I have a tow truck coming tomorrow. All I have to do is take of the plates and leave the keys in the glove compartment, and mail in my title and donation form.
I had a moment of, "You want me to leave the car unlocked with the keys inside? What if someone steals it?!" Of course, then I realized that it would be somewhat difficult for anyone to steal a car that doesn't run.

The last car I donated was the '92 Tempo 5sp with 205,000 miles. It was perfectly drivable, but I literally couldn't give it away. I wonder how long it would have taken to get stolen if I left it someplace unlocked with the keys in it. It would probably still be there today.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
From that 100 things article--what happened to diving boards? And people don't delete stuff to make room from their hard drives any more? I feel like a dinosaur. I did that just the other day.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Shopping only during the day, Monday to Saturday.
The town where I grew up, stores were only open Thursday nights. And they weren't open on Sunday until I was out of high school, unless it was a drug store.
or better yet should I get a while cake and just faceplant into it?
Well, faceplant with mouth open, right?

From that 100 things article--what happened to diving boards?
Pools removed them due to liability/insurance issues.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
And people don't delete stuff to make room from their hard drives any more?
I think that was implying that in the future memory will be so cheap and plentiful that that won't be necessary. The diving boards I don't understand.

Really? I delete stuff all the time. The 320GB and 250GB drives in my computer are always running low on free space. The 1.5 TB drive is doing fine and the 1TB external drive is only half full though.
