Why are car tires always black? Why can't they be colors like we had on bicycles in the 60s? Those where neat-o and groovy!

 

From Google:

 

"Today I found out making tires black, instead of the natural white color of rubber, produces a much stronger and longer lasting tire. Originally rubber tires were white, which is the natural color of rubber."

There's only about 30% natural rubber in a tire now. Carbon black is also used in tire making which the IARC claims is carcinogenic to humans.

So bored I'm watching "Gone With the Wind".

 

Scarlett is a slapper. She has slapped Ashley, Nellie and Rhett.

 

And she shot a Yankee! :lol2:

 

Classic, but I can only take the Scarlett character for so long then I need a break.

I'd shoot a Yankee too if I was from Georgia and they took 2 out of 3 from the Braves.
