These days, your BMW SUV is probably built in South Carolina, and your Ram 1500 could have been built in Mexico. If you want the most American-made car that you can possibly buy, at least… Read more…

Now that Pat Sajak retired, who has been on national American tv for each of the last 40 years?

( www.reddit.com )

Now that Pat Sajak retired, who has been on national American tv for each of the last 40 years? I can only think of Vanna White and Lorne Michaels. For this question, “working in the industry” doesn’t count. So someone like Tom Selleck wouldn’t apply. He was on Magnum in the early 80s and Blue Bloods today but he hasn’t been on tv consistently every year. Also, I’m sure there are local tv reporters, but who is someone all Americans know …

Has anyone gone to an overwater bungalow in the Caribbean/Central American that they’d recommend?

( www.reddit.com )

Has anyone gone to an overwater bungalow in the Caribbean/Central American that they’d recommend? We don’t travel often, and usually when we do it’s to somewhere with hiking/nature stuff, but it’s our tenth wedding anniversary and even though he’d never ask, I know my husband would really like to go somewhere tropical. I’m not a beach girl, but he’s the best husband in the world, so I want to do it if we can find the right place. We can’t do…
