he also sports the "skull and bones". google is ur friend on that one.

To my mind a Phoenix on a rich/famous actor implies one thing - he now thinks he belongs to the ranks of the immortals, the illumined ones. the phoenix is not a dragon but is the one that rises from the ashes and is reborn. this implies immortality and is a sign among those who know that the person is aware, and has…

In 1980 when I was in the Navy in San Diego (at the ASW base) I used to ride my Schwinn beach cruiser to Ocean Beach after work with my board on the side). This aint my bike because we didn’t have cameras permanently attached to our hands back in the day, but it looked like this.

BTW - this is also the reason they will never find the “god particle”. The reason is that there is no particle. Rather, the ultimate unit of being is not a physical thing, it is only “described” or in a more modern term, it is an equation, software.

Sort of. The actual point of the movie is that you cannot know if THIS life, the one you are living right now, is “real” or whether it is somehow simulated. Funny thing about that - cutting edge quantum science is leaning heavily toward the simulation hypothesis. The simulation hypothesis is also the subject of…

11) Be seen. Day-Freaking-Glo and not matte black.

wow. that there is no way you would even be capable of making that determination is almost beside the point. the arrogance/ignorance of that statement is boggling. it could only come from a creature that imagines itself at the top of some chain of being.

I read one comment from a woman who said she was sad that her cool car was a poison delivery system. I think virtually everyone else does not give even a tiny shit what they are putting into the air their kids breathe as long as their car is cool and fun and they have the satisfaction of good mpg. Most people who even…

“Tolerated”. This is exactly the problem. The guys who made this happen as a matter of policy are ducking responsibility, lying, and using passive terms. VW is still full of shit with this nonsense, and there is no reason whatsoever to trust them. “Tolerate” implies they didn’t cause that shit to happen on purpose…

Yeah.I hate to be “me too” but the above is true. I have been a pirate street racer since the ‘70’s and have always had a feeling that riding was wicked dangerous. But now that I am ....wiser....and tend to ride more conservatively I find the risk/stress factor seems to be much lower. Still, riders are at the mercy of…

I wonder what percent of rally cars DNF. must be high. I learned this with racing early: FINISH!

anything that facilitates breaking those tiny annoying rules that seem to infest our lives like mosquitoes, always around, always bothering people, always just out of SWAT range....

rightly so. fuck those guys. seriously. I really, really like the idea of suspending monthly payments on affected cars. you have to aim the penalties where they will actually work, and the only place a corporate entity is susceptible to argument is in the wallet. unless you hit them HARD in the money belt, they will…

you eat animals. we all do. but we do not torture them for fun. every being in the universe knows right from wrong. you do too.

by this logic if I come to your house and kill your dog it is OK because worse shit is happening to people in Afghanistan.

yeah, everyone knows that shit is wrong.

i like the idea of tossing a handful of gravel in there.

fold sheets? not.

Oh, I forgot the best part. I got a ticket for "Failure to sound an audible warning when passing." No shit. He cited me for that. One of the witnesses said that the cop was mad at me, mostly because I had caused the driver distress. She was crying becuse she thought she had killed me since I didn't get up very fast. I…
