See you my friends

I have enjoyed everything that I have learned here

 

[gophert]

conditions down here are not half as bad the news makes it to appear.

That is certainly a vague endorsement. Does your "half as bad" comment mean actual conditions are half-way between how the press reports them and acceptable. Or half-way between what the media reports and 5-star luxury accommodations?

 

[schmitt trigger]

My bad, the conditions are only 42.87% worse than reported. Is this accurate enough?

You know very well what I meant. That “half as bad” is a figure of speech, not an actual value.

Take my post as casual information only, I am not making political statements here.

 

[gophert]

Still don't know if you are saying conditions are unacceptable or acceptable.

I enjoyed the soft yet sporty ride on my Mercedes SUV until I hit a little pothole in Toronto . creating a small bulge in my speed-rated Pirelli's Scorpion Zero A's but they were getting old so I picked up 4 new ones for $899 Cdn. Where I was raised in Winnipeg, pothole capital of Canada (I think) are like Belgium. With freeze cycles they must fill 100 thousand potholes every spring. New Zealand North had amazing roads. Wisconsin always had beautiful quiet highways with reflective stripes on the edges. US border is a breeze. and going into Mexico from San Diego was just one look and they wave you on as a solder nearby has a machine gun. But coming back , bring dinner or buy from the hawkers as you wait in line for 3 hrs to get back or look online for the best wait times. Jamaica central winding roads thru the jungle was a blast this year. But I think our next trip this fall
will be London ,, Turkey, Georgia, Armenia.

I love the bit about the nearby "solder" with a machine gun. The imagination reels...

Umm, ... ah, well, ok. If you want to call a raised sports car an SUV, that's on you. If you want to complain that 40-series tires can't handle a pothole, I don't think anyone with an engineering degree will take the time to listen.
