Probably the 90 km/h asphalt belt sander underneath him

Uncontested movie of the Year, hands down. The man who played Hans Landa is going to receive many an award. I think some people might be under the impression that this movie is nothing more than two and a half hours of German slauhtering mayhem. In reality, that was hardly the point of the movie - t...

There is a similar program in Waterloo.

No opinion or experience with them though.

SuperchargedBS, is that you?

I lived in West Africa for a couple of years when I was a kid around 6 or 7, its still one of the most memorable parts of my life. I'd love to go and fly somewhere like Tanzania for a couple of years after finishing my license. I'd imagine securing a job and making all your arrangements half way acr...

This asshole is of the same kind whom sue good samaritans that have attempt to save their lives, in good faith, but break a couple of bones in process. It's this type of thing that makes people scared to help others. Nobody is entitled to search and rescue service - he should be happy they even made...

Sound like there are survivors!

This is in totally bad taste but I heard it today: In his will, MJ asked to be made into grocery bags because they are white, plastic and dangerous around small children. Seriously, he was the greatest performer back in the 70's and 80's. "People say Michael Jackson died in the emergency ward from ...

ask around and see how many people with "just" a degree (as opposed to masters or phd) are getting jobs right now. a degree doesnt get you all that much any more. That very much depends on what type of bachelors degree you are talking about. The above holds true primarily for arts / B.Sc. degrees, ...

I hope I don't get ridiculed over this, and I hope I don't sound like an idiot. I know there is more to flying an airplane than steering. I'm going through the online ppl at Harv's Air, granted I've just started in the last few weeks, but a lot of this stuff seems like they are teaching how to answ...

Currently using this one myself. No complaints so far.

Pizza, the principle bachelor foodstuff. Plenty of it. Preferably Dominos.

Well, I'm at the very bottom of the ladder. If I had to chose, I'd like to one day fly something like a dash 8 or a corporate jet. For some reason, the big jets, while I wouldn't mind flying one, aren't my end all goal or aspiration. One of my drives is to provide a service to people, so I'd be very...

I know storing too much porn on a lap top can ruin it. Something about moisture seeping into the keyboard...... Heheh, I bet the warranty department loves you Doc. No Boing Boy, FSX did not and will not ruin your laptop or give it viruses. It might slow down your computer while it's running , and a...

The Q400 seems to have pretty bad luck with its landing gear..

That's the first time in my 10 years reading this site that anyone has ever gone so far as to suggest a "FBO" will train to a higher standard than a college. This is hilarious to me on so many levels. First, a FBO is the place you go to get fuel, maybe make a meal out of their popcorn on a 3am medi...

Great clip, thanks for posting that.

"Willy, E.. bang" heheh

I still think that bio and synthetic fuels are the way to go.

It's funny how you will always find people that sympathize with drunk driving. We tend to sympathize for actions that reflect our own, as in doing so is to defend ones self by proxy. Really, is drunk driving any more of a "youthful mistake" than attempted murder? Personally I see it as beyond irresp...
