resulted in a space-age snowmobile

I think we really need a better adjective these days. Space-age is the 60s and 70s.

FTA: The Phantom has an average speed of 55 miles per hour, but Kyle Anderson would like to develop it to reach a speed of 100 mph.

Soon to be followed by "Stockholm man found plastered around pine tree."

Now if only the poor guy had an Internet connection he could post some pics to the Web.

Completely missed the point of a snowmobile.

Back in my day we didn't have a fancy sit down vid-e-o game of Spy Hunter. We had to stand there and imagine we were sitting down ... and we liked it!

Thanks. That pic in the linked article wasn't worth a damn.

toetag: Colin O'Scopy: MP3's WISH they had the quality CD players do...

I hear that snob response a lot. I'm thankful that all the LIVE concerts and rock festivals in Europe ruined my hearing such that I can't tell the difference between a cassette tape, CD or mp3. Makes music purchasing rather inexpensive when i can get MP3's so cheap instead of a CD with 12 tracks and only 1-2 songs worth the purchase.

Yeah, I went to plenty of LIVE concerts in my time (still do go to them, too). But I'm not proud of my hearing damage. Almost always wore earplugs (which my dad insisted I carry in my camera bag, smart man), but spent about two years doing photography so ended up right next to the speaker on the side of the stage on a pretty frequent clip. Tried not to stay there; sometimes that wasn't possible.

Anyway, yeah. Enjoy the tinnitus. I'll enjoy that mine isn't as bad as it could have been (since I wouldn't trade most of those concerts for anything).

/thanks, Dad

Air pollution from the Industrial Revolution on has changed the air composition to the point that sound quality at live concerts has been total crap since about the end of the 19th Century. And, for that matter, water contamination has degraded human nerve response and left us without really talented musicians. Haven't had any really proper ones since, I don't know, Blind Tom or that guy who used to tour with Gottschalk's music.

To really hear music properly, you need it performed by the right imps imprisoned in an amber sounding bell, piped to glass headphones through virgin Brazilian rubber tubes filled with purified air. Even then, your ears aren't good enough, but what can you do.

Things were better in the old days.

Or he could just, you know, buy an Indy 500... What can I say? I'm not a native. They remind me of that once in a while. I smile gratefully.

Jesus Christ, he's a County boy. Color me unsurprised.

FTFA: Other planned improvements include DeLorean-style doors and a Comet clutch.

...and a flux capacitor.

It's up in Northern Maine, the photographer is lucky to get out alive.

The rest of his crew is probably duct taped to saw horses and used for Saturday night entertainment after sis is all worn out.

KEEP SLEDDING, I HEAR BANJOS!!!

BumpInTheNight: What's a CD player? Is that something old people used to use before MP3 players or something?

It's the County. It should've had an 8-track player in it.

Northern Maine? You betta believe it, Mistah Man.
