Shit. Even if I had that kind of money, I damned sure wouldn't go to Hennessey. Fucker got caught cannibalizing factory parts off several customer cars to complete another one. I'd much rather go to Lingenfelter, and deal with a company with some business ethics. Oh, and get a better car, too...

Just a personal prejudice here; I HATE serrations. They're useful only for a few things, and they take up valuable cutting edge, and they're a huge pain in the butt to sharpen. If you want just about the ultimate blade, check out Boker Ceramics. Nothing like being able to shave the edge off your buddy's titanium pocket folder... http://www.boker.de/us/index.php?c=37,1,16&a=112040&p=&pp=0

Don't bother with any of the fancy shit out there. Get a good simple folder with a thumb-opener. Gerber is damn good stuff, just make sure you get the better of the two steels they offer. This one has everything you asked for though, drop point, spring assist, thumb stud. http://www.rockynational.com/2302_22-07162_Gerber_Fast_Draw_Spring_Assisted_Fine_Edge.html

Whatever you get, DO NOT get a .45GAP. Stick with .45ACP. GAP is a solution to a problem that doesn't exist.

Granted, you're right about the actual feces-flingers being just a little whackier than the rest, but still, every time it makes the news, the rest of them stand up and cheer. So fuck the lot of em.

If you want a dog that has very few worries about health or behavior, get a Border Collie. They're easily in the top three smartest dog breeds, have tons of energy, are incredible with kids, can be trained to do damn near anything, and have amazing patience. The only drawback to BCs is that you HAVE to exercise them. They have BOUNDLESS energy, and if they don't get regular exercise, they can become destructive. I've been debating getting a dog for the past few months, but the breed was never in question, it'll be a BC.

So, how many tits do they have?

So, throwing paint, flour, urine, etc on people wearing fur didn't snag your attention?

PETA went too far about three days after they were founded. You're surprised by this PARTICULAR act of stupidity?

What the FUCK did he actually say? The guy talks like Paul writes.

Actually, it's a Japanese Maple leaf. Common as hell as a decorative tree. Five lobed leaf, almost looks like separate leaflets, except that there is leaf surface surrounding the join in the center. Sometimes has two extra lobes. They come in a wide range of green and red. http://69.90.174.249/photos/display_pic_with_logo/89772/89772,1177916426,1.jpg Here's your Buckeye leaf, notice that the leaflets are only connected by stems, not leaf surface. http://www.uwgb.edu/biodiversity/herbarium/trees/aesgla_leaf02_web400gf.jpg

Broken record. I'm done listening.

Remember, this is the same country where a 6-year old got suspended for hugging his teacher...

"Old people"? Dude, it's usually the mid-level management types who dominate HOAs. That's why HOA's are so petty. They're ruled over by people who have advanced as far in life as they're going to, know it, hate it, and are determine that if they can't advance their career, they'll expand their control in their private lives...

A "luxury" truck generally refers to a large, truck-LIKE vehicle that cannot actually perform any of the useful activities occasionally required of a real truck. My minimum requirements to define a "real" truck are; towing a trailer of more than 6,000lbs, and carrying at least one pallet's worth of concrete block on-board. In the case of a 4WD, it also has to be able to make it's way through terrain equivalent to a farm field while carrying at least half of that load. The Avalanche just meets those requirements, so I wouldn't call it a luxury truck. The Ridgeline blows it on all counts, however, and is firmly in "luxury" territory.

So, they're claiming LESS risk of hydroplaning because of the extra tires? Where did these idiots go to school? More tires=more contact patch for the same weight=lower ground loading=more hydroplaning risk.

Oh, BTW, my car runs past 55 in FIRST GEAR.

Wow, just go right ahead and prove you don't know SHIT about my car. On a track, with VHT down, I have trouble launching. Cold, salted roads? Fucking forget it, traction and my car won't be found in the same state until March.

Those cubs were confused as hell! Try that more than once with an adult tiger, though, and he's catshit.

They are. Like Avenger said, most of the floor space in the city is vacant. But in spite of the fact that their economy has gone stagnant, there's still a shit-ton of oil money there. It's just not moving around. So, the Sheiks are still building their toys. They're probably hoping that once this recession/depression blows over that business will pick up again. I think they're in for a shock though. I don't think Dubai is ever going to recover fully. The super-rich are the only ones who can afford to stay there, and the super-rich are fickle motherfuckers. The novelty of Dubai has worn off. They can't downscale to catering to the merely wealthy, and they have no attractions geared to the middle-class. Dubai is a totally artificial tourist attraction, like Las Vegas. They built a city in a desert where there are no natural draws for tourists. Las Vegas survives because of the party atmosphere that Dubai's cultural laws make almost impossible. Sure, Dubai has a beach, but a beach palls as fast as a tourist sunburns. Other than that, they have...sand. Even the hotels and towers, as extraordinary as they are, can only hold someone's attention for a day or two. Dubai is fucked. It's probably destined to become the world's most expensive ghost town.

Oh, for fuck's sake. I get pissed off enough to tell him off, and he's been banned AGAIN? WTF?

Oh, BTW, a "Vodka Martini, shaken, not stirred" is SISSY drink. Shaking breaks up the ice, causing it to melt faster, watering down the drink. Always stir.

Wait, who is it with the high BP? I think most of us thought it was you...

Jeez, I just got this image of that little test-tube thing they use swelling up like a balloon and exploding....
