I think mostly the size. Cigarette boats are more suited for offshore racing and have much deeper hulls than typical speed boats.
They also are long to help with stability, but also because they originally used them to smuggle booze from the Caribbean during prohibition.
Likely botoxed into that expression forever.
Yup we live in one of those New England beach towns. We’re here to take care of my elderly Father in law and will likely be selling our house when he’s gone.
But somehow the taxes are around half what my Mom is paying in a bigger town no where near the coast.
Our town is split between old money mansions, and new money vacation homes. Then there’s a cluster of us full timers with kids who are usually scraping by.
Technically the first lies of his administration were all the emoluments clauses he broke taking all that money from foreign “guests” in his hotel for the inaugural parties.
But he started lying about the crown that afternoon, so it’s a close second.
Plus the bullshit congress did nothing to enforce the emoluments violations, so we barely heard anything about it through his term.
Can someone make a Timelapse split screen of the whole thing? Might be interesting to watch his face change, but only if it takes 1-2 minutes max, nobody needs to look at him any longer.
I suspect at least 34% of NASCAR fans are there for the crashes and fire though. Might be humanity’s ratio.
This may be a cynical take, but it would still be Trump on the top of the ticket, and the media would be immediately distracted from his debate failure. He would most likely come out ahead in the end.
His cheeks are always red because he’s always thinking about porn and blushing.
The nothing title gives it away fortunately.
Almost, private equity buys out companies by giving the owners big buyout cheques with debt that will be saddled on the new company.
So when they “buy Hoonigan for [undisclosed amount]” what they really did was go find a bank that would give them a billion dollar loan for the “value” of the brand they bought and then after buying the the brand, the loans go to the company they bought.
If the owners are smart, they take a cash buyout and bail as soon as possible. Ken Block died before any of that could happen, but others like Hert and Vinny bailed. I don’t follow them enough to know if they were stakeholders in Hoonigan, or what Scotto is up to, but I suspect they all got big cheques when that deal went through.
Then the private equity lets the now empty brand go bankrupt and guess who eats all the debt? Our retirement funds!
In the US, we’ve leveled off and possibly backtracked a bit with the sales of huge grilled trucks. The cybertruck isn’t going to help with pedestrian safety either.
