sometimes something is what it is. and in this case, barring a very odd case of divine intervention it was a jet that hit the Pentagon.

well, i can say with a pretty high degree of certainty, 99.99999999999999999999999 repeating, that its a jet. for the simple fact that we see SOMETHING hit the ground before it strikes the building, and ordinance doesnt behave like that. any missile or bomb fired would have flown directly into the side (or the roof)

ok, ill bite and at least attempt a rational debate here.

what else could it have been?

5th grade, front desk of row two from the door in my classroom. the teacher came up front and told us the news, we didnt understand it at first because he gave us the impression it was a Cessna, but once we heard about the pentagon strike from the news (we could listen but not watch cause the TV was ANCIENT) it hit me

and because they are too goddamn stupid to realize that murder is only going to continue to bring the hammer down on their heads.

it goes without saying that the US response (and the entire Iraq War) was a bit of a cluster fuck, but your moral high horse goes right out the window when you start bombing your own people

ill trade you, i was 5th grade when it happened and i knew immediatly what it meant. maybe because i had and uncle in the Military so i was more exposed to that line of thinking, but i knew a lot of people died, that everything was a target, but above all that it meant war.
some somber shit on the shoulders of a 10

and thats not accounting for any enhanced effect of air being sucked into the fires, increasing their intensity in very closed spaces.

i think someone has actually tried an attack like that, with RC planes. the FBI busted them, but its an example of being creative.

if you want others examples, look at the attempts post 9/11 that were foiled by civilians.

my particular favorite is the Christmas underware bomber, that puke from Africa who tried to take down a jet with a bomb sewn into his underpants. if my memory serves, after he suceeded in setting his tiny little prick on fire,

Video of the Pentagon strike. took me less than 30 seconds on google, for those who still tote the inside job bullshit line (not saying you do, but please disperse this to the non believers)

Working in a Resturaunt for a year and a half now ive been lucky to avoid any incidents such as this.

when it does eventually happen, PLEASE let it be a group of devout Asatruians (old viking religion)! sure they might tear the place up, but at least it will be one hell of a party!

made all the more ironic by the fact that the Good lord liked his fermented beverages

Start posting the car all over the net.

one of the main writers here at Jalopnik had his old bug stolen. it took a few days, but someone happened to see it in person and we all pitched in to track it down.

the more you get the word out there, the more likely it is someone will spot it or the tow rig and be able to

alright gentlemen, we know the drill. scouts in the area get to it, track down the BMW or the trailer and get that info to the owner asap like we did with Torch’s bug!

except the 599 WASNT a 400K plus car.

lets call it like it is, the LFA was a total flop.

and i cannot think of another car built in recent memory that lost more than it was sold for beyond the LFA and Veyron. the difference between those two is the Bugatti was built from the ground up to be the absolute fastest car on the planet. i still cant quite figure

fair point there, id LOVE to see them bring back an RX as a Halo car.

as for the Miata, yeah im on the side of it needs more power. at the same time, they dont need to match the PWR of the 370, because the Miata will already run rings around it everywhere shy of a drag strip. even at the HP disadvantage its the more

the LFA flopped because they went overboard with the engineering and blew ten years going from concept to production.

and im not saying a team up cant produce some good cars, i just dont understand why none of them can seem to get one going under their own power

ever driven one? for their respective class they are at the top of the list in driveability. not the flat out fastest things on the street, but that idea of perfomance has trickled down and permeates the entire lineup.

its not all about sheer balls out power
