Well, not that I need...

Well, not that I need to justify my choice for my dream truck, but to be fair I only drive 6,000 miles/year. So even at 13MPG City/17HWY it all averages out. Plus my wife's commuter car is a '98 Accord EX 4cyl. getting 19/28MPG. It should also be noted that in Phoenix, AZ in the Summer where it is 105-115 degrees the AC is running every moment the car is turned on.

Oh, and my truck hasn't been washed in 1.5 years, has no dead cows in the interior, and sure as shootin' no DVD player or anything of that sort. Golly, I'm so manly...

What was I saying about not feeling that I needed to justify my gas guzzling?

Cranking

Merlin used to crank. He’s not cranking any more.

This is an essay about family, priorities, and Shakey’s Pizza, and it’s probably the best thing he’s written. »

Scared Shitless

Merlin’s scared. You’re scared. Everybody is scared.

This is the video of Merlin’s keynote at Webstock 2011. The one where he cried. You should watch it. »
