Glen, before you go under....

I doubt you'd be exposed to many virus/malware. Keep doing what you do and I'm sure you'll continue with that 100% track record. In the rest of the world, however.

Good luck with the surgery and we'll see you on the flip-side!

I have a habit of watching for mistakes. It's fun.

He threw in the towel, didn't want to discuss it an further with someone so closed minded.

Hola, fellas. Have fun at the hospital, Glen. Ask to see the new hip parts before the operation. If they're painted red, they're probably from Motor Meister.

The dude trying to explain how to break into a car with a hammer was hysterical.

cheers!

i checked the video on FB. good stuff. i read something about studio time....


my shoulder is a bit sore.... that .308 of mine has a bit of a bite. i let a guy shoot it. after one shot, he didn't want to try it again.... he was shooting a .308, also. a remington 700 with a 20" barrel just doesn't have the same punch as mine with a 26" barrel.

I showed off the Formula Electric car to the EE guys today. I gave them a little drifting show and some full throttle bursts. They were impressed with how fast it was. Then I let them try it and they were like scared in a good way, even though they were scared to give it full throttle. I explained how it turns better/tighter with throttle. They went a little faster and had fun. One guy asked me what I was doing with the brake to get it to drift. I said "Brake?! I hit the throttle!". He was like . I mentioned how in a 911 if you lift you spin so throttle and countersteer are your friend. Same way in karts.

I think they are hooked.
