  I am not a lawyer, much to the chagrin of my dear grandmother. However, I come before you today to make an argument that should be so plain, so obvious, and so transparent to even the most tone deaf of music appreciators that I shouldn’t even have to make it. But, for some reason, my client…

In his article, “A Message To All My Childless Readers,” my dear brother says the following: “It’s possible that having a daughter is wonderful. It’s also possible that owning a Harley-Davidson Road Glide is wonderful. But I don’t know, because I don’t have either. So I won’t say. “ I will. Having a daughter is wonderful.

   NO VIDEO TOO MANY WORDS Eff you, Greg Barker. In response to what I believe to be the best car review in a magazine so far this year, that being my brother’s tour de force in Road and Track about the Huracan, you sound like effing Emperor Joseph II complaining about Mozart.  Eff you and your…

Well, that escalated quickly. Tiger Woods—you remember him, he used to be the best golfer in the universe—shot a combined sixteen-over par in the first two rounds of the U.S. Open on Thursday and Friday. It was his worst 36-hole score in his professional career. He missed the cut by roughly…a billion shots. And do…

It’s nothing short of vile or disgusting how gleefully the Left has jumped on this Charleston tragedy as an opportunity to advance their agenda. It’s also nothing short of vile or disgusting how the Right has responded to the death of nine people by rabidly and blindly shouting “2ND AMENDMENT” at the top of their…

It’s official: LeBron James is a four-time NBA Finals loser. In all honesty, I couldn’t care less—my opinions about rooting for professional sports teams are pretty well-documented. But James, himself, is compelling in many ways. One of them happens to be the consistent comparison of James to one Michael Jeffrey Jordan. The comparisons are inevitable, of course….

On June 13th, 2012, I was featured as a guest writer at The Truth About Cars for the first time, writing about my Boss 302 purchase experience. The Boss remains a fixture in my life and my garage, but nearly everything else around it has changed.

Today at the local library, they had “Heroes Day” as part of their Summer Reading Program. My mother-in-law took my kids over to meet a police officer, and they were thrilled to have to opportunity to sit in a police car. It would never occur to either of them to be wary or afraid of…

I spent a significant amount of time this week editing video and piecing together a write-up of my experiences at the Ford ST Octane Academy over the weekend for TTAC. I did all this despite knowing that it would probably receive less than ten comments and be read by virtually nobody. What I’ve learned in…

The political season has begun again, less than a year after the country shouted a resounding and unified “Hell, no!” to Barack Obama in the midterm elections. In the Democratic corner, weighing in at “Political Lightweight With Few Accomplishments,” is Hillary Rodham Clinton, presumptive nominee with a checkered past. Seemingly unbeatable, it appears that all…
