    I'm holding out for the Mr Fusion Home Energy Reactor to power my flying car with random scraps of garbage.

    He waddles on down to the park and uses the fountain as a bidet.

    You would be very surprised at just how much I have seen this over the years. Some houses have 7 or 8 (sometimes more) like this and worse. Many don't even bother with any type of junction box or electrical tape at all.

    You're right, it was billions, but it looks like the stock rose back up 3.9% today. Still down by billions though.

    On Monday of this week, I was at a traffic light at a multi-lane intersection. To my right, there was a vintage Jaguar XKE at the head of the left-turn broken down with about 8 cars blocked behind it. Two men were standing at the rear of the car and I could smell smoke coming from the engine.

    I rolled the window down but stopped myself from asking:

    "Don't you have a second Jaguar for a spare?"

    This not the actual car but it looks a lot like it.

    There's some 'junk' in that bathing suit, but it's not in the trunk. I always think of Battle of the Network Stars when I think of Lynda Carter; I'm pretty sure the male viewership was much higher when she competed.

    I agree that the electric Ferrari is probably going to be a flop, but it’s not going to hurt them in the least.

    They are still the most exclusive/sought after major brand in the world.

    They have flopped before, and will do it again.

    But Ferrari is no Jaguar in this scenario.

    Not only is that electric Ferrari an ugly **** Ferrari, it’s an ugly car in itself.
