Been reading that many houses have recently been falling out of escrow due to potential buyers being unable to obtain homeowner's insurance at anything approaching affordable, or can't obtain insurance at all. That was even before all this occurred. So, as a seller, it may soon come to pass...

Sure does. The investigation afterwards showed he was doing 124 mph (must be a "black box" in Teslas?) at the time of impact. Car basically disintegrated. Hard to believe that anyone in their right mind would do 124 mph on that particular road. Alcohol in system, but well below .08. A real...

A guy I went to high school with and played football with in high school (along with his wife) were killed a year or so ago when their Tesla Model S Plaid plowed into a tree on a curvy road. He and his wife were both in their early 50's, he had become a very well respected cardiologist in the...

Awesome story, thanks for sharing..... My Dad grew up in Montebello and was a lifelong Dodgers fan. We lived in Whittier until I was four, then moved up to the Central Valley. Its tough to be a Dodgers fan up here, 90% of the people are Giants fans. There was one station that would carry the...

I watch 50-100 Dodger games per year. Likely watched another 500+ games as my son was going through his own baseball journey. Last night, saw multiple things that I had never seen before. Baseball is funny that way, you can't just run out the clock. Kind of relieved its over, the last three...

The outcome was kind of expected given that the Dodgers were throwing Casparius, Knack and Honeywell. It was discouraging that Hudson and Honeywell were as awful as they were, they didn't even give us a chance. Hate to start having the Yankees get confident at the plate, but the thinness of the...

I agree, 2020 did suck (neutral site, no parade, short season). Maybe it only counts for half of a trophy. But it still belongs to the Dodgers. By the same logic, should it count the same when a wild card wins the World Series? If so, they are opening up Hall of Fame membership and will...

In 88, I was home from college and watched Game 1 with my Dad. We went nuts after Gibson hit his walk off. Shared the same experience with my 24 year old son 36 years later. This life doesn’t give us that many moments of pure joy, those were two of them in mine.

Dodgers really need to finish off the Mets today. If they beat Flaherty, the pitching situation would get real dicey going back to LA. Win today and everyone rests for the World Series is the best case scenario. Then bring on the Yankees for a classic old school battle.

Thanks for the info....What kind of sand tires did you run on your RS1? Mine came with a set of STU Razor Blaster Fronts and Sand Blaster Rears, both 28". You think I will be over-paddled with those? Did you used to run the RS1 in 4x or 2x?

Nice. I know that the chop has progressively gotten worse, and suspected it was due to the influx/explosion of side by sides, but had never really thought about WHY it was that way. You summed up the physics of it nicely. Our whole group has switched over to SxS from quads, so I imagine our...

Been riding various DS 650's since 2003. Have found that age, and the "side by side chop", have made quads more and more difficult to ride in Glamis. Tend to feel sore from head to toe in the morning. Making the switch to a Polaris RS1 this season, feeling kind of nervous about it. Not so...

I'm starting to get the impression that you don't care for the Dodgers.

Ah, I get it. Its either a BP game today or a BP game on Wednesday, because neither Yamamoto or Flaherty would be available yet. Guess they don't want to risk putting Knack out there. I would sure like to see at least one of these gas throwing young arms become a dependable starter.

I don't understand why they aren't starting Buehler. He pitched ok against the Padres, the defense deserted him. He's had five days rest?
