Unlikely. Its the 'most watched factual television program' in the world, and this simply increases its visibility. Clarkson may be hated by many - but many of those who hate him tune in to see what they can hate him for THIS week. Ratings are life.

Ponder, the poor bastard that he is, got hit more than any one human should have to endure, football player or not. If any of his O lineman cash a check this week, they're thieves.

THE AMANTALADO!

THEN WHERE ARE MY DAMN SPACE DWARVES!? HUH?! HUH!?!?!

I just love the fact that we're getting this in 'depth' on this...

I can get behind that - but its common usage does make the headline confusing. We're all being pedantic here - but then again, we're reading about (and discussing) a 'dip' in a gravitational field that none of us could perceive, in a place that (likely) none of us will ever visit. I expect that tends to attract…

This was my first thought - where the hell did all that mass GO?! Dip and shift isnt being pedantic - they mean two different things. A 'dip' in gravity means that we have less gravity.

Noted - I'll have to give a try. I live about 10 minutes from the Usingers factory in downtown Milwaukee, (Mile-wauk-a, the good land) so I tend to just shop at the factory for fresh - but Im always down to explore!

Those shoes are fantastic. I will be buying them for one of my shoe fetishist lady friends yesterday.

Bratwurst...served on a baguette!? My German sausage does not spend its time in that surrender bread!

Well, at least I know I'm not a freak. At 29 (holding out for a few more months!) I cant even look at someone under the age of 25 without wanting to cut off my man bits with a cleaver.

I was out for drinks with a friends daughter (aged 22) last night, and while there were many creepy old dudes who seemed to…

Just watched that a month and change ago at a classics race - was an early 2000's renno pulling against a champ car at Road America. It didnt look a whole lot different than this.

Yeah, this is probably the best way to explain it (other than the obvious - storytelling is just easier the the martians speak martian). There's even some precedent for it in our own culture. English is becoming the 'common' of the west, where even though it may not be the first language of most Europeans, its…

The renno's are a thing of beauty - but there isnt much market in the US for them. The Ferrari makes more sense - and their history tells us that they'll catch back up.

unpossible.

International relations make strange bedfellows. Its the way its always been. I'm not going to try too hard to argue the ethics of it, but, consider: without giving Osama those stingers, there's a good chance the Russians win in Afghanistan - or at least spend a lot less money there. If that happens, when does the…

You're probably right - some people would be. The rest of us would be AMAZED that people were shocked. Constant low level conflict will continue to be the rule of the day for a long time, with the only breaks being when things get truly nasty and a full scale war breaks out. I don't know that anyone likes it - but…

What the...is Magaray immortal and previously English?!

Stop it. Please. You're killing me. This has been rehashed about a million times now on Jaloponik - which is where I'll refer you for an actual breakdown of why you just said is idiotic. However, the summery is:

1) You can't see shit to the right front of a sprint car.

Again, to echo the statements of the more informed below you -
