I get a kick out of hearing stories about creepy creatures that people have reported seeing. Why do they always have red, glowing eyes? It's not like flashbulb "redeye." The glow comes from within. I'm sure that scientists would love to examine one of these creatures and find out why their eyes are glowing.

And another thing - Why do UFOs have so many lights? Reports often say these ships had lights all over them, sometimes white and sometimes different colors. On earth, planes and boats use minimal lighting, so why do alien spacecraft need so many lights?

In my humble opinion, people are too quick to believe nonsense, but they are skeptical of scientifically proven facts. If another intelligent species ever evolves on earth after we're gone, I hope they are more intelligent.

I removed the shifter from the column and moved it to the floor after I had to crawl under the car on a cold wet day to un-jam the linkage. Even with a bench seat ( I do like these) it made shifting easier.
I miss small local companies. I miss the simple automobile engines before the computer age. I miss scanning newspapers and mail inserts for paper coupons. I miss having a grocery budget that was realistic, not a week's wages. I miss quiet restaurants where everyone wore decent clothes and removed their hats when they sat. I miss manners, courtesy and consideration.
