I just learned that after a couple of years of not being able to find his writings, Ezra Dyer is a columnist at Car and Driver

If you want to catch up like I do

What had me looking him up?

This snippet from a 2013 article:

After visiting Jay Leno a couple of years ago, I returned home so embarrassed at my level of ineptitude that I dismantled my sputtering lawn mower in a bid to fix it. By the time I finished, it sounded like a Sopwith Camel in the process of being shot down.

If Jay Leno had this problem, he’d build a new lawn mower, smelting his own ore for the block and crafting the handle from the skids of a surplus military helicopter. The final product would put down 83 hp and be called the Blind Monk, after the sightless holy man who achieved transcendence while jetting the carburetor.
