If your sister wanted to date somebody you didn't already know, would you demand that they ask your permission first? (If your answer is "yes", then it will come as no surprise to anybody who knows about your possessive attitude if your sister decides she's going to keep all her dating secret from you in the future.)…

Not completely sure I'd go for the cheddar cheese crust, but I would be totally willing to try it out ^_^

Well, apparently, you're allowed to wear whatever you like provided the Fashion Police™ approve of it…

Interesting , but I'm fairly sure I can walk way faster than whatever sped they are using.

According to the website (if I understand it correctly) they have tested it with haulage rigs weighing up to 250,000 pounds: good enough for you?

The panels would cover the whole thing, not least because the markings would be generated by lighting up the LEDs. You could reconfigure a parking lot on the fly to deal with current usage: need an extra disabled space or two? Need more "mother and child" spaces at certain times of the day? How about dynamic…

I love your idea of changing lane markings on the fly, that would be excellent!

So far it's a winner just for the music ;-)

Am I the only one reminded of the "little man from the other place" in Twin Peaks here?

I am a Christian (well…I belong to the Church of England and we reckon that qualifies) and my usual response to the kind of nonsense this wonderfully stupid character spouts about "if it isn't in the Bible, it doesn't exist" is to point out that the small furry creature who sleeps on my bed and presents me with the…

I have an older UK car which has an interesting way of decoding the "check engine" light: you have to delve under the hood to locate what looks like a data socket…and short it out! The next time you start up, the hazard lights will flash a certain number of times (long flashes for tens, short for units, I am not…

Am I reading this right, this cave is over 13 thousand kilometers long? Or is this a formatting mismatch? #correction

Is it too late to point out that the colours of the green and purple "play-in battles" have been reversed? #correction

Two questions: is Sean Bean going to make it through this alive, and holy cow, is that a dragon?
