if you don't have a ramp, or a nice useful ditch, you better have a friend with a tow truck to lift the front end and give your truck a nice angle

the album cover art of Crush, by OMD (also known as Orchestral Manoeuvers in the Dark) was based on an obscure 70 year old painting

While this is a painting of Paul Slater, the theme of an Edward Hopper influences the painting as dictated by Caz Hildebrand. The album from my readings is full of oddities. Hildebrand decided he wanted a car, a couple, and the Hopper type theme. Slater did the work and assumed it went well since no alterations were needed. The main building in the center right is almost a duplicate from Hopper�s 1930 painting Early Sunday Morning. https://albumcoverart.wordpress.com/2008/12/17/1985-orchestral-maneuvers-in-the-dark-crush/

And that's 36,000 posts!

I'd never thought about it like this... but it's true, once that snow has been packed down, those roads are smooth for the winter
