Had my father managed to get through his treatments, he would be turning 60 today.

When life gives you lemons, put a couple of them in a sock and whoop life until it gives you something better.


When life gives you lemons, plant the seeds and grow an orchard.

When life gives you lemons, get a refund. They have lemon laws you know.

i fought the lemons but the lemons won ;)


I fought Le Mans but Circuit de la Sarthe won.

What does an apex predator eat?


Generally, whatever it likes.

I sometimes try to imagine our world as it would be if Theia had not collided with Gaia.

Would there be a moon? Would there be tides? Would aluminum be the heaviest metal available for mining? Would there be a magnetic field and aurorae? Would there even be life; and if so, what would it look like?

What if ... ?

That's an interesting speculation to ponder..

Humans have collectively spent 6 million years playing "World of Warcraft". That's more time than we have existed as a species separate from chimpanzees.

i wish, really wish, in the interest of automotive efficiency, that Toyota would apply the Lexus treatment [or something akin to Buick's "quiet tuning"] to their Scion IQ subcompact coupe. the technology is relatively straightforward to turn that car into something a LOT nicer to drive, adding the stuff to it that's routinely used in larger cars-

*asphalt shingles bonded inside the wheel wells, exterior door panels/undercarriage/firewall/ceiling [to dampen resonances and block noise]
*hydro-elastic bushing-isolated front and rear subframes [blocks NVH]
*independent rear suspension [improved handling and ride/composure]
*sophisticated motor mounts [absorbs engine NVH]
*triple door seals [wind and road noise suppression]
*laminated extra-thick window glass [wind noise suppression]
*electronic noise cancellation [cancels out what noise passes by all that other stuff]
*electronic suspension damping [improve ride and handling, reduce NVH]
*electronic valve train and Ram air induction [improved horsepower and torque]
*mild hybrid technology to improve low-end torque [off the line launch speed]
*improved multi-adjustable orthopedic seats [the base seats are torture on long drives]
*improved interior decoration, the standard monochrome gray is a big YAWN.

they could turn that car into something a mass market would love to drive if they did all those things.

There's not a cloud in the sky. Too bad I have a toothache.
