Yeah, she's cute as hell. I would imagine (from what I remember) that Corvette Summer is like Xanadu, Flash Gordon, Labyrinth, Rocky Horror...requires a two drink minimum. Watch it buzzed and mostly enjoy it for the music as soundtracks were so enjoyable in those days.

Thread has me thinking about the only thing I miss about my pre-16 year-old childhood...riding my bicycle. Especially the summers, beating my parents home after having ridden with the neighborhood kids many miles further than we were supposed to. My legs burned and felt like jello after hauling ass home. I lived really close to the Mississippi River and we normally rode south along the river road or levee until we ran out of time. We were all riding single-speed BMX-style bikes, not made for distance.

No wonder I was such a skinny kid, same as my older brother and sister who somehow remained skinny.

OG's bikes avec CIB (Combat Infantryman's Badge) wins the thread.

It occurred to me that we have a car thread without Raw Kryptonite and Moses. Hope they're doing well.

PRIUS DRIVER THROWS METAL AT MY MCLAREN AT 90 MPH..

EDIT: I've personally never had an issue with a Prius driver, but I don't recognize cars today like I used to (total lack of interest).

As I mention before. My Prius owning friend drives like poop. I also seen Prius on the road that drives like poop. The car being quiet and not able to hear the sound of the engine causes stupidity in the driver?

My sister had a Prius and loved it until she was rear-ended on a freeway by a much bigger vehicle. She switched to a Rav4. Crumple-zones and airbags are great and all, but in the end, physics will be physics.

In general, though, I haven’t had any trouble with Prius drivers (at least none that I’ve noticed), and I’m actually really grateful for the global expansion of hybrids and EVs. When a vehicle’s total carbon footprint is examined closely, hybrids and EVs are not nearly as much better than ICE cars as most EV proponents like to boast (obviously the footprint depends of what is producing the electricity being used; in, say, England, the improvement is spectacular; in areas that still depend primarily on coal to power the grid, the pollution is mostly just displaced from the car to the coal plant). But over time, the change to hybrids and EVs really will make a significant difference. I’m good with that.

At least I’m good with it as long as the government doesn’t prohibit the use of ICE cars altogether (not just the sale of such cars, but their use). Unfortunately, my guess is that that will happen sooner than we may want to admit. Probably within my lifetime. Until then, I’ll wave cheerfully at my friends who drive EVs. And I’ll drive a Type R or an S2000 myself smile

and they'll be driving coal gas cars in China to/from their coal powered life, while our enlightened overlords write regulations from their Gulfstream X's on why we should drive garbage to save the planet.

Sorry, just doesn't make sense, never has.

Now how do I overlay a gun reticle on video...easily...

I would have figured that such capabilities were years away...



Gee, I wonder if that could be applied to fighter design and manufacture?
