Not much of a sailor are you.

"Several occasions?" You are referring to the Liberty tragedy? Oh well. When the US population is over 20% Muslim, like Israel, and when the US has two official languages, Hebrew and Arabic, like Israel, you can move to any of Israel's neighboring countries (where the Jews have been expelled or killed) and speak to…
Some things need to be blurred out...
I bet you've never been there. I bet you just said "Of course: I'll never go!" I bet you watch CNN, you're a registered Democrat, atheist, and can't name more than 2 of the 150 or so acknowledged international Islamic terror attacks in 2014 alone, so far. I bet you've been to a few countries the US, Canada, England…
To so many Poles, Kosciuszko, and though by choice they know nothing of the Jews that once made Poland more than a wasteland, the sight of a Jordanian-born "Palestinian" at a checkpoint makes them weep, the sight of Israeli childrens' blood and guts all over the inside of a bus makes them shrug. And you? The thought…
I was at the helm of a racing sailboat in the Eastern Mediterranean once and noticed the boat had a funny "feel," as if it were in a peculiar current. A short discussion with the Israeli owner revealed we had an Israeli submarine right under us - RIGHT - under us, listening, training, whatever. When your neighbors -…
What does this matter? Like a Soviet, would you rather the "rich" retire in shame, have his assets seized, or or be punished? He is "complaining on a public forum" because it is interesting to us and he knows it.
Within, elves with back problems ferry a very real, very Old Man Emu to and fro.
Thanks for teaching me about values, family, balls, and materialism. I am a lifelong Jag and M3 driver. PS talk to your Dad if you're not a douche. There's not so much time. Love, an American who will now be looking to buy a Corvette. Hey - I like the sound of that!
But... It's amazing. Aliens came to Earth in 1989 to drink Pepsi and give us this car. Can we worship them? My goodness... It IS a four door! LOOK AT IT! Where are the aliens? How can we serve them? What is their FAX number?
My very British, very engineer grandfather's bit of humor on the car:
You touch on a key cultural phenomenon. When I first lived and worked in New York I was so poor I lived (slept, ate) in an old Ford Escort. To this day I look at cars and wonder if they're "liveable," but now I own many cars, houses, boats, etc. I rose from poverty because I worked for, and continue to work for,…
How many decisions do you/we make every day that abet or support the growing Police State? Not long ago I read an automotive piece called "MEMO FROM THE DEPARTMENT OF HORSES" which brilliantly laid out how we have traded liberty for security, in thought, word, and deed. It is worth a read.
This awesome tribute comes as no surprise: I run a small ad agency and fly all over the world, but Southwest Airlines is the ONLY airline I'm always thrilled to have a chance to fly... And I say it! The clearest, no-nonsense policies, the most reliable service, and - best of all - the nicest, friendliest, funniest,…
"Unresolved" space? Jeez, it's not an Avanti. It's "negative space," and I love it!
That's pretty awesome, if you're single....
Jalopniks might greenly (verdantly?) admire the man. Most important, we have a profound respect and affection for Mr. Leno's tastes, work, and willingness to share his fortune. To be sure, only one Hollywood star has permitted me to drive, albeit vicariously and in two dimensions, a Duesenberg! Surely our Jay is a…
I went to boarding school (and roomed, in IV form) with a kid whose Dad was (perhaps the President of) International Watch Company, that marque. He was always getting "IWC" watches in the mail and I thought it such a dumb name they couldn't possibly be valuable or desirable. "Dad sent me another watch. Want it?" "No,…
What do you drive?
