Now WHAT could go wrong there??

Come on Google. How does searching "get into lifted truck" lead to this as an ad?

The next one was just as odd. Apparently Google now believes me to be a curvy woman with need of dietary supplements.

Mine are still mostly Ukrainian women, Asian women and 40+ women dating sites. I guess Google thinks I'm in desperate need of a woman?

A few days after Tcoat posted that video of Greta Van Fleet, they showed up here. Now even my favorite morning radio talk show is playing them as their bumper music today.

looks like google is trying to tell "curvy" girls that the best way to get into a lifted truck is to lose some weight.

I spammed your local radio stations asking them to play it. Why should I suffer alone?

Well folks, I may not have to venture out of my garage anyway. We are still snowed in, no school, daughter is home sick, son-in-law is providing day care, mrs humfrz says she is feeling better (maybe she just doesn't want to get into the car, as I attempt to back out up the driveway?)

CEL is gone this morning. I'll check again later on my lunch break.

Maybe it was a bad tank of gas? I went down to about a quarter tank and re-filled on Saturday, and I'm at about a half tank of that mix now.

"The weekend storminess officially dropped 11.4 inches of snow on the city, pushing its February total to 14.1 inches"


Wussies. We can get more than that from one overnight snowfall and they don't even call it a storm.


Ironically this year we have had almost no snow. Keep getting freezing rain though which in some ways is worse than snow.

Very possible. Be nice if it is that simple.
