When will electric car owners start to be charged road use tax? Will it be on their electricity bills?

Also, this is a replacement after Amazon lost the initial item, so they sent the replacement through UPS.

Now obviously the item is of little importance. I bought a replacement from Target and if these arrive great if not oh well. Guess I'll be in for a story.

Improvising when the spring bar on the buckle goes flying...

Anyone recognize the logo?

Yes, technically correct. That is where I took the photo.

It also bares a strong resemblance to a certain watch brand logo, though admittedly the font is different.

Aha! I thought there would be something watch related, but I wasn't smart enough to figure out what!

Don't feel bad. At least you know the difference between bare and bear.

When I was in college I got to know this girl. We were walking and talking one evening and I started to sense we were both falling for each other. This "sense" was like fireworks going off in my head -- I was quietly going bonkers. As we were sitting we grew quiet and she then asked me: what are my intentions? In my young self doubt I said I didn't know, which was the wrong answer. That was the end of our relationship.

I bring it up now because it is still a good question. I've been thinking about it as I work in the yard. My intentions were certainly honorable, but I lacked confidence in myself to say so. I can see how a person needs both. In any case, "I don't know" was a pretty lame answer, lol.

Every time someone posts about a Pagani watch, my brain reads it as "Paganini," and I expect a violin solo to follow.

I'm glad I am not the only one! I will "one up the randomness" by adding that I always think of the line from The Hunt For Red October, "Pavarotti is a tenor, Paganini was a composer."

How would you like to have this staring at you from your wrist all day?

If it was an actual Konstantin Chaykin at that price point, I'd buy one for every day of the week.

It's halftime at the Wales/Denmark round of 16 Euro 2020 match. Denmark leads 1 - 0 on the basis of a goal by Kasper Dolberg.

Dolberg was plagued by bad news in recent times: He caught COVID-19 twice and had his €70,000 watch stolen.

So, the question is: Which is worse, catching COVID twice or having an €70,000 watch stolen?

I'd have to go with COVID. There's probably a higher statistical chance of losing your life from it than from having your watch stolen.
