Well howbowdah. Even though I cut the cord several years ago, my old cable password still works for access to FS Go. Hot freakin’ damn!

Meh. You win some, you lose some. But thanks for the kind words.

Bosche

It all depends on what they knew, when, and what can be proven. Without a paper trail, Bosch could easily make the case that they developed this software for VW under the assumption it would be used for “test purposes only”, and it was VW’s decision to use it for something other than its intended purpose.

“Super Cool” in case you weren’t quite sure.

If she smiled at them, she might get them to do a wicked j-turn and burnout in the opposite direction.

This is exactly the reason why no one listens to the scientists in disaster movies.

My local autocross club runs our courses on a small, banked, oval track (plus the infield pit lanes). On rainy days, even we stay off the banking. Because wet track + banked corners + concrete walls = a very bad day.

Wouldn’t be surprised if he can still do one-handed push-ups.

Gee, thanks.

Probably the only Ferrari in the world with a Jesus fish on it. Probably. Hopefully.

As for the Nimitz herself, she couldn’t have been around in 1942

I know, right? I had to hoist the Jolly Roger.

The point is that it’s old. And I didn’t know it was still around. Now I do. Glad to hear that you’re more well-versed in the current state of our fleet than I am. Also there was this movie where it went back in time. It was awesome. Kirk Douglas was in it, who is a person that I also recently found out is still…

Wow, I didn’t realize the Nimitz was still operational. I mean, it’s been around since, what, roughly 1942?

I drive around with numbers and contingency stickers all over my car. It gets noticed, just like this does. You can indeed cut people off if you want, but you had better watch your ass around cops. Because they see you, too. In fact, driving a car decorated up like that means you might as well have a giant bullseye…

I have a double-diagonal (Hard Dog HCHT). Not sure if that makes it more or less difficult. Maybe try reaching under the diagonal instead of over it. You really only need to lift the back a small amount, just enough to get it started so you can grab it with the other hand.

Sure you can! I can do it, even with a bad shoulder. Right hand: grab the center handle and pull up as much as you can. While holding that up, reach your left arm around the outside of the bar and grab the edge of the top. Pull up and ta da! Let me know how it goes...

That poor tree.

Aston Martin also once experimented with producing dog toys. Very expensive dog toys. They did not have the same kind of success as VW/Kong.
