It was last night, but I think I had an episode of sleep paralysis. I now understand why people think they were abducted by aliens, as I was fairly convinced I had moved to a different parallel universe (it didn't help that somebody was complaining that I wasn't responding to messages that I never received, on Facebook). Very weird. Surreal.

Wut.

My dad's watch is supposed to ship late this week. I asked for lug pics. I couldn't have asked for better chamfers.

I love the very low drag coefficient of the Civic Type R. It means the giant wing and all the aero are doing nothing, as downforce=drag.

You can get marmite in the USA. It's like $9 a jar, but you can.

It's a product of its time.

1.5!

*phew* I still have 3.5 years, then.

I guess I'm a bandwagoner, but I've been rooting for GS for many years. They play the unselfish small-ball that I love. the Cavs, with Lebron and, especially, Irving, epitomize the kind of selfish ball that was so prevalent in the 90s, that I hate.

That seems like a good way to only hear music when you aren't going down hill.

I saw a guy riding a bike while wearing a pair of HD-650, the other day. I wonder what he was driving them with.

That's not an explosion, it's a strong conflagration. Notice that there is smoke first, and you are able to see the thermal event proceed without a high speed camera.

Of course, a battery isn't an explosive, and isn't designed for near-instantaneous detonation across the entire device, so you get something closer to a strong conflagration, instead of a true explosion. Still, scary stuff.

Not very worthwhile when the transmission offerings in the videos aren't comparable. Porsche PDK and BMW DCT cars are quite a bit faster than their manual counterparts.

Man that was a sloppy first half. Exciting game, though. You might be right, but it hasn't happened yet. The Cavs definitely changed their game plan for tonight, but they seemed to just run out of steam. With Durant, I think they are having to work much harder than last year on defense, and it's just that much more tiring.

I don't understand why the show is seemingly forgotten. I've watched it through at least twice, and it's just one of my absolute favorite shows.

I'm sorry, Todd. May the last-hope meds work.

Fuck yes. It's delicious. You dress it after you grill it.

It's gone now, but a mushroom risotto made with mushroom/miso broth and a grilled Caesar salad.

Wait: MORE dramatic? I could cook on my Squarewave XL.

I hope it was a cool day.

That is a NatGeo kabob onion pic.

I wouldn't trade it for Daytona (within reason), but I would certainly like to have a Daytona to go with it. Sucks about the Daytona, Stretch. I'm sure you can buy one on Chrono24 at a 50% markup. That Daytona is a lot less clunky than my Speedmaster! Except for the very first version, the Speedy line has always been quite substantial. This one will not slip comfortably under a dress cuff, where as my GMT Master typically will. Most Rolexes are actually of quite moderate size, being 40mm and about 12mm thick. This pre-moon is 42mm by about 14 thick. It might not sound like much of a difference, but it's a much larger watch, and about as large as I will comfortably wear. It's why I sold my Maurice Lacroix. It was a watch I liked a lot, but it had several complications, which usually necessitates a large watch (unless you are Vacheron, apparently) and it was just too big.

Yep, roasties.

Wow. Chris will love this link, but it's great for anybody who loves watches. Had you ever seen a synthetic quartz crystal? Me either.
