Yes, I'm surprised that there isn't a redrocket smiley yet. Something with a picture of a red rocket ship with a blurb coming out of it.

I love Roadrunner when I need to download 1GB or larger files fast. Sometimes, for no apparent reason, my computers accidentally switch to the neighbors connection for a brief time. Coincidentally, I realize that they have switched, after I finish downloading the huge files.

The first thing that came to mind when she mentioned unicorns floating was Charlie the Unicorn. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QFCSXr6qnv4

I had the same problem with centurylink last year. It was unacceptably slow. Finally after calling multiple times, resetting the modem countless times, and generally harassing them every other day for a week, they sent someone out. Magically, after that day it's been good since. The best part about DSL in my case is how consistent the speed is.

My first real motorcycle was a 1996 Katana 600. I got it mainly to save wear/tear on the car, and of course save money on gas, because it was 2008.

College memories.

But then that dude is helping him pick the crap up. I'm sure there's a lot of history with those two.

Yeah, they wish they were the ones with the balls to walk around the office destroying shit with an axe. Reminded me of that Quiet Man movie. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WNig9W51KXo

Good find.

This was my first track day and it was awesome! I am definitely looking forward to the next. I threw on the saddlebags and rode home after and it only took an hour and a half to get home. This was interesting, because it took me about two and a half hours to get there.

It looks cool and all, but the cars blowing up at the end seemed a little excessive. The horse sliding was awesome!

Yeah, good thing I do my part in helping the environment by biking to work.

situations like this is when experience and intuition pay off

We need a new smily with an intense double rainbow.

Their beards will get stuck in the belts!

I don't have a high performance car, so I've never experienced braking in a car like on my bikes. I can definitely say that in general I agree that normal bikes can stop way faster than normal cars. The difference becomes more apparent as speed increases. I'm guessing that if the car is a high performance car than the difference becomes negligible.
