I occasionally consider replacing my 28 year old set of Centennials with a new set. Last time I looked, maybe a year ago, seems like they were around $250 USD. I just looked again and they're now $560. Has the price increased this much due to inflation, etc.? Has the formula or...

This makes me want to go out and fire up the smokers!

Formula One racing's worldwide TV viewership and personal attendance is topped only by that of soccer. I expect if you included all of 'auto racing' or certainly all of 'motor sports', the numbers would be greater than soccer.

I expect the 'Red Bull Story' is the focus of countless MBA classes and dissertations, especially the marketing aspects. As a long time F1 fan, I was at first skeptical of their entry into the sport (most newcomers fail miserably and suffer huge financial losses). However, they quickly...

Also a batting aid for Houston Astros.

In the mining industry, it's MSHA, which has even more rules and more restrictions than OSHA. While working at a gold mine, I recall at least two instances where employees were fired for posting photos taken inside the mine site on social media. The company was absolutely paranoid about some...

Reminds me of the time my middle-school-age son and I got into building and modifying model rockets. We had the not-so-bright idea of omitting the parachute and filling the nose cone with black powder. The plan was that the engine charge intended to dislodge the nose cone and deploy the...

No TV! And I wish I could ban cell phones. Drives me mad to complete a run to look up and see my competitor on their phone.

I have attended some Oktoberfest events in small Wisconsin towns, and have to agree that accordion music can be a bit much. On the other hand, I've been blessed to see live performances by Percy Cardona (Mavericks) and Wayne Toups. Now when an accordion is played at that level, I can listen...

My dad had one very similar to this. He eventually traded up to a motor home.

That is only one of many things that occurred to me. I think we can just say that this entire situation represents a general lack of forethought, planning, anticipation, and most likely intelligence.

Head scratcher. If this is some new type of redneck competition, I'm guessing that it's not going to catch on.

Interrocitor!

White out snow conditions + rumble strips = driving by Braille. Been there, done that.

Agree completely. But constant 'hot/cold' cycle (once or twice per day on a regular basis) could certainly trigger microscopic cracking. Even if you couldn't see 'cracks', they could manifest themselves as a rough texture and cause the balls to become dull after a time. Personally, I wouldn't...

Blurry photo, but looks like Waylon Jennings.

And I'm far from an 'intellectual'
