Correct, doug. Why do you ask?
I understand his question. Half the people in my Minnesota neighborhood have their garages packed with shit and park in the driveway. That’s insane to me. A garage is a really good and practical idea.

I saw my (female) neighbor out gardening this weekend and she had EV’s Ukulele Songs album going. Contrast that with my typical RATM and the like while doing yardwork and this typifies the difference between men and women.
