    Snow gear and rental cars

    We just completed a nice ski vacation in Utah, traveling from NorCal in our own car. I had a ski box and winter tires on it, and everything went off without a hitch. However, the drive is a major drag. 11-12 hours of Nevada desert, crossing endless summits until you get to Salt Lake City. Done...

    Mondawmin mall, Baltimore

    I'm in Baltimore for a couple of days for work, staying at an Inner Harbor hotel. Today I needed a TV, and I didn't have a car. So I looked up the closest Target, punched in Google directions using city transit - and off I go. From the Charles St. station to Mondawmin. The ride in the metro...

    And that's how the fight started...

    Is the dwarf joke particularly unfunny, or am I missing the punchline?
