Strange on the acceleration score. My GTI has plenty of kick at low RPMs. Did they switch to a bigger turbo or is the increase in HP over the GTI's 2.0T strictly software?

I'd hate to work for GM now. I used to work at AON, and they shoved the Man U sponsorship down our throats like they were trying to validate the ridiculous amount of money they spent on the deal. I did get what appears to be a nice quality soccer jersey out of it. Too bad I refuse to give two shits about Man U or my…

Nobody cleans out the god damn community fridge. I pulled moldy pizza and 3 month out of date yogurt out of the fridge this morning just to be able to fit my lunchbox in somewhere. Last week I pulled a gallon ziplock bag of macaroni salad and tossed it. It was in there since I started this job in May.

I don't care how prestigious the Ferrari brand is in F1, you'd be a fool to ditch a consistently well performing team like RBR to drive under them right now.

iSkin Revo. I love the shield because I have a tendancy to bump into glass breaking things with my hip. I've used this brand for cases since the original iPhone. The new window that lets you slide to answer a call without removing the shield is a bonus, but it is flimsy. After 8 months the window popped out of the…

Thanks for reminding me. I need to find my BMW Films DVD and watch it all this weekend.

Closest I ever got to 30mpg in my GTI was a 3 hour drive up I-95 in FL. I only hit 27.

Ahem, Apple's bed is an aluminum unibody machined from a solid chunk of aluminum, not steel.

Now if Bentley made a Heat edition, LeBron and his buddies in Miami would pass out in excitement to buy out the production run..

Heh. To be honest I pretty much only access LH anymore to comment. I keep GReader up all the time to keep up on a good number of websites.

Walk in front of me when i'm trying to take a picture.

It looks like Veil Side got a hold of a California and raped it with fiberglass.

Colin McRae. The rally world took a huge beating with his passing in 2007.

Heh, you mean my old Nikon D50 that went on sale in June 2005? I think at this point a lot of point and shoots could get a fast enough shutter speed to create the same effect.

Gonna have to start doing this. Frozen meats won't even thaw enough over a 24 hour period in my fridge unless it's a thin package like fajita meat. Steaks and mounds of ground beef don't thaw in 20-24 hours for me.

Yes and no. Tire distortion from sidewall flex, probably. Modern camera shutter speed is at a point where I can pause airplane props without any indication of motion.

It's a tax for wearing that stupid face guard.

I really wish I could ride my bike to work. I'm just a little too afraid of the best roads to get to work and taking back roads would probably triple my commute time.

I find this both believable, and hard to believe. Most of the time I see a cop here in Orlando, he's got a rolling road block around him of cars deathly afraid of going even a mile over the speed limit. I don't see how you can speed with traffic bunches up around them like that.

You're forgetting the people who will immediately hate on cyclists because they feel they don't belong anywhere other than a multi-use path or a sidewalk.
