  1. Hmmm, what could possibly go wrong?
  2. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oM49-q5kSZ4 Kawasaki Europe has launched a new retro motorcycle, the 2011 W800. I could rock out on this one! Retro isn't dead! more here http://www.ultimatemotorcycling.com/2011-kawasaki-w800-preview-video
  3. Seen them both. Meh. The new one is in 3-d and has some good effects but the plot needs a lot of help.
  4. $ vs players/collegiate rules. Is this about the $? Or is it about the $?
  5. Only 150 miles per charge. 2 hour charge time. Meh...
  6. From the article: Mission Motors rolled into the International Motorcycle Show with a gorgeous e-moto that looks like something you might see from Ducati. That trellis frame is super sexy, Marchesini wheels always look hot and the specs on this beast are impressive. “We are excited to announce the Mission R, our compact and powerful factory electric racebike,” founder Edward West said in a statement. “This bike represents the culmination of all the company’s learning in both electric powertrains and motorcycle engineering.” http://www.wired.com/autopia/2010/12/mission-r-electric-motorcycle/ The liquid-cooled AC induction motor is good for a claimed 141 horsepower and 115 foot-pounds of torque.
  7. Hookers don't charge you for sex, they charge you to go away after sex. Cab fare is cheap. Mother-in-laws are not. Why does divorce cost so much? Because it's worth it!
  8. Bump. Hmmm.... Are you going to bring any girl scouts?
  9. Want! WASHINGTON, Dec. 9 (UPI) – The U.S. Army is shipping new rifles to Afghanistan that will enable snipers to hit a target nearly 4,000 feet away, officials said. The XM2010 rifle can hit targets a quarter-mile farther away than the weapon currently in use, USA Today reported. Officials said the extra range is important because insurgents firing down from ridges and mountaintops take advantage of gravity, which helps their bullets travel beyond the range of Army snipers. “They’re not outgunning us, but they are putting our soldiers in a predicament where 800 meters (2,625 feet) may not be enough,” said Col. Douglas Tamilio, referring to the maximum range of the current M24 sniper rifle. “You want to give guys the capability to do those things they need to do at those ranges.” The new rifles also have a more powerful scope, and incorporate a muzzle flash device that dampens the noise and flash of a shot. The Army’s 2,500 snipers will start receiving the new weapons early next year. The current sniper rifle has been in service since 1988.

  13. Like you could actually stop yourself from jumping in at the slightest whiff of politics to prove your world view is right, just and proper and everybody else sucks. Please ad a graphic to prove it. :lol::lol::lol:
  14. I fear ice and I can see it in the parking lot, not today after all the rain yesterday.
