    The app has a tipping function what should appear after the ride is complete. If you feel your driver was worthy, you can tip them at that point.


    Random thought: If you think life lacks variety, the next time you are at an airport just watch people go by. I had to wait for about an hour on my flight home yesterday and found it pretty entertaining. My favorite thing was playing a game in my head called, "Guess the next person to trip on the moving sidewalk because they are paying to much attention to their phone."

I’m thinking they’ll stick the 2.3 Turbo that is offered in the Mustang in it and who knows maybe they’ll bring the diesel state side.

    Any Youtube video with the words "Most Epic" in the title, is mostly an epic disappointment.
    The devil made me do it the first time.
    The second time I done it on my own.

    The only good thing about getting old is no longer having to worry about dying young.

    [Work Rant] I`m really sick of working on cars after guys that don`t understand when you`re done making a repair, the car shouldn`t look "Fixed", it should look like it was never broken.

    Perfection is in the details, but for the love of Pete so often it just seems like they just didn`t finish putting it back together after the job... [/Work Rant]

    Thanks. I always tell the guys I train in:

    Always strive to be better than the last guy,
    Nice to the next guy,
    and don`t ever, ever be THAT guy.

    With all due respect to Dirty Harry what is wrong with ketchup on a hot dog? It`s a stinkin` hot dog, not a Filet!!!!!
    It`s a barely edible piece of almost meat that is made from the stuff you would toss out if you were butchering your own steer. What culinary faux pas can you possibly be committing by putting ketchup (or even catsup)on it? Hot dog snobs...SHEESH!

    Barely edible...I wouldn`t even grant it that much, haven`t had one in over 30 years.

    Ketchup...yuck, never understood the appeal. But then I don`t use any condiments on, well....anything that I can think of. No Ketchup, mustard, no cocktail sauce on shrimp, hardly ever even use a salad dressing (well, *maybe* once/twice annually). OK, I do use syrup on my weekly waffle.

    Holy cow, I thought I was the only freak that didn`t use mayo, mustard, salad dressing. Etc. I always get comments or looks whe I eat salad, because I don`t use dressing. I want to taste the food, not some condiment. Koegels viennas are the only hot dogs I`ll eat.

    or






















    Hot sauce goes great on hot dogs as well

    As far as salads, the must be drowned in dressing......
