RE: You Get Less for Murder - Now Isn't that Frozen Bananas? ššš
Happy belated anniversary to you both! It sounds like you have a wonderful, balanced marriage. So many couples forget they're supposed to be on the same team as the years go by and begin to take each other

RE: Almost Done?
So bittersweet. Even though it's been hot here this week we have some very strong end-of-summer vibes going on. A few of the trees have almost completely shed their leavesāaccelerated by the drought. It

Yep, the scissor doors supposedly make it easier to open them when pulled to the curb (require less room). I guess the company also studied how the elderly and disabled enter vehicles and determined these

With any luck I'll be back to Austin in November for the Shareholder Meeting and I'll try it too. They had a few Model Y's operating on the Robotaxi network when I was there last year but it was nearly

Yes, it's just a two-seater and the pricing is 2-3x cheaper than Uber/Lyft. Autonomous taxis take a minute to get used to. I rode in a Waymo in Austin and it was actually very relaxing and comfortable

Yes, you just have to download the Robotaxi app. That's great timing on your part. There should be several hundred of these released to the network by October. They do have seatbelts since you're essentially

Oh thanks for pointing that out! I had it there at one time but it must've gotten deleted at some point. I'll be sure to get that added. I'm open to any other suggestions!

Nothing gives me the chills more than thinking about the Mandela Effect. There are some examples of things that I clearly remember are different from the history we can find about them now. I've heard

Thank you! It's a little anxiety-inducing to release something that you've put so much time and effort into. At a certain point you just have to tell yourself whatever will be, will be. I know it's an

It's SO small. I found it's legible in just the right kind of light. Marketing has never been fun for me until this particular book. I've been running a two week campaign on my other social media pages
