was anyone else adversely affected like my wife and me XM 18

We've been groovin' to Yacht Rock for almost 2 mos in her car which has XM. Well, XM 18 is now the Barbara Streisand channel. This has really had a detrimental effect on the quality of our lives.

below were the good ol' days

Yeah... unless your "wife" is male and "her" name is Ed, Streisand is a problem. What we really need to know is why your AC is at 60. I hope you were just cooling the car down initially, because if that's how you cruise, you may need to get checked out.

BMW AC sucks in general. Sucked in my e90 328. Sucks in my M3. Sucks in my wife's X4.

Used to have a Lexus that shit got freezing...... Must be something with the EU and the type of coolant they use in reference to being a detriment to the environment.

Anyway, the F has a mind of its own (reading the manual isn't worth it imho), as the AC is clearly on with the windows down and vents on, at times, decided by the car. My guess is the car based it upon the air quality. Regardless of what it says, there was a time when the heater was controlled by a cable and a lever sliding from left to right (before I was born but I heard about it and have seen it before in the junnkyard). To me, simply adding a digital readout with knobs, it's still the same, and I do not add heat to a/c, except in the winter, which is for dehumidifying/defogging. If not adding heat makes a person too cold, best to check muscle mass if you're a guy.

anyway, thank goodness Dr. Hook is on youtube

Sweet! I think it's amazing what's musically there, when compared to current music. In a way I get it, why learn an instrument when an iPad / iPhone can simulate it better, well, it's just like driving a stick, it's slower than a dual clutch. But one shifts with a clutch, simply do it for oneself. Some of these tunes have 11+ chords and are far from simple

They're red. Are your eyes getting bad with your old age?

If they are red, you should probably join that other thread about cameras...

I'm gonna mail you both a plane ticket and a hotel key so you can get a room. Sheesh. Your foreplay reminds me of the movie 300.

I have AAA and haven't used it, thank you very much.

As far as the wheels go, Mrs. Shoei didn't seem to have an issue with them last night.

Nice proper use of your.

I can't tell if he's fucking with me or if it malicious. If it's malicious, you're basically setting me up to get raped. THANKS JT!
