Someone who is good at this sort of thing should make a Majel Barrett voice for a GPS.
Watched Clue last night after hearing of Martin Mull's passing. I have seen that movie dozens of times, and last night noticed a mistake for the first time. During the first ending, when Miss Scarlet is waving the revolver around, if you look closely, you can see there are at least two rounds left.
I bought a 2011 C63 AMG a year or so ago. The idea is to have it as a fun weekend car which my son could also use as long as he keep his college grades over 3.5. I really love that car, even though the Mercedes performance community doesn't really seem like "my type" of people.
But here's where it gets scary: Now I'm looking at old Mercedes as project cars. Even an early 70s 450 SL. If that isn't signs of aging, I don't know what is!
After witnessing three blown stop signs and a red light run through in ONE trip across town, I am beginning to see the appeal of living at the end of a couple miles' worth of dirt road.
Eternal stationery
At some point I must have slowed down using pencils and staples because I have a box of staples and 5 packs of .5mm pencil refills that have been in my desk for about 3 decades.
Time dilation....
If we percieve the universe as four dimensions, three spatial dimensions and a time dimension, we are always traveling at the same speed. As we speed up in the three spatial dimensions, we slow down in the time dimension. All four must always add up to the speed of causality.
So THAT'S where time dilation comes from...
I'm reasonably certain that I have way more fun with my $300 Ram 50 mini truck than the people that buy any type of high-end sports car to inform the world of their status.
It's kinda sad...
It's kind of tough to stay sad when a kindergartner shouts, "let's find some more Tom T. Hall songs!"
How come Jaguar wasn't called Lion ?
It's just as good a cat, the founder is named Lyons, and it's on the royal coat of arms.
It's super weird how in Greek history and literature, everyone has names like Odysseus, Perseus, Theseus, Heracles, Leonidas, Sokrates, Diogenes, Demosthenes, etc.
And then there's just a dude named Jason.

Yup. We are always moving at the speed of light. Just... mostly through time.
Pulled a cruise control unit with a cable off the challenge project. I bet it could be used to control some active aero, by having it change a spoiler/wing angle under braking.

Speed of causality is more mind boggling. The speed of light is what it is because causality can't allow it to go faster.
Like, if the Sun stopped existing this moment, the Earth would keep orbiting around where it used to be for eight or so minutes, because causality doesn't happen any faster than that.

A NASCAR team borrowed the power lock mechanism off of one of their street cars for an impromptu active aero mechanism.
They took it off when it broke during a pit stop during testing and the spoiler went full flat as they were going back on track. Oops, hope nobody saw that!
