Wow what a cool Dart! Wonder if it's a slanty with three-on-tree Always nice to see someone using something like that and not hiding it away I agree with Topside; you can almost guarantee the engaged, articulate and polite ones come from a two parent family. That structure is so important.

Sort of on the same topic of work; I have an Uncle that use to farm grapes for wine in South America. A VERY hard worker and disciplined man. When I was a kid and he'd visit us, he'd always feel the callouses on my hands lol. And I had them from mowing lawns, shoveling, and other hard work to earn money starting at about 12 years old. Now I know why he would feel my hands!

I hope thats a restored car being used as a summer toy and not a granny fresh original being driven year round by a kid, if its the latter keep an eye on the scrap yards, impound lots or for sale. Primo candidate to turn into a 2dr post. I also made the move from the city to a small country town, I don't like that everything closes by 8pm (even the bar!), no cabs, no food delivery - but the peace and quiet is second to none.

I agree with Topside; you can almost guarantee the engaged, articulate and polite ones come from a two parent family. That structure is so important. My wife was raised largely by her dad after her mom left when she was 4. She's a wonderful wife, mom, teacher, and person. My brother in law is raising my niece and nephew on his own since my sister passed 4 years ago. Both honor students, play multiple sports, both can play multiple musical instruments, both do volunteer work. One of my closest friends is raising his 8 year old son on his own, and has been since his son was an infant. The son is also an honor student, competes in boxing and Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, and is an extraordinarily polite and well mannered boy. But please, go on...

Definitely are great single parents out there. BUT, when we look at a large sample, the breakdown of the family and children from a single parent household have been shown to struggle greatly more than two parent households. Nobody can say "every single" anything. Things happen. Divorces, deaths, many sad events. It's tough so whenever possible a mom and dad will have a much better time raising kids if they have the help of one another. I'm sure no single parent would deny that some help would've been nice.

Nice car, hope the driver has other transportation for winter.
Remember similar distaste for Detroit proper 25 years ago, I (wrongly) always thought you'd leave back then.
One would think there would be decent industrial property available in Marysville/Romeo/Almont/New Haven and so on, and you're sure positioned better for those areas now.
Hope to see you at the Nats and buy a few things.
