Check the credits on Survivorman. The show is done with funding from the Canadian Film Board, which I believe is a gov't agency.

Aaron, please don't kowtow to the totalitarians. You don't have to apologize for using Fox as a source. It's at least as reliable as the New York Times or Washington Post.

Sorry, but all credibility in your article is immediately eroded the second you quote Fox "News".

Right, because anyone conservative is inherently unreliable when it comes to factual material. The amount of moral and intellectual preening from the left is almost funny. I'm not a huge fan of Coulter's or Malkin's but Michael Barone is a terrific political analyst whose been relied upon by the mostly left leaning…

I use power tools that are 40-60 years old, bought by my late father. A lot of things back then used sturdier castings and bigger, more durable bearings than would be spec'd today. When he's older, my 21 month old grandson will use my dad's circular saw and probably his grandson will too.

good for a few seconds but lacks the endurance

Denise is one of my favorite car people and a very classy lady. If you note, she refrained from commenting on Stirling Moss' comments about women and F1 and my guess is that she'll probably stay out of this one too.

So I'm not allowed to say that some of my best friends are Jews and blacks? Yesterday I spoke to three friends, two blacks and a Jew. Actually, some of my good friends are both Jewish and black. Some are black, Jewish and female, and they're not nearly as hypersensitive about racism and sexism as Marshall Preutt.

2002 Lincoln Blackwood pickup truck. On sale in the U.S. for just one year (it continued on in the Mexican market for '03). That's like a sitcom that's canceled after only one episode. A total of only 3,356 Blackwoods were produced. You might still be able to find a new one sitting on some dealer's back lot. Ford…

It works better as a lyric than in reality:

The Auburn Cord Duesenberg museum should be visited by anyone who says they like cars. The Cord E-1 prototype is just one of the many, many magnificent cars (and not just from the ACD brands) and the building, the former HQ and factory showroom for E.L. Cord's car companies is one of the finest Art Deco structures you…

While those are all worthy museums to visit it seems to me that the list is kind of light on museums that feature American cars. The Gilmore near Kalamazoo and the Auburn Cord Duesenberg museum in Auburn both belong on this list. Also, you can probably see both museums in one day, though it's best to take a couple…

You're not the only car guy who is left cold by the Veyron. Impressive accomplishment but hardly an object of desire for many car enthusiasts. Ferdinand Piech's big swinging dick.

Everyone associated with cars and car culture who has met Leno says that he's a regular car guy. Most car shows on tv get some facts wrong, but I've never heard any bullshit from Leno, he's about as knowledgeable a collector as you'll find. Judging by the cars in his collection, Ralph Lauren is also a knowledgeable…

I'm still trying to figure out how people from India and people from Japan are both "Asians". Turkey is in Asia Minor, does that make Turks Asians? I'll continue to use perfectly good words like oriental and niggardly and screw the illiterates who want me to censor my words because of their sense of offense. Oriental…

It's good to see Denise McCluggage make the list. She's a fine writer and photographer in addition to her skill as a driver and competitive skier. She's the definition of class and has been personally gracious to me. Be sure to check out her web site: http://www.denisemccluggage.com/

I think it's interesting that Denise McCluggage (a great, classy lady, who was also an outstanding competitive skier, and who has been personally gracious to me) has refrained from commenting on her friend Stirling Moss' comments about women and Formula 1. Sir Stirling was talking about a very narrow bit of human…

If the ladies are embellishing their ladyparts with crystals, why not headlamps?

Did someone say something about the new NSX in 3D?

A few years ago, when Ford introduced the Focus SVT at the media preview of the Chicago Auto Show, someone, either someone with press credentials or otherwise working the show, stole the shifter knob out of the car. Since it wasn't quite in production yet, someone had to drive over from Ford HQ in Dearborn with the…
