it was cold that day ... really






eHARMONY 2.0


Notorious comedy group Improv Everywhere struck the New York City subway system earlier this morning, planting thousands of bottomless adventurers onto a number of random subway trains to make a statement about ... I dunno, genitals?

Best part of the video?

Skip ahead to 0:25 in, when the guy asks everyone involved to "be as respectful as possible, and - you know - try not to rub your genitals on anyone."



YOU CAN DISRESPECT THIS GUY ANYTIME


Gotta hand it to 'em, Improv Everywhere knows how to throw a party.

Apparently, the idea that different words have different meanings is a novel enough concept that Neatorama picked up on it.

Snarkiness aside, however, Miss Cellania's post did highlight a fairly interesting New York Times survey about gays and lesbians serving in the military, with results showing that -
"seven in 10 respondents said they favor allowing 'gay men and lesbians' to serve in the military, including nearly 6 in 10 who said they should be allowed to serve openly. But support was somewhat lower among those who were asked about allowing 'homosexuals' to serve, with 59 percent in favor, including 44 percent who support allowing them to serve openly."

So, take from that what you will.

how to break a million-dollar car






I'm guessing these guys are union (try to move your own car into Cobo hall for an auto show - see what happens). I'm also guessing these guys are idiots.

All the same, this is terribly tragic for me to watch on a personal level, as that particular SLR McLaren 722GT is supposed to be delivered to ME immediately after the show (good thing someone caught this on tape - now I have a rock-solid insurance claim for that carbon-fiber side skirt!).

In any event, this (repaired) SLR McLaren 722GT will be at RENNTECH for the month of April, and we'll be taking it to Amelia Island, St. Petersburg (for the Festivals of Speed), and the Celebration exotic car weekend. We might take it to the Polo Club, if only to terrify the horses.

More pics to come. You can see the whole, ugly, sordid mess of a disaster now, though: CLICK HERE.
