I've only got to this part so far... but OMFG!!!


When the engine starts to redline, it?s telling the driver that parts may begin to bend, stretch or break, so slow down. Hence the red color; red was intended to give the notion of danger, or stop

I started reading and then stopped when my brain began to liquefy and run out my ears.
I am not sufficiently dumber for having read that.

Other highlights:

The Mustang is Ford?s counterpart to the Civic

The after market for the Mustang is limited

And the icing on the cake...

*The process of an RPM works like this: Air goes into the intake. As the cam opens, and the as the piston is going down, it will fill the cylinder with a combination of gas and air. The valve then closes, then the spark plug fires, and the gases inside the cylinder explode. The piston starts coming back up and compresses the gases, turning the crank causing the exhaust valves to open and release the gases to the exhaust manifold. This is one RPM. For the slower readers, engines basically go through 4 strokes: suck (the intake of air), squish (the compression), bang (the spark plug igniting the gases), and blow (gases out the exhaust).

Wow. Although it's not a direct quote, did anyone else have this Simpson's line in their head?

Well, it looks like heaven's easier to get into than Arizona State!

For the slower readers...

I like how he insults his audiance by using such phraseology. Not a very good idea. He could have started off by saying something like, "In more simple terms," or "In short."

You'd be surprised...or maybe not, that a very large amount (probably a majority) really don't know how to write a good paper. It just gets worse in the work place where people make reports which are very difficult to comprehend due to lackluster grammer skills.

Waiting for the obligatory - "Who cares how I spell at work" / "I'm a programmer not an English Major" / "No one in MIS cares if I can use grammar correctly"

FSU is the school that visits our high school... people line up to a desk and get accepted in less than 1 minute. They rejected one person last year.

You will find, if you care to look, that calling people morons has been very effective. People have called other people morons so much that that form of beatific christening has become a universal feature of all our lives. One diagnostic for effective penetration of the intended effect is to check for name calling and piling on. If you can find somebody identified publicly as a moron you will find all those who themselves have been called moron sometime in the past and unfortunately didn't have the inner whatever it is that enables so few to avoid stabbing themselves in the heart with the feeling that that term is exactly fitting of them, yes you will find them gathered round that reputed moron like stink on sh!t or blow flies to a corpse, sucking it for all it's worth. This of course is due to that unfortunate psychic tendency, unavoidable to the unsuspecting, that whenever one begins to hate himself in this way, the only outlet for that pain is to try to give it to somebody else. The beauty of slur slander calumny and putdown is that in this way the entire race is infected with an all consuming self hate that makes of everybody a WMD to every newborn child. In this way will we eventually hype our hate to a pitch sufficient to exterminate ourselves from the planet. That will happen, of course, unless by some miracle I cannot see, we finally and at last feel our shame.

"My name is Alexis Carmichael. I am from Miami. I like
long walks on the beach and enjoying deep
conversations discussing the philosophical meaning of
life. I am currently unemployed (read: spoiled) and
go to school at FSU. I love cars and I run my Type R
in 14.8 seconds at 99 mph in the quarter mile
."

Wow, impressive.

Talk about a broad vocabulary: "For the slower readers, engines basically go through 4 strokes: suck (the intake of air), squish (the compression), bang (the spark plug igniting the gases), and blow (gases out the exhaust)."
