Very nicely put.

Farmers, the people in Bangladesh who sewed your jeans, the lascars on the ship that brought your jeans over to the US, the people at the warehouse and the people at the retail store, the pharmacist at CVS, the postdoc and his PI who did the ground research which led to making the drug that you take when you are…

There is a description of a photo-recon Spitfire pilot looking in the rearview mirror and noticing his condensation trail, and then descending a few hundred feet until it disappears. From “Bomber” by Len Deighton. In other words, your description is accurate.

Yes, and we are told that better bypass ratios provide better fuel economy. Hahaha.

The perpetuation of the species is an important thing.

Unfortunately, such nice folk are usually outnumbered by the rank idiots.

Modern jet fuel is actually a binary compound which upon oxidation produces the chemicals which are chemtrailed across the skies. This is a win win. Power your jet and spread chemtrails.

Thank you for sharing. Some wag on the internet once said that the only man made objects visible from space are 1. The Great Wall of China and 2. the panel gaps on a Bristol.

Tell us more about ze Bristol.

Yes, with lots of Evoras and Exiges and maybe a few Sagaris/Tuscan and TSO Marcos chassis as well. It is a very nice place. I have even heard that Bristol still makes a few Fighters there.

Hey Torch, can you write us an article about the Mahindra Axe and the Jonga SUV? Seeing as you have an affinity for oddball vehicles from the Indian subcontinent, this should pique your interest.

I have it on good authority that such Citroen owners have experienced luxuries that Volvo drivers do not even know exist.

This.

That truck needs a big happy dog in the back to be complete.

It is so beautiful! *a single man tear rolls down left cheek*

Your first bad decision has be smacking my head on the keyboard.

I would have thought antiskid. But on that note, I should say that the Americans With Disabilities Act and the construction / architecture changes it has mandated is one of the greatest things in the US. Coming from someone who learned not to take these things for granted.

Is that G8 the late 2000's car with the nostrils from down under? I have good things about it.

Bucket list updated!
