Hey, a Christopher Reeve-like Superman-emblem. I’d rather watch a movie of this than any grimdark Zack Snyder version any day.

Where’s District 12? Did the Coast Guard intentionally avoid using that number because of the Hunger Games or is it Guam or something?

The driver should have put a “Victory Parade” sign on his or her car like the guy in the Los Angeles area put on his Mustang in last week’s super-slow car chase.

“Another Google maps measurement shows that he had roughly 120 meters until the bus stop booth that the Libyans smash into.”

F355 Challenge is still my favourite racing game on the Dreamcast and PS2. Sure it’s only got one car, but one single Ferrari is still one more Ferrari than Gran Turismo 3 or 4 had on the PS2, and I rather like the focus of a single-car racing game, where they don’t have to make any compromises to the car’s…

I was researching AMC Pacer prices yesterday and this one caught my eye.

Should read, "the weird ways of Canadian driving", but close enough.

Eh, I'm just getting a bunch of "This video is not available" error messages. Guess whoever's in charge of the Youtube account blocked views for the time being.

I know, that's why I added "assuming that only a single nuke would be used in Toronto", which probably isn't a realistic scenario.

I actually used Nukemap the other day to see whether the "Toronto Tunnel" is in a position where it could have been used as a bunker in the event of a 1.2 megaton air burst over downtown Toronto (ground zero is City Hall).

Oh yeah, there are several "Winter Warrior" Porsche 944's here in Ottawa.

Maybe I'm wrong, but I thought that, if a tactical nuke exploded, even a low-yield one, you probably wouldn't be able to film it at a reasonably-close (but survivable) distance with a digital camera anyway because of the EMP effect, and I don't think any of those videos above were made with analog film.

I like the hassle and clutter of CDs everywhere though. ;-)

Is that easier than listening to a physical CD in a CD player?

"Helsinki is Europe's northernmost capital"

The Hyundai Pony. I believe they were never sold in the United States because of emission standards, but, here in Canada, they were ubiquitous in the second half of the 1980s (my parents got one) but they seemed to disappear completely by the late 1990s, almost certainly rusty casualties of road salt.

You're assuming I still have a Discman...

Even as a die-hard physical media guy who only listens to music on CD (and I mean directly off CD, not ripping the tracks off the disk and putting the physical CD in storage), I'm really not bothered if most new cars will be sold without CD players, just so long as a CD player is still an option for those of us that…

If I could have any one of those cars, obviously, I'd want the 250 GT California, but if I had the money and was bidding, I'd probably settle for the Ferrari 400 GT, since I also have a thing for quirky-looking Ferraris and I prefer the 400 & 412 in blue or silver. (Car in Autostitch composite is a 412 I photographed…

If toy cars count, I'm hoping May Cheong (Maisto/Bburago), which recently got the exclusive worldwide diecast license for Ferrari, will sublicense Ferrari to Mattel, at least for regular 1/64 scale Hot Wheels (in addition to making their own Maisto and Bburago-branded Ferrari toys).
