Boring Wednesday

I'm on a big project that will use up most of the blogging time today, and there's really not much to read other than the one on the refurbed SWAT contraption. Seriously, an '81? You want to depend on a Frankencar from that awful period in American automotive history? Plus it looks like a Mad Max camera truck.

I guess you get what you pay for, Mr Norwood.

Update: Being an old-car guy, I did a little background on the truck. There's apparently no Cadillac engineering here, as the story would have it, under the armor it's a Dodge one-ton truck. The confusion probably came in because it was built by a company called Cadillac-Gage, which also made stuff like this and this and is now part of Textron.

  1. It sure would be nice to read something like this in The Courier

I encourage you to share your own views and experience with me and other readers. How you do that matters, and I'm committed to maintaining a place where readers and commenters can feel safe from adolescent BS. So here's the deal:

There are two kinds of anonymous comments: those by people who have a genuine fear of revenge from the dark side, and those from darksiders just hiding to avoid accountability. You may post comments anonymously, but I reserve the right to treat anonymous comments as found items that belong to me and do with them as I see fit.

If, on the other hand, you're willing to stand by your convictions and post under your own name or a regular handle, your comments belong to you, and I'll edit them only on egregious violations of respect for others.

If this doesn't work for you, I'm sure you'll be happier somewhere else.
