Guess who's back, back again?

Another week down, I can't believe there's only like 3 weeks until Thanksgiving. Don't they make a tofu turkey? I'll have to check that out.....Anyway, not much going on lately here in the Great Midwest, if you can believe that. Oh I did learn that when an 800 pound piece of telephone equipment falls towards me, it takes me about 3 seconds of holding it up to realize I'm not gonna be able to stop it. How do I continue to get roped into moving ultra-heavy objects?

On a different note, here's a pic of the new Bugatti Veyron:


0-255 mph in 55 seconds, and 1000 hp if anybody has a spare $1.25 million laying around. There's a pretty good article about it in the new Automobile magazine, where they drive one on the Autobahn. Driving that fast means you're covering like 367 feet per second, which is just insane. I can't imagine going that fast in a car, or even being passed by a car going that fast. Clearly drivers there are more friendly than here, because the last time I was involved in a high speed passing situation (as a passenger in a certain RSX), this van pulling a trailer whipped over into the left hand lane for no reason, other than to be a jerk and slow us down. I believe D-Noc had to change his pants after that one.

I guess that's about it for now, I'm off to work. Probably have to go move some more insanely heavy crap for no reason, because that's apparently what I do.

tell me more about this high speed passing with you a certain D-Noc.. hmmmmmm... ; )

Still waiting on more vic pics. i do appreciate the nasty gross floorboard but come on..you can do better than that.

i think you should attempt to juggle the heavy items at work. at least make it interesting.

All I'm saying is that someone, (who may or may not work at Honda), was showing d-noc and myself his new RSX, when it all went down.

I would have to make progress with the civic if I'm gonna post any pics of it, and that really hasn't happened lately. But it will, eventually.

And if I'm gonna juggle anything around the office, it's gonna be flaming chainsaws.
