    Would you ever put one in? I remember when my aunt bought her first house (which was built in either 1974 or 1975), it did not have a dishwasher; Despite not having a dishwasher, the house did have central air and an in-ground swimming pool. One of the first items on my aunt's list was to install a dishwasher, and this was done fairly quickly after closing; My aunt's former husband thought she was crazy for replacing "cabinet space" with a dishwasher, and argument that he quickly lost!

    That would be a deal breaker for me, though I know a guy in Hong Kong who has a housekeeper and no dishwasher...

    There's an episode of King of the Hill where Hank gets mad at a local dealership for tricking him into paying sticker for his wife's new convertible, and unfortunately these extremist kids from a local college blow up half the dealer's inventory the same night Hank was putting protest flyers on the cars...

    My favorite key enhancer; It came from a 1958 Rolls-Royce Silver Cloud!

    The local stealership is good for a few things; I went there to pickup a super-cheap screw for my GassHole and for the first time ever found a TACOMA keychain!

    And then this one was a present from my cousin’s mother-in-law of all people when I graduated from community college; She found it online and I am still not entirely sure how she did...

    Look closely...

    It’s a central air-conditioner!

    I have 3 different key sets, 1 for the truck, 1 for the car, and 1 for the house/garage.

    I've never been to Europe before, and after a 1-year hiatus my mom's side of the family has decided to have the annual family reunion in Ireland. The two most obvious must-sees for me are the Guinness factory and the Blarney stone (I will not kiss it); The trip will in be in late July-early August, and will last about two weeks; Has anybody been to Ireland, and if so, where do you recommend I go?

    Another goal of mine is to devote at least one entire day to barhopping!

    P.S. My dad generally rents from National, and I've just discovered that National rents what appear to be stick shift Land Cruiser Prados in Ireland; Currently pestering my dad to rent something that falls into the following three categories...

    • Manual Transmission
    • 4-wheel drive
    • Toyota pickup or SUV!

    My uncle has begun sanding down the wheel skins, but he’s been super busy so he hasn’t had the time to do much else on them...

    @shakerhood

    My cousin, who has been to Ireland before, talked me out of renting a vehicle with a manual transmission; She said the roads in Ireland are particularly tricky and unpredictable for someone who's never driven there before.

    Probably a good idea to stick with her advice.
