As a woodland elf, there is only one thing I love in this world. That’s getting the best of dwarves. While my people sought to create a well-rounded compact crossover that can safely transport a Fellowship to the likes of Mordor, the dwarves also set out to create their own version.

It’s Time To Rethink Cincinnati Marathons…Using Ford Trucks
Americans have spoken. They don't want to throw their lives away, busting their knees every so often through the horrors of a marathon. Yes, they're good for raising awareness for certain illnesses and diseases, and, yes, they're good for helping charities, but that doesn't mean we can't make them more efficient.
