Ben, can you make the front page with Myspace animated glitter gifs too. i'm not saying change the ORDN logo, just make it more sparkly.

Make the poll public so we can see who the uptight rubberneckers are that can't figure out how to not use a mouse...

While I was sucking off Obama the other day, I noted a hint of VOCs in his ejaculate. When I mentioned it to him, he said he's been around a lot of paint booths lately trying to understand the environmental repercussions of paint. Says it kills a lot of brain cells. If its bad for Obama's baby goo, then it's bad for you too.

You should PM Jagr, I know he was looking for a mattress. I guess his old one has a huge 'fuck ditch' in it. I don't think he'd have to worry about that with a waterbed. Though he might poke a leak in it.

Holy hell... WTF DON'T you do or have done? Why don't you just list those? Sounds like it'd be a shorter list...

Well f*(k a duck... I thought you were still sleeping or something BPT related. What was Jinx riding? That's an awful large scooter to be doing 130+...

Your number change?

Don't remind me. I was disappointed I moved furniture around all afternoon instead of riding. Someone didn't text me back and I went ahead and started on the 'honey-do' list.

fail.

He did all that knowing you owned a Harley? Wow. He really must be charitable

Eww...

jbot can fap to that.

I think it's funny how 4chan pwns people for trolling, when they're the biggest trolls known on the net. It's kinda like, "I can pick on my brother because he's my brother, but YOU can't". Either way, it seems that 4chan doesn't really lash out unless the people deserve it. It's one thing to troll on your own corner of the internet -- you know what you're getting into when you step into the lions den, but for these assclowns to do it publicly on the news -- I expect nothing less.

Any updates on the RIDE?

Private Insurance FTMFW! Sorry to hear about your plight dude.

Must...resist...urge.... to get on 4chan to keep updated.

Where are you and jinx heading? Anywhere new? Or same ol' same ol'? This late in the season, I dunno if I should be trying to follow Jinx ANYWHERE...

Your date took you to a strip club? Fancy, huh... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QD6qCIHT0Ro Did he sing that to you at the end of the night too? Smooooooth....

NAFTA only causes jobs to be shipped to Mexico or Canada... irrelevant to jobs going to Japan where they have universal healthcare so Suzuki, Honda, Kawasaki, Yamaha and the like don't have to foot the healthcare bills for their employees.

This pretty much captures the cultural differences. Yes, the Japanese can get repeatable and reliable processes because they document and specify everything -- they invest the money upfront in planning to avoid the costs of poor quality later where possible. Americans are skilled tradesmen... for stuff that is hard to measure or document, we have guys that "just know" how to finesse parts and make things work, problem is -- it's not repeatable. This is somewhat how the Italians (Ducati, Ferrari, etc) do things as well. It's not engineering per se, it's art and craftsmanship. Quality and process control are second thoughts.* *None of that verbiage above is meant to represent "hard and fast" stereotypes of cultures. A lot of this work is becoming like a hybrid form of manufacturing culture where everyone is beginning to realize the benefits and drawbacks of the Japanese, American, and European methodologies.

Can you post the sources just for all our edification?

tempting

You're right, presently... but that's why they used to be here, tariffs/taxes aren't applicable if you assemble them here. I guess I hear the argument all the time from Toyota and Honda owners that their car was "built in the US" using US parts, which doesn't really tell the whole picture. Yea, they're built in the US, with "US" suppliers -- basically all Japanese suppliers that put sister manufacturing plants near the Toyota "campus" because of how their supply chain is structured. To argue manufacturing and part content origins really doesn't tell the entire story -- that's all my point was. It's economics and business structure that dictate where and how items are sourced, but you still have to follow where the profits/revenue go. I haven't researched it, but I think you'll find that the difference is the type of workers employed by an American vs. Japanese company on US soil. American companies employ a lot more white collar US workers than their Japanese counterparts since most of the white collar work is done overseas. Japanese companies just need a few US white collars workers to supervise the blue collars to the overseas "marching orders".
