I once stood at the end of the long straight at Lime Rock when the CanAm cars were there.  The sound of those 7 liter Chevy’s at full song makes your whole body vibrate.

alternatively you could simply leave that nascent archipelago

Vonneguts’ short story “The Report on the Barnhouse effect” is simply screaming for someone to write a screenplay of this.  I see it as a sort of “Ghostbusters” type of comedy.  Matt Damon to play the soldier who discovers his telekinesis by rolling dice.  Please make this movie.

Oh God! NO! 

in  the Indian Ocean.  right next  to the wreck of that Maylasian airliner no one will ever find.

so far, none of the pieces have returned to earth in anything like useable condition.  I would bet money that China might try to locate the wreckage for data on those engines.

Literally, Minutes of fun. (James May voice)

Made those too. Until the IED’s got so big they would launch the Hummers.

I used to make windshields for MRAPs.  They would stop a .50 cal AP round.

Every piece of rubber bushing anywhere on it is more brittle than an old golfers’ back.  Every hose (and there are a bunch) is similarly perished.  For another few thousand it could be made into a driveable boomer luxo barge.  Nah.

Libertarionism is, at best, a fever dream.  There has never been any sort of libertarian governance of a nation.  Basically, its feudalism. Rich entities do whatever they want and they are the only ones who prosper.  You know, like it is right now.  The difference between authoritarian Russia and the U.S. is mostly in…

The Honda engine is a bit chewy.  I’d go for the Toyota.

Once I figured out how much time it needed to Sou Vide properly, I use it all the time.  Brine your pork and then sou vide and its very good.

I’d bet a lot of those engines will be massively heat soaked in ten minutes of operation.

I tried to buy one, but I couldn’t get in it.  They are way small.  Cool cars, just built for swedish lugers

Isn’t that where the Colossal Squid is supposed to live?
