    CRASHING DRIVABLE ART

    I have spun my Ferrari twice, and I know how to drive it, and I drive like a grandmother. They look good, but they are very hard to control. Lambos are even worse and have even less visibility. So if you want the thrilling experience of driving get a Porsche with all wheel drive or an Audi sedan with the same. If you drive a supercar realize that most of them don’t have the computer equipment in them to compensate for the fact that they operate beyond human mental and physical capacity. I keep seeing these douchebags crash, split, spin, roll, pole and tree their cars because they simply do not learn how to manage the physics of that power and weight combination. You do not drive a supercar impulsively. You drive it like a race car: you PLAN your gas, gear, brake and curve out on the visual horizon. You pilot them more than drive them. It’s work. If you don’t want to work at it, and just want to feel the rush then buy something that operates at human scale. Like a Miata. Don’t wreck a drivable piece of art. It’s immoral. 🙂

    JAN LESTER GOT IT RIGHT

    Jan Lester doesn’t get much love or credit. But after I publish he will at least be able to say “I told you so”. He’s the only libertarian that correctly identified the causal origins of ethical action. All philosophers need only contribute a single idea. And that one idea qualifies him. My argument is scientific rather than rational, and I didn’t know about Jan Lester until last year, but the man ‘got it right’. And he got it right first.

    DISPELLING THE ILLUSION

    –“The Iraqi government vanished when it came under attack by a few thousand competent well trained well armed men employing only personal weapons striking in areas far away from the centers of government power.”– jim

    http://t.co/i0XzCKreWGUSA IS WORTHLESS OR WORSE

    I told ya’. Not backing Ukraine told every nation on earth that they either have nuclear weapons or they do not have sovereignty.

    Thanks. Obama is now the leading cause of the proliferation of nuclear arms.

    Idiot. Worst president in history.

    OBAMA HAS KILLED THE PRESIDENCY

    Obama has killed the presidency.

    More so than nixon.

    More so than FDR.

    He has destroyed the office.

    Unless he is impeached.

    Which is not possible under current ratios.

    We will have to convert to a prime minster model.

    Leave the presidency as a weak head of state.

    Otherwise obama has created dictatorship.

    The end of the american experiment.

    That was it.

    It’s done.

    CULTURAL OBSERVATIONS: HALF NAKED FASHION

    I still can’t really adjust to the fact that summer basically means women wear sheer, effectively transparent clothing over designer underwear and high heels. I feel like I’m seeing something I’m not supposed to. (How puritanical.)

    It’s really, well, like not fair to have this ‘disability’ where your whole brain just shuts down when you see a troop (pack?) of women walk by dressed like that – and it’s not special. it’s just normal dress for them.

    V says “Don’t be stupid. We are not shy American girls.” (She thinks I’m pretty stupid about a lot of things it turns out. lol)

    V has been hitting the gym, with a trainer, three days a week, two hours a day, and she looks mindblowingly good. She punched me yesterday, (V is definitely a Ukrainian) and I was kind of surprised that it hurt. 🙂 So she stole my cookies and told me that when she was ‘fatter’ that it was OK, but I cannot be fat again if she can’t. lol

    You know, Celts tend to have bigger chest cavities (me). Germans tend to be bigger “sturdier” all around, and Slavs are much more lithe. These people here are so beautiful. Poles have been exporting genes to all of eastern europe. And now that I see it (that taller thinner german thing) I see it everywhere. The Scandinavians really got the best genes, and if you look at the (few) real dutch they really take the genetic cake. Tall, smart, strong, and healthy. I feel like a little breton runt of the litter next to them. 🙂
