I was so excited about getting a SNES that I bought a few games a month or so before I even had the console itself.

My guess is that there are simulated prosthetic hands.

Well, that’s one way to get his name on all kinds of watch lists (I hope!).

I have Waze on nearly all the time, if only to be alerted to nearby road closures, accidents, police activity and suchlike.

Pennsylvania: Yearly inspections but no front plates. I’ll take that tradeoff!

Yeah, I got my license in the mid 1990s and the written part of the test was laughably simple. I spent hours studying the book and the day of the test I couldn’t believe how simple the test was. The actual driving part of the test was probably no more than 30 minutes, if that, on an off-street area behind the testing…

I refuse to spend a moment more arguing with people when it comes to politics and such. I’ve done enough of that in my life and don’t care to spend anymore time doing it. The idea that I’m going to try to be friends with people I have nothing in common with is laughable.

Life is too short to associate with people who I find tedious and irritating.

“Never ever deal with anybody or anything that might have different political views than you.”

I didn’t have the link last night, but if you are interested you can peruse these wind tunnel test images: http://libraryofmotoring.info/2011/08/24/min…

As I said: “I can see certain kinds of people really digging this, but I’m not one of them.”

MINI calls it a spoiler and claims that it does stuff, so it’s good enough for me. Also, it’s mine, so my favorite.

Or when people who don’t care about cars as anything other than an appliance, or as something used purely for transportation, design cars. I can see certain kinds of people really digging this, but I’m not one of them. I want a car that can drive itself but one that I’m mostly driving myself. I’d use it like people…

They all look like they have been dropped from a damaging height.

All in good fun.

One “too” many...

The funny thing is, the more realistic these games look, the more you start to notice things that should be there which are not. Add in some airport and container yard activity and ship traffic next to what you suggested and it would look very real.

Very impressive-looking, especially the constant stream of foot and vehicle traffic. The only thing that breaks the illusion is the lack of activity at the airport and container yards.

Dashcam guy was lucky he didn’t get caught up in this as well, especially with the distraction of the phone call coming in at the worst moment! I almost never take calls in my car, it’s just too disruptive. And if it were me in Dashcam’s place, I hope I would have had the opportunity to put some more distance between…
