Just pretend that Luke and Obi-wan are 10’ further away.

Dammit io9, I hate it when you do this to me. Ever since you did a similar post for the Matt Ferguson prints a year or two ago I have developed a high-end poster habit. Looks like we’re going to have another one inbound.

China - the Volkswagen of Asia.

There it is! Nice. Would love to get over there for a tour but it’s hard enough for me to just make it to the museum. Might have to make a special trip to Dayton once the new wing is open.

I’m a reasonably patriotic guy but some of the labeling is a bit over the top. I suppose you have to make allowances for the fact that you are on a military base in middle America.

I read that they have a couple of Mig-25 Foxbats in the restoration facility but they are missing wings and they are looking for replacements so they can put them on display. That will be awesome, particularly since the Foxbat was designed as a response to the threat of the XB-70.

The plane was originally displayed outside at the Air Force Museum but was moved indoors to what the call the Presidential Hanger many years back. This was a pair of hangers that were actually located on the base itself as opposed to the museum which is adjacent to the base but outside the secure area. To visit it,…

I had the great pleasure of finally crossing a pilgrimage to visit this off my bucket list in August. What an incredible aircraft. I’m excited about its new home, but the old Presidential hangar where it was located was pretty cool in that you had to take a bus onto the base itself and all of the aircraft were…

Buddy of mine in college drove back to school one fall with his new ride, a lightly-used Jeep Cherokee in great shape. Around January, he calls me up and tells me it’s in the shop, the engine seized and needs to be replaced. Pretty crazy, I asked him what happened. It didn’t have any oil in it. “When did you last top…

We heard Supreme Leader Snoke in the first trailer but we haven’t seen him, just like we heard Luke in the second trailer but haven’t seen him. We’re all looking for Luke because we know and love him, but the big bad hasn’t been revealed either. There’s something of a symmetry there. We’ve been seeing all of the core…

Blue headphones sound so very!

Oh, that was nothing compared to dusty rose.

To this day, I think I say “Twirling, twirling, twirling towards freedom!” at least on a weekly basis in ordinary conversation. Usually on Fridays.

Had this happening on a 2007 A4 Avant. Turned out to be some sort of brake valve that was malfunctioning and kicking in the traction control which cut the power - as with your situation, usually at the worst possible time. Luckily my shop was able to figure it out in a reasonable amount of time (and $)

I can’t post pictures form work for some reason, somebody please put an Enzo up.

Pretty sure someone was shouting “Wolverines!” in Arabic.

Thank you for not feeling the need to share a video of your work.

If anybody actually bothered to watch the interview, it was clear that it was never a plan of his. He spoke of two options for terraforming, the quick and dirty way or the slower way - nuking was the first one obviously. He clearly didn’t think it was a good idea, just mentioned it as an accelerated method. Of course,…

Traveling in Canada has historically been a minor hassle without the chip since they use chip + PIN. Now we have the chip but not the PIN (for credit cards, in most cases). Will the new cards be beneficial up there or will the lack of PIN still cause disruption?

Been done before - the Studebaker Avanti became Avanti Motors.
