In Texas, Interstate 69 continues to take shape; albeit, ever too slowly. The temptation is for this writer to tell construction workers and designers: "Hurry up!"

That's likely the way people northeast and southwest of Houston are feeling right now. I-69 is seeing new mainlanes finally going in around Splendora and in El Campo. Basically, it's the eastern segment of what has been the U.S. Highway 59 bypass in the latter community. The western portion...

Probably a dumb question about motor oil

Unbeknownst to this writer, someone had snuck a little flyer under my windshield wiper so that I could see it. Now, since it was dark outside, I didn't see the flyer with the ad until I had arrived at work. It was the...
