    All I did was turn a little too sharp leaving a church driveway so my back tire went off the curb a little bit the tire apparently said nope. So now I've got my summer tires back on and it's supposed to snow up to over 2 feet this weekend. Guess I'm not going anywhere.

    Side walls...

    Sorry for your accident that shouldn't have occurred if the side walls were better made.

    I went to buy new tires years ago. I was at Sam's Club and I had a lot of tires I could look at by myself. In the front by the register were some Good Year tires like the ones I had.

    I had looked at a bunch of others before looking at the stacks by the register. I put my hands on them too and thought...WTH? the side wall was like an 1/8" thick! Seriously.

    The cashier came out and we talked a bit. I asked why are they ( good year ) making tires with 1/8" sidewalls now for. He said they were going back to Good Year. They thought the same thing...Ridiculously dangerous! I'll never buy Good Year ever again.

    Most people just listen to music and watch movies. I EXPERIENCE them.

    Am I in Manhattan? Or Another Sequel to ‘Blade Runner’?

    (vvvv Hotel Edison was the most interesting thing in the story vvvv)

    Scott Geres is the general manager of the Edison Hotel, a Jazz Age showpiece that opened in 1931, when Thomas Edison himself turned on the 26-story building’s lights. Pixelated models’ faces projected from Times Square flood many of its 810 rooms, including the Presidential Suite, where Aaron Judge, the New York Yankees right fielder, spent the 2018 season.

    For the last year, Mr. Geres has been one of the few people at the Edison.

    “For the first month I didn’t leave the building,” said Mr. Geres, 48, who walks up to 25,000 steps a day checking for pipe leaks and fire hazards. “There used to be 5,000 people in this building on a Saturday night. Now it’s just me and one other person on my team.”

    Mr. Geres said his job is to keep the Edison’s lights flickering behind the plywood shielding windows on the Rum Bar and street-side restaurants. The 700-room Paramount hotel, across West 47th Street, however, is “dark dark,” he said, like so many buildings in Midtown.

    Are these are older tires that spend most of the year in storage?
    Time does eat away at stuff.
    I hate low profile tires. They go flat if you look at them wrong.
    They might look cool and all, but a pothole will eat them for lunch.

    ^^^ wow.


    Meanwhile, in northern New England -- Mud Season 2021 has arrived in style.
    We had a neighbor get stuck on the hill last night -- her VW Jetta wagon Sportwagen was frame deep in the mud and had to be winched out. The worst of the ruts are 8 to 12 inches deep; worst I've seen here since we got here (2014, in terms of mud season).

    ...

    Granite curbing?

    It's nearly ubiquitous in New England (concrete doesn't hold up well here, and asphalt lasts until the first plowing of the winter) Granite curbs are notorious here for eating tires, all year 'round.

    It's also pretty adept at eating alloy wheels (and not too friendly for steelies, either).
