  2. i'd have to say mine doesn't, at least until you know me, or better yet, until i know you. i have (i've been told) an odd sense of humour that mostly doesn't translate well online. the few folks from here that i've met probably didn't think i was very interesting because i didn't say much. i'm also not very outgoing when i'm in a new place with new people. hell, i was at the cross keys season opener, but wasn't in any of the pics! i was there, i swear i was. given a chance to hang out, share beers and chat and i open up more, and can act like myself.

    F1 vs. Human

    okay, i'll have a theoretical go at it. thecars have enough downforce that the can a) hold themselves to a ceiling at 120mph and b) suck up manhole covers on street courses. i heard they have to weld any manhole covers along the route down to prevent this. that said, if you were laying in a shallow hole the size of your body (like cartoon characters when they fall off cliffs), you would probably get pulled out of it, like the manhole covers. it might not lift you completely, but it would probably be enough to suck up an arm or leg. i figure you would get caught on something and rolled into a large, wet ball of roadkill, and the car would end up out of control. in your ditch scenario, i have no idea, but i would guess you'd be fine, since there was so much air under the car already, it would never develop enough downforce to move you. if you find someone to test the theory, let us know how it works out.

  8. we have the same thing here. the bar we (a bunch of skydivers) go to every tuesday night used to allow smoking. now they don't. we talked to the bartender about it and he said that initially, smokers stopped coming, but ex-patrons that left because of the smoke started coming back, then the smokers came back as well, they just had to step outside to have a butt. it'll work out.

  11. the most important long-distance drivine tip ever: gatorade is your friend. it won't keep you awake, but you won't have to stop to pee every two hours. you'll make much better time by driving steady than driving fast. every pee break is going to cost you about 15 minutes on the road.

  12. it's here! actually, i picked it up in cross keys last weekend, but didn't get it put together until today. so, here i sit in lebanon maine with a shiney new rig, and it's pissing down rain. i think i'm going to start charging a fee to not show up at a boogie. anywho, here it is!

  19. just made it home! had a blast, even though the weather sucked. didn't meet too many dz.com people, actually, the only dz.commers i met (that i actually knew were dz.commers) were amanduh and guido. jumped with guido a couple of times. we're considering making him an honerary canuck. the meeting is next week. due to several counts of stupidity on my part, my new rig didn't get put together, but it did finally all show up and it rocks!. stops by the cops:1 (let me go) searches by customs:1 (didn't find anything 'cuz there was nothing to find. beers drunk: several.... and then a few. jumps made: 3. damn weather. dz.commers met:2 "Hang on a sec, the young'uns are throwin' beer cans at a golf cart."

  21. check my sig line! i've been a douglas adams fan since about '84 when i read the first book. i don't expect the movie to follow the book exactly, i'm just hoping it doesn't lose the 'brit wit' in the translation to the big screen. if they don't screw it up too badly it has the potential to become the 'new' holy grail.
