Zebra stripes never struck me as being particularly good city-car camouflage.

"Also ran" isn't usually too impressive in race results, but at LeMans it means a lot just to have qualified.

And that right there is what makes it so infuriating for those of us who try to dig deep enough so we understand what might be going to happen...go wrong...and almost impossible for the TLDR crowd who believe in the concept of "tribal knowledge" as it applies to most of the interdwerbs. The fact is that there are relatively few people who actually know what they're talking about, but no shortage of folks who have zero clue but spout off like experts at every opportunity...and no shortage of people who believe 'em.

I know what you mean, but in the wild I wouldn't think much of my chances trying to stop a charging bull elephant with a scattergun.

Kits assembled by the ten-thumbed are often referred to as "shelf models".

Or the 427 cu.in. smallblock Chebby... ...and the 427 cu.in. LS Chebby...which comes in several flavors.

"There are none so blind as those who will not see"...and you may as well try to have a rational conversation with broccoli. No, these are not green brains.

Smart alecks are sometimes just annoying little zeros, and sometimes they're intelligent, perceptive individuals who see through all the smoke and mirrors but have poor social skills.

Attending to exercise, business responsibilities, and thinking critically every day will make a man healthy, wealthy, and wise.

You know brake cleaner spray will get rid of those, right?

Seasons me burgers with garlic, onions, and cracked pepper does I.

Musta been long ago. Nobody's 400 pounds.

I'm quitting the "just in time" parts ordering, and getting everything coming a couple weeks before I can possibly need it. I'm down to small stuff on both projects, so having funds tied up isn't the annoyance it was earlier. It was never a big deal anyway, but it's as nerve-grating to me as fingernails on a chalkboard to have stuff twisting in the wind, with me being helpless to do anything about it.
