Hey, that radar is just going through some serious shit right now, okay? Give it some space, man.

But what I really wanna know is, are you gonna go my way? Well, that and: will this new model impact the pricing of the GSIII? I'm asking because I'm due to upgrade away from my Droid Xosaurus in about a month and a sub-$150 price tag on the GSIII that I covet would be most welcome.

The mission wasn't to bring 9 functional rocket engines to ISS; it was to bring a ton of supplies to ISS. Big checkmark next to that one. In other words, it's not the "how" that matters, it's the "what." In fact, I'd say this success is even more meaningful *because* of the (partial) hardware failure - that proves the…

Purely by choice, I'm certain.

Landing was hard, but could be done with skill and practice. Hitting the refueling tanker was just completely arbitrary and capricious, though.

Navy, all the way. There are many good reasons (no scarves, training missions at NAS Key West), but the best is the organizational structure. In the AF, pilots are cogs in the machine. One F-16 squadron is pretty much the same as any other. In the Navy, squadrons are unique, individual entities with long histories,…

The Locost guys have a deep and abiding love for dropping a 13B into their creations. It sounds like a phenomenal match. I want to go to there.

I've described Redshirts to people as "living at the intersection of Star Trek and Community." Are you a Community fan, by any chance?

As an aside, I'm halfway through S:U on Netflix and its cancellation was a goddamn travesty, I say.

(Completely off-topic, feel free to ignore) Did you have a hand in planning Wil Wheaton's surprise party? It looked unbelievable from what little has been made public. I'm a bit surprised there wasn't more said about it, given the social media savviness of many of those who were there. (I mean, come on, it's not like…

Can't...tell...if...meant...literally....

I've worked in and around college admissions for more than a decade. Your blanket assumption that college admission professionals don't understand and consider context when dealing with high school students and their zany antics is, in my experience, dead wrong. Students are given plenty of of opportunities to explain…

Wait, wait, wait...you can get cancer of the breast?! What the hell is this?! Why wasn't I told?!

Yeah, that bugged me too. I don't expect perfection, but a little hustle would be nice.

Hehe, yep. I'm a righty. Shifting with my non-dominant hand was a shit-show (shift-show?) I got to drive a last-gen Focus hatchback in the UK (I think it was a diesel?), and an old Volvo 740 wagon in Sydney. In all cases it was by default because I was the only one present who was sober/licensed/manual-trans-capable.…

Try driving a RHD car sometime. Your windshield will be sparkling, but you'll leave a trail of devastation in your wake.

Yes. YES! Especially in dense urban areas, PREDICTABILITY is the best way to avoid being an accident-causing d-bag.

Paris is what, like 6 hours ahead of the eastern US? I'm sure the editors are out at all sorts of fancy parties getting exclusive tips and first-drives of breathtaking new ca...what's that? Baguettes and red wine alone in their cheap hotel rooms, you say? Well, I guess that's one explanation for the retread roundup…

It says "Everything [I] Need To Know," and yet the phone number of the fetching lass in the banner picture is nowhere to be found. I've been sold a bill of goods!

I just bought a 2011 Santa Fe to haul the family around in. ...Can I trade it in for a 13? I dunno, I just...want to.
