I needed a mod to change my signature because the concept of "family friendly" eludes me.
Just noticed that a mod changed my signature. How long ago was that?

"Night descends over Essex."
*sounds of gunshots, barking dogs, sirens, machine-gun fire*
From what I've heard of Essex, not too far off.  cheesy

And that race was freaking awesome! Someone waving a pan out the window, pieces flying off the vehicles, and half of them crashing at the finish, apparently taking out the checkered-flag stand.

That's a race.

I love Top Gear.  They always look like they're having so much fun. 

One of the best descriptions for a car I've ever heard was uttered by Jeremy Clarkson.  He was talking about a performance Mercedes, the one with the 400+ HP 6 liter engine.  With the traction control switched of it was a beast to drive.  He kept searching for something graphically descriptive of the raw, hedonistic, brutal power of the big Merc.  He finally settled on calling it "an axe murderer with headlights."  grin

Just search Youtube for:

world's smallest car

It should be 9:41sec long, by Top Gear.  WAY funny.
