And let’s not forget the tire tread at Silverstone a few years ago coming down on top Alonso.

Massa took a spring to the head, the year that the tires kept blowing up the tread from a tire came down on Alonso’s car at Silverstone, Alonso had Kimi’s car ride up on top of his 2 years ago and Grosjean a couple of years before that.

My son wrote a song a few years ago that he was very pleased with and popular with his friends and band mates.

Brown must be an immortal or something. I'm 52 and he's been the gov of CA damn near my whole life it seems.

Think about a 100' ball of twine that fits neatly in your hand. Then think about it stretched out to its full length.

There’s somebody in one of the other buildings where I work who has a Ford sedan with that sort of livery. Not sure if he did himself or if it’s some special edition.

Yes, you are.

WEC is certainly the more interesting series right now, but the length of races makes them viewer unfriendly.

Not much going on in NC right now on the F1 side. They'll be working out of the Banbury facility that they bought when Marussia went tits up for most of the season.

I don't remember what the exact rules were but that was a horrible system. Cars just circulating for 15-20 minutes burning off fuel before going for their qualm laps. Ugh.

Some guy at work had taken to parking his Miata in a sort of notch in the curbing that is big enough for his car but not really a parking space.

That guitar is like the bastard child of a Fender Broadcaster and a Gibson Les Paul Jr.

I had a female Cardinal swoop in front of me yesterday. She came so close to the windshield that I involuntarily ducked.

Is there any other kind?

It’s ok to be a little confused because the Westpoint sports teams go by Black Knights too.

Gene is a Californian. Although I've lived in Maryland for quite a long time, as a native SoCal guy I'd like to see the Bear Republic flag in the car in addition to the American flag.

I can see 2 pipes for the waste gate exhaust, and some little winglets on top of the air box that the Ferrari also has.

While most of your post is dead on, there is a hard limit on fuel flow rate in F1 at 100 kilo/hr monitored by a spec sensor.

I'm gonna live forever!

What is up with that helicopter? It looks like the shaft for the main rotor passes through the cabin.
