I came here to post this. One of my pet peeves is people driving with their parking lights on. If you think someone might have trouble seeing you, they’ll see you better with your headlights on low beam than just parking lights alone. It’s not like they’re hooked up to the electric meter at your house and running up…

I live in West Texas, not far from Dyess AFB, home of the USAF 7th Bomb Wing. B-1Bs routinely fly over my home town on training missions, and when they light their afterburners, those suckers are LOUD. I find it very hard to believe a Tu-95 Bear could be louder than a B-1 with afterburners lit.

To quote Hank Hill: “Soccer was invented by European ladies to keep them busy while their husbands did the cooking.”

Let’s get rid of cheerleaders at sporting events of every level while we’re at it. They can all have “yell leaders” like the damned TAMU Aggies.

What about Lotus?

I didn’t notice the Arlo Guthrie quote until you pointed it out! Nice!

When I was in college I waited tables at Bennigan’s in the Houston Galleria mall. The Galleria is a very posh mall, with high end stores like Tiffany’s, Gucci, Giorgio Armani, Versace and even a stand alone Porsche Design Store. They also have your usual mall stores: Champs Sporting Goods, Gap, etc. But the high end…

But there is one thing the Civic Si has that’s better than almost any other car at any price range, and it has six gears and sits next to the driver.

I think it’s ironic that in many states, you can legally ride a motorcycle without a helmet, while it’s illegal to drive a car without a seatbelt.

News flash...lions are cats.

Fast. Reliable. Inexpensive. You can only ever have two at a time.

This is from Led Zeppelin’s BBC Sessions, not Led Zeppelin II. And he never said this was the first Zep album he purchased, just his age and when and where he bought it.

But I also bought II as my first Zep album (cd actually.)

Is the 500hp 4.0L air cooled engine an option on the “regular” Singer, with the gorgeous interior? While I understand the purpose of this car was light weight and high performance, the interior work Rob Dickinson’s crew does is one of the reasons I love their creations so much.

I agree. You couldn’t pay me to drive another one either. My first car was a brand new 87 Sundance five door hatch with the 2.2 and 3 speed auto. I also only kept it nine months, and it was in the dealership for warranty work for two of those nine months. Trans shit the bed, and electrical gremlins plagued that POS. I…
