. What on Earth are these women thinking?

I have never seen a really fat person in that store. Lots of hippies and earth mother organic types. Lots of the long sleeve & tie wearing Chesapeake Oil & Gas employees getting lunch, and then of course there is me. I never feel like I blend in there but I can't possible care less. They take my money and let me leave with good fruit.

looks like I'm getting off early today. Oldest had his wisdom teeth out a week ago. Ended up with a dry socket and still on meds. Decided I should drive him to the dentist and avoid a dui situation.
