Today’s Commentary
* Words cannot describe how much I detest this auto start-stop “feature.” My F-150 has it, and it’s seemingly impossible to disable without giving up your trailer hitch, which I need. I won’t buy another vehicle that has it and makes it hard to disable. Period.
** One of the best books ever written, and includes the best passage ever written.
*** I’m not a huge crossword guy, but I love the NYT Mini. If I can finish it in under a minute, I take it as a good omen for the day.
