We were calling you "that little British whore" long before you ever posted anything here.  

Pfft, hold my beer.

LOL, grandpa must have buried the wreckage and the body so the Germans couldn't find it. No way that entire plane was just swallowed up by the ground without a trace after it crashed.

Great story.

We have 2 cats and no litter boxes. They shit in the neighbors flower beds.

I would be perfectly happy if they just made an affordable and dependable car today that only drove on the ground. The original Ford Model A and T's still run today. They were built to run forever, unlike modern cars which are manufactured to stop working at some future point.

Honestly my main problem with a flying car is the same problem I have with small private planes and helicoptors. If you experience mechanical difficulties you can't just pull to the side of the road and call a tow truck. Even worse, flying cars can't glide like an airplane can and will drop like a stone if the engine stalls.

If I was a disease attacking Mac, I'd be scared as hell. He's too mean to let anything beat him.

Wish him a speedy recovery for us Loader.

Happy birthday Rami. Make it a great one.

It won't take intelligent robots to kill humans. The dumb ones maintaned by humans will more than likely do a good job at that.

The big buzz over the last couple years has been Tesla motors and Google with their self driving cars.  Humans are funny creatures, and most Americans in particular love their private cars and love being in control, so at this point I have trouble imagining self driving cars really taking off in the US. Yes, there will be many who don't like driving and would rather text or do things online instead of watching the road. The problem is that robots, and self driving cars can't maintain themselves. It takes humans to keep them operating properly. Tesla already had one death in a car that was being controlled by a computer and ran into a semi truck at an intersection. This is how robots will kill us. 

Speaking of semi-trucks, there have been 4 companies start up in the last year creating computers that will allow big rigs to self drive. Yes, it can be done, but imagine if a senser fails, gets dirty or a bug splatters on the lense of a guidance camera and the truck slams into a school bus and kills a bunch of kids.

Congratulations Beers. A long overdue nod is well deserved.

Happy birthday Joe. I hope you had a great one.

I have service from the Mexican phone company "Taco Bell".

Damn, that's a shocker. He was only 5 years older than me.

Game over man..........

Live every day as if it's your last.

Happy birthday KK. I hope you have a nice one.

yeah you do..

I didn't want to be the first asshole to say it.  

That joke left a bad taste in my mouth.  

I'll be there. Sounds like fun.

Both still look amazing.  

LOL....there was a piece of oatmeal on the picture...lol...that's not me anyhow...I'm to the left of the chick with the crazy hair.

Glad to hear it was only oatmeal. I was afraid that you sneezed.

This pic is around 10 years old, but it's always been one of my favorites. A small birthday celebration with 2 of my kids acting like idiots.

Congratulations Ter, I mean PimpedOutGrandad.

Well done Lead. You are a great contributor to the boards and I always enjoy reading your posts.

Keep up the great work.

Happy birthday VH. Make it a great one?

So it's true, Canadians are giving people.

On all of my home computers I've been saying no to Win10 forever. Now they're making it impossible to use certain sites unless I do the update, otherwise I just use Firefox. He'll I can't even post on XI using IE. YouTube won't let me watch video using my older version of IE.
