How's My Blogging? Call 800-U-SHUT-UP.


CPB, the Miami ad agency lurved the world over, included this actual bumper sticker as part of a VW insert in the September issue of Vanity Fair (probably other pubs, too). Now, I've owned a VW Gulf. Fun car. Great car. Solid ( I know how solid. I drilled an American car with it. Their larger car caved like a house of cheap cards while the Golf was hardly maimed. Nobody was hurt. It wasn't my fault. No really, it wasn't). I've also been snorkeling a couple of times. Therefore, I believe I can say definitively that—Yes, I would still rather be snorkeling then driving a fucking car. ANY car. Well, unless it was an invisible hover car with cannons and lasers.

You don't think cannons AND lasers is overkill? Or are you trying to do the modern/retro thing. Cause in my mind, there is nothing that a cannon can do that a laser can't do better.

Awright, something fun to kvetch about:
You see a big motherfuckin' cannon blows things all to hell. Gory, bloody, messy, hell. It makes a lot of noise too, and smoke!
The people you kill sometimes hear it coming and have a chance to say "Holy Sh.."

Lasers on the other hand, are sneakily effective to disable, maim, or surgically remove a body part before you know what hit you.

You obviously haven't heard of the Quad Laser. Or the even more powerful Quad Glacier. No smoke, but the sound is pleasantly nostalgic, and your targets get a chance to say "Holly shit, the Quad Glacier is about to hit us. Oh no, we're doomed......"

question, would you be invisible too, or would it just look like you were floating shooting invisible cannons and lasers?

I'd rather be driving James Bond's Lotus from The Spy Who Loved Me...

It went under water, shot harpoons, was bulletproof and had a self-destuct mechanism.

Nice.

James, I would be invisible while in the car, just like Bond.
