May as well put in a big screen tv.

My favorite driver right now is 35 years old. No gps, let alone self driving. Still plenty safe; one of the first cars made with ABS, even before Ferrari had it. Drove it to work the last couple of days. More fun than Sherri's CL600 in my humble opinion.

SANTA ANA, Calif. -- A car slammed into the second floor of a building in Orange County, California, early Sunday morning. The incident unfolded in the 300 block of East 17th Street in Santa Ana, CBS Los Angeles reports.

The Orange County Fire Authority (OCFA) said the driver hit a center divider, catapulting the vehicle into the air. The Santa Ana Police Department said the car was traveling at a high rate of speed when it hit the median and flew into the building, which houses a dental practice.

Hershey’s Kisses were introduced in 1907, and named after the sound the machine makes when depositing them. More than 80 million Hershey’s Kisses are produced daily.

The first individually wrapped penny candy in America, Tootsie Rolls were invented in 1907 by an Austrian immigrant named Leo Hirschfeld. Hirschfeld named the candy after his daughter Clara, whose nickname was Tootsie.

The world's oldest active fire boat... still in service, and it was put in service 3 years before the Wright Brothers flight which was Dec. 17, 1903. Located in Buffalo, NY.
