@TomPuss @JLZ666 That video reminds me of Mrs. Rat in "HER" SC430. Normally, she's a bit on the shy side. But she turns into a wild woman when she drops the top and hits the pedal. I enjoy riding beside her, but it's a little scary and I don't need the heated seat if you know what I mean. Wink, wink, nudge, nudge, say no more. But I'd never act on it. I can't compete with her love of that car while she's driving. And I've never tried. I'm just happy being in her top two loves. ha ha I think I'm in the top two?
Women and there toys... isn't it the men that are suppose to be car crazy? ha ha -
@kelani grrrrhhhh
I'm booted down to third (oh no)
And little opportunity to fling after tonight.
Girly lunch tomorrow, garden trail Saturday, power boat racing Sunday (as a spectator)
Have to try my best to keep up.... -
@fenikus Glad you liked them (those two cats are real thugs, aren't they, makes a change from cute fluffy ones :) Also good to hear you appreciaote d'Onofrio too
@rat So mrs @rat drives like this on the open road too, like in the vid? Unbelievable! But I guess the traffic cops will never catch her...
@kelani Hey *shivers* - that IS a weird story - thanks!
Now, one of you guys must know where "va va voom" comes from. . . Hint: Robert Aldrich movie, also very weird indeed! -
@Tompuss @hunnybunny paid you to keep me from flinging, didn't she? :p Hmm. film noir. The song came out in the early 1950s. I remember it charted on Billboard. How much further back are we talking here? :)
-
No @TomPuss. She doesn't use the top end thankfully. But she loves getting to her cruising speed very quickly. *and her cruising speed exceeds the speed limit*
If I hypothetically drove her car on Alligator Ally while vacationing in Florida? And again, if I had hypothetically tried to see what it could do on the top end. It might have reached 150mph before I got scared and backed off. Hypothetically, it has more giddy up than I could stand on a straight level road. Hypothetically, the ride gets smoother and handles better the faster you go. Hypothetically speaking.
Supposedly her car is electronically limited to 167mph. I'll never find out. Ha
Edit: Not hypothetically, that's the day I lost the keys locking us out of the car in the middle of nowhere in the rain. After waiting for a locksmith for two hours he couldn't break into the car. Good security system. ha ha We waited another two hours to have the car towed over 100 miles to the nearest town. Good times. -
Hey @Kelani, did you know that for one low price of $75, Eustace will give you an hour-long, horse-drawn carriage tour of Turtle Island? If I was living where you are, I'd do it in a heartbeat.

@Kelani, I like how Turtle Island FAQ gently tells people: no cell phones, you idiots! (and then they tell you not to smoke either for good measure):
Can I take pictures?
You are welcome to bring your camera and take a picture with Eustace and the buggy. Do consider though, a bumpy carriage ride on mountain trails may not be the most suitable condition for your cell phone. You may want to leave it, and any tobacco products in your parked vehicle. -
@fenikus yeah, I'm getting the jerky TT right now. Guess I should restart, but it's been giving me sooo many points. :P
I'd imagine with multiple videos, it'd just show a list. Makes me want to get PC video recording working right.
edit: No way that high score on TT #4 score is right, even with the one-in-a-million 1-birder. I see Inspectors @Bunny and @Bern are already on the case. -
@fenikus that particular shot, bomb went in that little U-shaped depression in the void next to the TNT. I also stopped manually detonating. All the way to the TNT did similar damage. The key for me was to fire shot 1 flat so it broke the bottom wooden block between all those boxes on the ground. That got me like 29-32k, and left the stones there to be sashed by shot 2 debris.

Sorry I haven't been in tonight :/"can't catch up. Having Pproblem with my tablet that's driving me crazy. I can't connect to the google play store:( I tried cotacting them and they actualy called me but 'mysteriously'got disconnected when i explained my trouble to 'Jose' :(
Then got a really nice email telling me to do a factory reset aha...ya like that's gonna help!!
Going flinging soory gotta get some sleep. -
@fenikus on the second shot, zoom in full and look at the lighter colored scenery where you'd pull back to aim. It look like the right half of a star (not estar). Aim so you see a sliver of that lighter color at Bomb bird's 4:00. By sliver, I mean just enough for you to see it. I could hit the sweet spot 90% of the time by using that reference.
Grrr 19 is being a PITA
{3 mins later}. Yay! -
Yeah, this is def a level to play zoomed in. I should also put my glasses on because I thought you wrote "silver" instead of "sliver". Obviously, that didn't make any sense ;-)
p.s. Slow down there, sparky. If you continue manufacturing points at this rate, no one is going to be able to catch you... -
There's also a pretty decent reference point for the first shot on TT 3. Zoomed in, line up Red so that the sling elastic looks just below horizontal. You'll see 3 specs of…pale blue (?) color in the background. The higher of his 2 hairs (?) should just about cover the lowest and smallest of the specs.

Hello @everyone,
Just a quick flyby to see how you're all doing. Sorry this is going to be shirt, as I must get to bed soon, eyelids are drooping, wanting to slam shut! Fighting this fatigue is near futile.
Loved that video of the ZR1! Kinda reminds me of the Toyota Supra Turbo I had, in-line 6, intercooled, 5-spd manual, 2.8 liter and 230 horses, that baby looked fast just standing still! Back then it was expensive at $23K US, but I didn't care. Boy I sure miss that car!
OB, a tall glass of strawberry lemonade please. It's after midnight here, and temperature says it's still 81F! Heatwave started yesterday, and it's miserable! It's going to be hotter tomorrow! ugh :-((
Nighty night everyone! -
And @kelani complained about a little bunny fur yesterday morning.
I got up today and found a "Kel stampede" had left me for dead.
Out with the girlies today, so no chance to catch up :-( -
@kelani Thanks for the Lita Ford vid, va va cool :) Also the poster, love that style. . . so loved the 1950s, wish I could take a trip in time back there. . .
"Silver of a lighter color" (oh, nice one lol): where does "elderly" start, IYO? It's a state of mind, I think - witness our wonderful Dolly and also Leonard Cohen, another major passion of mine. This is my favorite vid among all those he made of "Hallelujah" simply because of who he is, how he sings at this particular moment in time, and how the audience still loves him. Take time out to savour this if you haven't seen it before:
http://youtu.be/YrLk4vdY28Q
Your comment that Dolly is everywhere reminded me of this graffito scrawled on a wall at the University of East Anglia, concerning leading academic Malcolm Bradbury, who was most often MIA on visits, lecture tours etc, to the chagrin of the student who wrote this:
Q: What's the difference between God and Professor Bradbury?
A: God is everywhere, but Professor Bradbury is everywhere but here.
Dolly's in good company, I think! -
Hello to you @all.
My wife, my darling, has juggled with backups, all scores back. Lost them during the update of the new ABO. Great. (She knows how to handle Apple stuff). -
@Ollygod I see you in #1 now. Did you get 1,800 points in the last two minutes? :)
@hunnybunny now, now. I told you I was gonna do a little psychological warfare on our competitor. I expect you to catch up quickly and finish the job.
edit: @fenikus High Dive challenge today. You're #25th and falling.
