Motorcycle riding should be encouraged. We have a serious organ shortage.

No matter how good a rider you are, it does not stop those driving multi ton cages around from being complete idiots.

Wear leather, spill without it, and you may not die, but you'll wish you had.

Most estimates put riding as being at least 15 times more lethal per passenger mile as driving.

Bell bought Western Electric in 1881 from Western Union, it did most of their manufacturing from then till 1995.

Western Electric gear is quite collectible. As much of their gear was built to be leased, it was built to very high standards to reduce servicing requirements.

Switzerland many thousands of select fire weapons distributed throughout the country, but we dont hear about such shenanigans there. Its about the attitude.

Small weapon means more recoil, not less. Recoil is in inverse proportion to weight. M16 and friends are about the easiest to handle common select fire weapon.

I am opposed to coddling children, but that was stupid. Bear in mind in another eight years that child could have been legally handling a 1,000,000 joule projectile.

I would love to will my skull as part of my estate, and explicitly allow its use as paraphernalia.

No way that place is worth the tax burden. Its stripped, not habitable, and in one of the USA most dangerous neighborhoods.

Makes me want to bust out the BB guy right now. I so enjoyed the power out.

Article fails to instruct on how one breaks into the cockpit to get at those unmanned controls.

The Great Escape?

Which way to Shelbyville?

"Their parents must have had some say on what their kids are doing"

Eating?
And no, not necessarily. See also: child soldier.

You may as well blame Cecil Rhodes, for all that good it will do.

Black > pink, it holds onto the bogomips better.

What I mean to say is said reserve is getting dipped into more. Not that theres any need for hysterics, though.

A 777 isn’t your family minivan; it’s not ’safer’ or ‘better’ with a full fuel tank than an empty one;

Assuming the empty part of the gas tank isnt filled with oxygen now anyhow... Not that that risk is all that high relative to driving to the airport.

There is no doubt they are pushing the reserve margin harder than they used to.

I loved that thing. No one wanted to borrow it.

I love the ladder.
