I wonder what this guy’s occupation was prior to this conflict which necessitated a bullet proof car

Perhaps you are only looking at the crash stories instead of all the ride reviews and other stuff? Okay, I did a quick count and the ratio of ‘crash’ stories in the last 30+ articles is about 1 out of 3, so I guess that can seem a bit heavy on that aspect of riding, although I would make an exclusion for racing…

Hillary’s husband stuck cigars in a subservient girl in the oval office

Beyond the scare-ish tactics, the entire proposition is brutally and stupidly pointless.

At that point you might as well just run around and shoot people in the face.

Seriously, right? I saw some low rent imitations of Papa Lazarou, and was thinking “wtf is a babadook?” ... (in case anyone is wondering, Papa Lazarou is a character from the BBC comedy show League of Gentlemen that came out around 15 years ago).

Reminds me of a joke that was making the rounds back in the early/mid 80's ...

Thank you Sean for that excellent synopsis of what actually happened, but the one detail that is missing, that I am really curious about is this: under what authority did the GG dismiss the government?

Lots of interesting tid-bits, but the narrator dude started getting really preachy and pretentious in the last 2 minutes or so.

it really isn’t any specific writer’s fault if things like this slip in - it’s the industry

I like Zunes ... still have mine on my desk so I can fondly think “I remember when ...” as I listen to music on my bluetooth earbuds from my phone.

Very spiffy, but clearly a specialty product that won’t “kill the desktop PC as we know it”.
