The '70 Eldo is one of the most perfect designs to ever have been built, so it's no real surprise that AI fails to improve it...though I wonder where it got the idea for the reverse-leaning back window that looks like an old Mercury...

Bill preparation is the least enjoyable part of my jobs, but the results are worth it.

Midnight Rider is a song I always kinda liked, though I really didn't have much use for the performers.

Clause copy-and-paste from dictionary definitions seems to be becoming a theme here.

"Back when I was young, such-and-such was better..." is a refrain common to many old geezers.

"Dentist" strikes fear into the hearts of many a brave man.

I always thought it would be kinda cool to work a recognizable Chevy truck nose back into the design, and cut the bubble top down into a wrap-around windshield/side window setup.

Brushing one's hair at an advanced age can be a risky endeavor, leaving most of one's hair on the brush.

"Tipe" either is a word or isn't a word, depending on which internet source you prefer to consult.

There are those of us who've never had a problem with the stuff...so far.
