Hank Watson's Garage Hour - Cars, Trucks, Beers & Guns

No, it's not Dude Food, it's good tortillas versus crap fuel, plus corn, cane and calories, as well as the mailman's budget sticking its foot up the bureaucrats' exhaust port.  You can't keep down this much gearhead goodness - it's the second of May's Lost Garage Hours.  What else wasn't lost?  A PO FU to President Hair-sniff McBranden, some fine riffs (and whose are they?), a gearhead goodbye to classic testadura Fred Ward, Pothole Pete still wants to take away your car, and a not terribly massive black hole hiding in your back yard.

...More than candy: Zepplin, Korn, Vultures, Testament, Puny Human, STP, Zombie (s) and the Desert Sessions (off Hostus Maximus Justin Fort's #3 Hillclimb Mix).

These two episodes from May almost took a long walk off a short hard drive, but thanks to doing stuff with our brains, hereyago: Tesla's legacy issues with batteries and taxpayers, electric cars (replacement or runabout?), chicks from Georgia parking on the tracks (and the return of the bodycount conundrum), committing auto theft with a Ford, a big foot and cheap tech, two-step security and the old-school LS400 fob, "I, Robot", plus a drive-by from the Air Force Thunderbirds and one Commander "Slappy".

There's more goodness: Desert Sessions and the gang - Kyuss, Fatso Jetson, K.D. Lang, Screaming Trees and "Girl Boy Tom", plus Frankenstein Big Bird.

Garage Hour goons go off about the stupid shed we warned you was going to happen - doesn't take much to figure out the future when you're a geek (2 + 2, cats and kitties).  Yes, truckers in Kalifornistan are going to revolt (80,000 repowers can't be wrong).  Yes, robot cars will try to kill you.  Yes, greenthink is pulling a Spy-VS-Spy and killing itself.  Yes, carbon dioxide haters are plant racists.  Yes, the clot shots don't a candle to old-school medicines already amortized in the world's poorest nations (one-time lucky?).  Yes, gas stoves are still better than electric.  So much good stuff.

Oh yeah, and Primus' head-weirdo Les Claypool mastered the sounds for the original "Cowboy Bebop" - because awesome.

Try on this episode for a two-hour dissertation on how to get what's up (and not be fooled by the info snobs, liars and malcreators in the media).  We've got what's said versus what's meant (and what words mean), how to avoid a legacy of idiocy (Tide Pods & eye shots?), drilling down to what's real and what's fake, why bad PR is just bad PR, emotive hooks (what are they good for - absolutely nuthin'!), and how to read messaging tools and channels for their sincere selves.

Not every day does the Gearhead Consultancy take off its off-roading, road-racing, tin-bending and break-fixing hats to don the professional public-relations fedora, but the time was right - let's be a savvy message consumer.

Roads from the thought with a trip-think spectacular - freeway rules for signal-work, flow-merging, traffic-desnobbing and photo-enforcement unConstitutionalism.  It's geek stuff - what we overdo: while the Garage Hour goons are gear-deep in high-brained cross-country goodness, we consider more than just blacktop: windmill disposal failures, stop signs versus speed limits (physics versus rules), and the Garbage Disposal Syndrome (fix it before it's broken - duhh).

There's more:  a review of the bag of tricks we should all keep for ifs and whens, how gearhead trends move across the country, and an Iowa cornfield mailbox moment.
