Oval track racing is generally stupid and boring, anyway. Someone once described as “a 200 mile-per-hour traffic jam”. It’s designed for two things: packing the maximum number of bodies around the minimum amount of track, and maximizing the possibility of crashes to keep the rubes entertained.

How about the H3? A re-clad and re-badged 5-cylinder GMC Canyon sold exclusively to morons. I still see a few on the road around here, going hell-bent for leather, somehow.

Now playing

And don’t ever forget that this was the show that gave us the best cold open ever!

Needs more deletions.

I’ll pass. I did like the ‘nymphomaniac’ joke in the ads, but I don’t think I could sit through 90 minutes of the same.

Lemme know when they can land an F-35 after it takes a hit like this:

Also just about the only Clancy novel that was not cheapened by a ridiculous number of unnecessary sequels.

Aww, that’s sad. The Harrier is my all-time favorite aircraft. I have a video I shot of it doing a vertical take-off from Toronto airport back in the 90s. It is a beautiful and unique aircraft.

I am still pissed that they axed the CRX in favor of the Del Sol. I loved my CRX, and may have bought another, but when I was looking the CRX was DOA, and the Eagle Talon Tsi AWD was the steal of the century, so that’s where my money went.

The good news (for crooks) is it handles like a ute. We had the OPP (Ontario Provincial Police) roll one during a high speed chase up here.

He and Trump are having quite the foot race, huh?

My ex’s sister had one. What a nasty, tinny little car.

If you haven’t watched Henson Studios Farscape yet, check it out on Amazon Prime video. They have all four seasons and the final 2 hour movie.

Don’t forget their other ‘grown-up’ imprint, Hollywood Pictures. Remember their logo?

Get ahold of Ronin on DVD (not the crappy Blu-ray) and listen to the director’s commentary track. I’m sure Frankenheimer will tell you which model it is. (I can’t find my copy at the moment.) BTW, the big Merc in the first car sequence was Frankenheimer’s own car. 

Close, someone on the racing team (probably a few of them) grew up watching Thunderbirds.

You can easily reverse any in-app purchases by going to the Apple web site and disputing the charge. I did it a few months ago with an Internet radio app that claimed to give me a two-week trial but charged me up-front. I just went to the Apple web site, logged in with my Apple ID, and disputed the charge. The system

Funny, I said pretty much the same thing about Saving Private Ryan in the AVClub article about The Longest Day and was widely criticized for it. I stand by my comments that the beach landing was a great sequence but the rest of the movie was pure schmaltz.

That’s adorable!

I had a WRX for 12 years, from ‘02 to ‘14. Racked up a load of tickets, in both Canada and the U.S. NY State Troopers were particularly nasty. Strangely, since I bought my FR-S in 2014 I haven’t got a single ticket, even though it’s supposed to be a cop magnet. Maybe because it’s black they can’t see it?
