The side bolsters are what bother my hips. It's better if I take my wallet out of my back pocket, but a long (1hr+) ride still leaves me sore.

...but did you remember where you were taking both of them?
I did a tear-down and reinstall of our front door smart deadbolt lock on Friday afternoon, which was enough standing/labor to put me into cramping pain Friday night into Saturday. My Apple Watch's exercise tracker reported that I was walking/standing for at least a minute for 24 hours straight trying to walk the cramps out!

I just saw a mid-late 1990's Trans Am with *historic* NY State license plates on it! Geez, am I getting old.....

Remember the ones with the eagle on the hood? Late '70s?

Yes. One of the well-off farmers in our town bought one as a 16th birthday gift for his punk son.
Eastbound and down, loaded up and trucking. We're gonna do what they say can't be done. We've got a long way to go, and a short time to get there. I'm east bound, just watch ol' Bandit run.....

On our way north to visit my mom's side of the family, we always stopped at Safeway in Yreka, CA. Last place we could buy Uncle Larry a couple of cases of Coors. Even then (14?), I couldn't stand the stuff. But Uncle Larry was always ecstatic, and took us fishing, so . . .

Not an eagle, but a Phoenix. Reborn from fire, ergo a Firebird.

"Lost to time is the name of the man that first referred to the graphic as a “Screaming Chicken.” The nickname came quickly. By the late 1970s, even Car and Driver was using the label. No doubt derogatory, over time the epithet has become one of endearment, although the brand’s hardest purists still hate it."
