Dear Koresh above, the blatant irony of the "free market" website name. How dumb can they be?

Good. (I hope his contract has loopholes which allows him to keep $ if he retires for "health reasons") I've been a football fan all my life, up until recently (that Article The Atlantic did was a real eye-opener for me) http://www.theatlantic.com/magazine/archi… It's time we end this horror show of a PRIVATELY OWNED…

one thing to remind the sanctimonious electric/hybrid drivers is that in most cases - aka: prius - the "carbon footprint" attached to just the manufacturing of the battery packs (mining of rare-earth metals in China (mostly), ore-shipping, refining/smelting, raw-material-shipping, manufacture, shipping of…

..who resigned only a couple months into his 4th term after an attractive young campaign aide - he was rumored to be having an affair with - was found dead in his Panama City, FL "main" campaign office. This is "House of Cards" level stuff, but it's real - from Wikipedia (and plaenty if other sources) http://en.wikip…

Pucking fossums!

Well, yeah, technically ALL names were made up somewhere "back in the day" (as are "titles", etc.)

Indeed. let us all remember that at some point in their family "history", some progenitor just made up the whole "we're royal" thing. Just because it is an old lie, doesn't make it any less a lie. (P.S. - I am a "Duke"... tee hee)

Well, Hugo Boss did make those snappy SS uniforms. Black and Brown. Most stylish uniforms ever, too bad... http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hugo_Boss…

All these tools are slow-playing their entry, because they all know - the front-runner 18 months out, is not the front-runner 2 weeks before election day.

After all the rumors of the Dornan/Johson enmity, it was funny to see what an entitled little brat DJ was to her Mom on the Oscars red carpet "Gah Moooom.. see my movie already..."

She's totally getting Mira Sorvino'd

Ugh.. "es ist sehr klar.. I'M A DJ!!!!!..." dub-step annoyance. Just let us hear the engine sing!

My Dad had one of those early Q45's. Silky smooth yet a proper brute when taunted. Once when my Mom was driving it on the highway she got pulled over "accidentally" doing 105 mph - and got away with a warning (OK, nice little suburban white lady, I believe you..). Loved that car & Pops wishes he still had it.

Rearward facing seats would be much safer - from an impact perspective. We already use mirrors & cameras to see behind us, why not use them to see in front, while positioning ourselves for the greatest safety in a collision? (like a stuntman falling into an airbag - back first, with even support across the spine,…

For that matter, as effective as the ICE has been, it is still an insanely crude idea - "hey, let's explode hydrocarbon liquids inside a metal box and harness the energy through a recovery piston." If super-advanced aliens landed today, they'd look at an ICE and shake their heads "yeah, OK, I guess it sort of works...…

They've yet to come up with a compound for the load-bearing structure that is supple enough to replicate pneumatic tires, yet sturdy enough to put up with the heat/friction associated with highway speeds. If you closely read any article about these type tires, it'll tell you something like "limited to 20 minutes of…

The funny thing with mirrors is how accustomed we train ourselves to be with reverse images. It's actually very unnatural, but as new drivers we learn how to instantly read & react to the mirror image(s). Eventually the self-driving 'bots will take care of all that, but in the interim maybe a HUD image "plan view" of…

"The longer a technology has been used, the greater the likelihood it will continue to remain viable" or something like that - think of a hammer, 10's of thousands of years of use, still a very effective technology for many purposes. Until someone invents a windshield/windscreen that never gets wet, dirty, dusty,…

Hendrick was, is and always will be a scumbag. For decades he became a billionaire car-dealer by bilking people through monopolistic-price-fixing via his iron-fisted control of an entire region's car dealership. He was convicted of racketeering in a Federal court- got super-lucky having to serve "house arrest" in his…

Seems he wrongly lifted throttle after the slide began, then traction hooked-up, and he was cross-median bound at that point. Also didn't appear to counter-steer nearly enough. More counter-steer, and staying a bit on-throttle would've likely led to a saved slide. Regardless of any Monday-morning QB-ing, or his overly…
