    What if Oppo did one of those glossy hoity-toity magazines you get in the weekend paper?

            Now I wonder if our location likes are just as quirky as our car choices.

            Rich and on vacation? Forget Aspen, you should hit up Ord, Nebraska!

            Give me all the ‘70s Datsuns, ‘80s Toyotas, and ‘90s Hondas.

              the fact that I googled Ord to see if there was something I needed to check out at some point probably tells you the answer to that question

                We in the biz don't like to put them out on weekends because the weekend paper volume strains the adorably static delivery network!

                Does Wednesday sound good?

                    I haven’t actually been there yet...that I know of.

                    I’m not opposed to actually staying for a day or two in Clayton, NM once the pandemic has eased up. I’ve driven through it about 800,000 times this year and I’m intrigued even though there’s nothing really there either.

                        Finally, I've realized a lifelong dream: Making it onto the cover of Brougham.

                          Just a small note : A Brougham is an hippomobile (translation of horse-drawn carriage in French ).

                              Brougham is great, but I feel like naming our magazine How to Send it is a missed opportunity.

                              I keep buying Land Rovers because I don't have a problem and I can quit anytime I want.

                                @someassemblyrequired Wait...there's another Oppo in Akron?

                                edit: googled the name and found the @mikespin article from 2012. That was right around the time I started reading Jalopnik and Oppo.

                                  Yea, I did too. Then I put in the hailing port of my boat Paradise WY. It isn't there anymore... I knew it lost it's Post Office a few years ago but the Feds still let me register there every year. (Federal Documentation Number form requires a Hailing Port with a Zip Code.) Now it's just bare dirt. No town, not even a house.

                                    @bloody-the-resident-shitposting-saffer Yep, it definitely is. We will have to fire 15 interns for our mistake.

                                      @barnie It's even better because if I remember right, Paradise is like 50 miles from any body of water you could put something in bigger than a kayak
