Apparently, advance info indicated anemic attendance forecasts, so kimmel and colbert felt obliged to advertise it.

GOOD GRIEF!!! Size 39 EEE? The soles look like they're made with tires!
And, no, the umbrella doesn't help, either...
See how the gentle bison lovingly snuggles the man as he lies on the ground.

I had a 70 GT when I was a senior in high school in 1978. 8 years old and the Wisconsin winters were tough on the Fords of that era. It had already been bondo’d and repainted and the floor was rotting out. It had a 351C, 4 speed and posi rear end. Man I had a lot of fun in that car…

Unless you are retired
On a day like this, my wife would probably be riding right behind me.
All joking aside might be a cool way to go across country/ long distances. Grades are less than roads so it’s prob easier biking and you prob get cool scenery
Passed a no kings gathering earlier. About 100 people at an intersection. What caught my attention was the fact no one, not a single person, was younger than 70 and there was nowhere to park in that area so they had to have been bussed in and dropped off. Someone yelled fuck trump and I laughed. Made grandma more unhinged and she kept going off which made me now point and laugh harder.
Are the rails decommissioned? If not is there a way to get an alert that a train is coming, other that the obvious ways like a horn or if the train is close enough the rails singing (if you can hear/ feel them on the bike.)
Skimmed from FB because I found it interesting.

In 1931 Miss America IX was one of the most spectacular racing boats ever built, a symbol of American engineering might and the relentless pursuit of speed. Designed and driven by the legendary Garfield “Gar” Wood, it was part of a dynasty of record-breaking hydroplanes that dominated international powerboat racing during the 1920s and early 1930s. Sleek, powerful, and beautifully crafted, Miss America IX embodied the daring spirit of the Golden Age of Speed.
At the heart of this aquatic beast were four massive Packard V-12 engines—aircraft-derived powerplants that together produced nearly 7,000 horsepower. Each engine displaced over 1,200 cubic inches, originally designed for military aviation, but tuned and synchronized for high-speed marine racing. The four engines were arranged in pairs, driving twin propellers through an intricate gearbox system. Managing such immense power was a feat in itself, requiring exceptional engineering precision and nerves of steel from the crew.
In 1931, Gar Wood piloted Miss America IX to victory at the Harmsworth Trophy, the most prestigious international powerboat race of the era, held on the Detroit River. Facing fierce British competition, Wood’s machine roared past rivals, clocking speeds over 100 miles per hour—an astounding figure for the time. The achievement not only cemented his personal legacy but also demonstrated the dominance of American technology in the realm of speedboat design.
The boat itself was built with a lightweight wooden hull, meticulously shaped to cut through the water with minimal resistance while maintaining stability at incredible velocity. The roar of its four Packard engines was said to be deafening, shaking the very air above the water as it thundered down the course. Each race was as much a test of endurance and courage as it was of engineering brilliance.
Today, Miss America IX stands as a historic icon of early 20th-century innovation and ambition. It represents a time when engineers and adventurers pushed the limits of what machines could do, using raw mechanical force, ingenuity, and sheer determination. Few vessels before or since have captured the drama, noise, and glory of speed on water quite like Gar Wood’s legendary Packard-powered masterpiece.

Wouln't they just demand that the trains pass them safely, like on the roads ????
