re: Thoughts on the C7 Corvette

Posted by Slip Screen on 11/19/25 at 8:11 am to
I had a C7 (base 3LT) and it was fun. The C7 zo6 or zr1 would be a great drive. The prices on the zr1 are steep. I now have the C8. Overall, the C8 is a better drive than a comparable C7 IMO.
$0 - probably 15 years ago I started cutting my own hair with clippers. Tight on the sides and back, blend in the top. Fairly easy with different length clipper attachments. I really started doing it to save time. Any decent barber ship I needed to be at before it opened (usually 7 AM). Otherwise, the wait was just too long. I'll never go back.
My dog gets the milk. He lives for it.
From elementary school, the Pledge of Allegiance is all I got.

Anyone have any experience with these watches?

I like him more with his dog. I take my dog as many places as it is allowed. I don't try to take it places where it's not. He (and his brother, RIP big fella) enjoy it. And honestly I have never had a person say anything about them (but again, I only take them to places where non-service dogs are allowed).

If you thought based on the left pic that she was not going to get much bigger with age (and certainly with children) and was going to have a hard time keeping it off (likely even if she exercised), then you whiffed on this. That was not hard to see. She may have actually let herself go so it happened quickly, but it was inevitable.

How do you trademark a phrase thats been in common public use for at least the past 20 years since the Kanye song?


It's not as simple as just seeking trademark the phrase for all uses. Many trademarks are common words or phrases - "Best Buy," "Apple," "Shell." She would have identified products or services the phrase will be used with. As someone said, if you want to brand your shovel with Gold Digger, you might be able to get a trademark that prevents others from selling shovels with that brand. Apple has trademarked "Apple" for all types of products.
Live anywhere your daily drive does not require you to get on I-45. It's the worst freeway in Houston (unless you consider 610 West by the Galleria a freeway) - and I mean the entire length from Galveston to Conroe is just brutal.

Got behind someone going 57 in the left lane of a 4 lane. Crazy. 70 is one thing, but 57 is dangerous.
If you are hiking solo remotely, not sure why you would not have a PLB or Satellite Messenger. Certainly not foolproof, particularly if something sudden happens. But I would want the chance to let it save me.

Yup - father in law died in in bed right in front of me and my wife. We all knew the end was coming but we did not necessarily expect to literally be beside him when he took his last breath.
