The passenger was American. When they told him to get in on that side, he thought he was going to be driving it.

Thanks for the heads-up. I'm hoping the one I ordered for my Mom comes with 6.2. I'd rather avoid doing tech support on Christmas day. It'll be bad enough having to spend the day teaching her how to use it because she has no idea what she wants to do with it. She just knows it "does books and stuff", and is smaller…

Relax everyone. This is just viral marketing for their new product: The Black & Blueberry.

Anyone else find it funny that a post about a Galaxy S phone catching fire is sponsored by the Droid Razr?

I think they need to call in a professional for a second opinion.

Why? No reason.

Must resist watching Initial D and browsing Craigslist now!

Hybrids Vs. Diesel trucks

I guess the criminals around here are dumber than most, or they are all just crackheads. There are far too many reports around here of criminals either standing their ground or coming at you when they are staring down a barrel. Thankfully most of those criminals end up in a plastic bag.

True, but if you get shot first, it doesn't matter if you roll in with a howitzer. I'd rather not risk it on the off-chance you are facing someone willing to fight back.

I'd be smiling too if I could move like that.

Just a thought on that. The effect it has may not be the one intended. That sound just alerted the intruder that he is not alone, and to expect a fight. His attention is now going from looting to you. He may flee, or he may prepare to come after you instead. If someone were in my house, I'd rather maintain the…

I'm really sad right now. I think my favorite version of the Subieyota is the Toyota version, if I go off looks alone. I think Subaru and Toyota need to swap front ends so that Toyota can keep up the tradition of ugly boring looking cars.

I believe there is place in hell for those people. May they find their way there at a quickened pace, and never leave.

3rd gen F-bodies and the 80s S-10 are two of my guilty pleasures. I know how bad the f-bodies can be, but I got my first taste of hooning in one (and a ton of stories to go with it), and I've always thought about adding one to the driveway. Same for the S-10. It taught me about getting sideways and recovering, the…

Thankfully I've never been hit with anything going much higher than 300fps, nor any frozen paintballs. Hopefully never will. Like I said to Brizon, I have a hard time believing that they hurt at similar levels. It definitely stings getting shot, but I'd imagine getting hit with lead that either goes in one side and…

I used to play paintball, and have been completely lit up from head to toe from just a few feet away. It's good to know when I die in a gang war here in Detroit that it won't feel much different.

One point of clarity: "PepperBalls, which combine the pain and accuracy of a gun with the chemical potency of ol' fashioned pepper spray"

Easy answer? Aim for the crotch instead of the face. Nothing says "stay there and rethink your choices in life" like getting shot in the balls with a paintball/pepperball. It's happened to me once. Not fun.

I collect mead and cheese!
