    Hold my beer

    Those trucks can handle reasonable jumps , I watched one win the tuff truck competition at Monsters on the Beach in Va. Beach a few years ago . Brand new Raptor off the show room floor took the same jump the monster trucks were taking and landed like it was nothing but a dip in the road . There...

    Boston Marathon

    Find where they work out of , there is bound to be extra stuff in their work shop , rig it all to go off when they are there . Maybe a camera and remote to get it right . Oh yah , a series of beeps and lights flashing just long enough to let them know its coming ! No trial , no jail , just boom...

    The green thing.

    That big over-puffed fire in the sky can't even warm my butt ! Especially if I'm sitting on it in my house with the A/C blowing full blast , playing Need For Speed on my wall sized TV , drinking beer from a non-refillable bottle , and eating junk food , while waiting for the pizza to be...

    What are your favourite sayings?

    Sorry I was late , but F#*kn'n off takes time . Nine out of ten women are battered , I'm still eating mine plain . I immediately thought of George Carlin telling airplane fart jokes when I heard Nancy Pelosi say " we have to pass it to know whats in it " , at least I think it was her ...

    WTF?

    Unfortunately its always one or two idiots with misdirected emotions , and no self control that make life so much better for everyone else ! Case in point , my Kids tell me that starting this week all the doors to the classrooms in the schools here are locked . Other than when changing classes ...

    WTF?

    Most people I know are armed to the teeth , Loaded for Bear , with a back up for Elephants ! And not all of them are nut jobs , no more than I am for having as many cars , motorcycles , tools and supplies as I do . A hobby is good ! Not the point . These same people were raised with home values...

    WTF?

    Violent video games have no affect ? I remember reading about target practice and soldiers . Went something like ... WW1 , soldiers trained to shoot at bulls eye style targets , and a large percentage had trouble killing the enemy until they felt mortally in danger , i.e. didn't aim even to hit...

    Is the right to bear arms outdated.

    Take the right to bear arms from law abiding citizens , and only criminals will have them . They have them now , and most didn't get them honestly . I know its an old argument , But locks only keep honest people honest . Look what happens now , create a no gun zone , and someone shoots it up ...

    Windows 8 or Apple ?

    I've played with PCs , tried to build one or two , had one built - which fell prey to a 5lb hammer . My wife is a production manager and uses Mac , and now iDo . I have to work with PCs at work and am glad to get home to my mac . Windos sounds like new headaches at work .

    Hey Dad can I borrow the car?

    Got to love track days ! Reminds me of Langley Speedway about the same time , tape the headlights , remove the hubcaps , then 2 x 2 - 5 laps drag race / self demo derby with cars that had no business being on the track . My neighbor's wife bought a '73 Mustang Mach 1 one saturday morning , and...
