    What's the difference between a bolt and a screw?
    First you screw, then you bolt.

    That was a terrible report. The guy they interviewed had nothing to do with it.

    Well yes he did, no? He does it for the "rush" married with 3 kids, middle-aged in his 30's.. LOL I thought middle aged was like 40 something.


    It wasn't a very good report.

    Stunting isn't my bag. It scares the shit out of me, now. But when I was younger I was a little bit more daring..

    I sure hope middle-aged is 40s! Otherwise, I'm screwed!

    Also, the guy has a poor defense for squids.

    In his place, I would say something more like, we don't have anywhere to go to do these things safely. Almost all other forms of motorsport started as illegal activities until places were made for them to take it off the streets. Drag racing, NASCAR, and Formula D (drifting) are all great examples of motorsports that evolved from illegal or 'reckless' driving.

    Yea Matt, that would have been a much better angle for these guys to play. Makes perfect sense.

    Never will these idiots get that. "There's nothing you can do to stop them". Range Rover disagrees.

    It was a bad story. It wasn't the worst one on CBS news tonight.

    If there is one thing I learned about television is that the tv networks will try to capitalize on whatever junk they can broadcast.

    No it's not, middle-aged is 50s. I'm 43 and I'm not middle-aged yet, goddammit!

    again??

    haven't stunters been on news specials several times??

    "special report: stunters: no regard for the law with a ride-or-die attitude...this is happening in your own town's industrial parking lots around America."

    then they interview one of the stunters who sounds the dumbest when he speaks...because he'll likely attract the most viewers

    ^^ It was basically that, except this fine specimen was stunting on the streets and had plenty of Youtube videos to prove it. His defense? "I'm married with three kids and this is my release/escape." His club president? "No, we don't condone that kind of riding. But you can't stop it from happening."

    That growing phenomena just rolled past me on comm ave by BU on quads, dirt bikes, and other cycles without lights, plates, or regard for any sort of safety.
    Ripping wheelies through a crowded crosswalk pissed me off a bit

    You Sir know nothing of true greatness. I of course refer to ones ability to steal, drink and generally do nothing, and carry it off with style
