I passed up/blew off a job with Lockheed/Martin, as a journeyman machinist, in the early 90s because I refused to clean up for a drug test (I smoked a lot of weed back then, I was stupid.

How about roofing? Being an ex-con is a prerequisite.

What about falling asleep at the machine?

And those Bastards control our government.

Because heroin is exactly the same as a Norco. That’s why they lump them together.

Whoa. I had some shit-for-brains with some issue against motorcycle riders (I’m a motorcycle rider, not a “biker”, I don’t dress like a pirate, or wear Nazi helmets with a skull face mask, nor do I scowl at everyone, and try to look like some badass), try to block me when I was splitting lanes (which is legal in CA).…

A good crunchy, like an uncle that gives your kids firecrackers, or a minibike. Or gives them rides around the block on his Harley or his Manx dune buggy, without asking you first, because he thinks the entire world is pussyfying (spelling? Is that even a word?) the next generation.

Peter, Peter, Peter, they’re toys.

The 2 engines pictured for size comparison, compare the numbers (and the costs also). I know that the little twin cam (is that a Honda or something?), can make some fairly stout numbers with enough money thrown at it. But throw the same amount of money at the LS and compare pulls.

I know that guy. In fact, it’s me....

Put them on the dyno and get back to us.

Actually, yes, it does mean you get put into The Prius Category. You see, I drive an Escalade, and I’m automatically put into that “Cadillac Prick” category (I’ve actually read someone’s lips mouthing that at me, it’s real obvious), so by default, you’re in that teeehugger category.

Hey, Hey, Hey now. I RESEMBLE THAT REMARK.
