Dear glorious, magnificent, exalted, most noble, grand, eminent, splendid and excellent leader approves of this article.

Well, security is not my choice of words. I would much rather have safety than security, even though they sometimes are one in the same. Keeping me safe however does not mean that I need cameras monitoring what I am doing. And, I love your dichotomy: War is peace and freedom is slavery. Kim Jung Un approves of this…

The perfect way to be laid to rest. When my time comes though, please carry my body to the cemetery in a Ferrari FF. Since I am not very large, I could easily be stuffed into the cargo area in the back.

Mmm, Candy Corn. A staple food of mine at this time of year for over 1/2 a century.

The Scandihoovian population in Minnesota is not quite what it was say 50 years ago. The Mall is a pretty diverse place. When you see women in Kimonos and men in turbans as well as a great amount of racial diversity from the area, it is hard to say that the Scandinavian American Community is the majority. Still, that…

I suppose if this were to prevent terrorism at the Mall, it might be worth it. But, having our civil liberties infringed upon presupposes that we are all guilty until proven innocent. While it may sound like hyperbole, having Big Brother watching us or having all of us under surveillance is something we should all be…

Oh Mr. Omniscient One, please read this article about the F1 pyramid scheme and take note of how the article mentions Marussia and Caterham as "filler teams". Now, I said this before the article, but it supports what I was saying.

Once upon a time I will confess to the fact that I was and still am to a certain extent, a huge Honda fan. Had a very built 2007 Si. Tons of fun. In fact, the car was so appealing that I was offered 5K over what I had originally paid for the car. Because Honda had nothing in its inventory in 2011 that appealed to me,…

Best post of the day. 5 stars. Treat yourself to some fine wine and a good dinner tonight. Well done!

Agreed. I am going to order the competition seats, which make the idea moot. You can only get jet black for the competition seats. I just looked at a silver convertible with the red seats and they look pretty bitchin' in it.

And you have my vote. Hopefully, we will see you ensconced in the White House Oval Office very soon! And then, REVENGE! That sheriff in Rappahannock County will rue the day!

Great write up Patrick. I myself am thinking about getting a 2015 C7 with the Z51 package and 7 speed. I have heard great things about the automatic and your comments concur what what I have read and heard. I am of the opinion that that universe will implode if sports cars like the Corvette or Miata have an automatic…

Great article as usual Tyler. Up until the invasion of Grenada, U.S. military branches were incredibly insular and each sought to protects its own interests. During that invasion, a Marine amphibious unit refused to fly Army troops in Marine helicopters. The inter-service cooperation was very poor at the time. Out of…

Funny how a pizza slice shaped vessel could cause so much consternation.

How is this for a piece of history?

I lack knowledge? Gee, I have been following F1 since 1966. Been to many races. Have every race taped since 1982. Have countless periodicals on the subject, but I guess that counts for nothing, right?

I did a double take when I saw both U.S. and Russian ships together. Once the Soviet Union fell, the impossible happened: both countries became friends and began to cooperate with each other. So much better than the Cold War. During the 90s and into the first decade of this century, it seemed like there was a good…

It is not forward thinking? Then, what is it, backwards thinking? Yes, there are defensive considerations, but with permanent bases being an iffy thing in many countries, this is the best alternative. If you are thinking Russia or China, the point is moot because a war would inevitably go nuclear. However, a country…

The lines are feline sexy and the performance is very entertaining to say the least. However, there is something about that legendary Jaguar quality and maintenance that gives me second thoughts.

I am sure there is a huge drain on the budget. But, logistically, it makes sense for the future. Being able to deploy rapidly is vital in this day and age.
