All official recommendations, official meaning from the organization/agency that should have the best information, have to by necessity cover worst case scenarios. No odds of, just worse case, not what will, but what can. So the 5 second rule is invalid, complete hogwash, even if you survive.

Don't shoot the messenger; after all, you should know who/what you're french-kissing.

The folks who work for the CDC work for whom? Anything they said would fall in line along with congress news releases. IMHO! :bolt:

On that middle cover is one smokin' hot Raquel Welch, who was 48 years old in that pic. (If that's an '88 Cosmo)

Just saying.

Yep, **smokin'**.

he does stick the landing, doesn't he?

That's some Jackie Chan shit right there. Or it will be if Jackie ever sees this clip.

I know it's a different language, but I swear that guy says, "Holy Soup!"

:lol:

I don't think it's f'realz, though. Of course, I always film the road in front of me when I'm driving on the freeway. You know, just in case this happens. :rolleyes:

It's like the mysterious chants your cult neighbors do. You'll never know.

though it may not be your cup of tea, youtube is littered with dashcam footage of all kinds of shit like this from the horrific to the hilarious. having a dashcam in Russia (and I use the term loosely) is really, really popular, apparently. Witness the huge number of cam footage clips from Russia when that meteor exploded awhile back. Anyhow... it is only a youtube clip, but I am going to indulge myself and pretend it *is* a tribute to Jackie Chan. :)

but f'realz, if you do find this kind of footage interesting, a little time on youtube will reward you (or punish you if you had an appointment...)

Oh yeah, now that you mention it I do remember the russian dash cam that caught the SUV that skidded into the path of a semi and basically disintegrated the SUV. Ugh. That was awful.

So maybe it did really happen. Now I really want to know if it's f'realz.

I believe it's real. Virtually every Russian has a dashboard cam. You film enough stuff, weird things like this will get captured. And this accident is well within the laws of physics. Everything behaved pretty much the way it should based on the forces involved. The only thing I see that's questionable is that the rider was able to stay on the roof of the car after the accident as that car slowed down. He should tend to slide off the front hood. But maybe he had a white knuckle grip.

My understanding is that the practice started because it was a popular scam for people to throw themselves onto the hoods of slow-moving cars, and then sue for civil damages as an "injured" pedestrian. The dashcam became the only way to protect yourself legally.

I have heard the same.

That right there makes me wonder why so many are spoiling for a fight with the Russians. The latest mania for ISIS seems to have shifted the focus however.

Also, police corruption is positively rampant in Russia. I've read that as a reason for Russian dashcam popularity a couple times.

They just don't make totem poles like they used to.

I just can't say enough how offended I am by that statement. Totem poles? Ffs. You should say 'totem polls' as in 'what are your favorite totems'?

I'm so mad. I'm so offended. How dare you. Unless you have a tattoo of your favorite totem you haven't been there! You just don't understand!

:rolleyes:

Or not.

The one in glatt's post tells an interesting story; but, you have to read it from the middle out to both ends simultaneously or it's hard to follow the plot.

You know:

Hey! I lived on a totem pole for three months.

Oh, well, that explains everything.

I see some big vet bills there. :eek:

I've been watching a TV series about Veterinary students in their final year of training. In the last episode this week, one of the trainees said that at a practice she was attached to, a dog was brought in having swallowed seven golf balls. She said that you could hear it rattling as it was walked in to be examined. I love dogs, but even I recognise that they do some extremely daft things on occasions.

I suspect that the video player won't work outside the UK for obscure copyright reasons, but it's worth a try.

You are correct, sir.

ETA: There does appear to be several complete episodes on YouTube, however.

Thanks, Grav. I won't go down that route again. :thumb:

Locally, we once had the 'Friar Tuck Restaurant'. This provided hours of innocent amusement for school kids who had recently discovered the joys of Spoonerisms.

Anyone who objects to that twelve year old sign has far, far too much time on their hands.

"...highly inappropriate, as there are children around."

:EYEROLL!!:

Yeah - 'cause if there's one thing British kids don't do it's swear like troopers practically as soon as they are able to form the words :P

Fookin'-A!

If you mean the smaller banner, after the word 'shop', it says "excellent something", and "something prices", or "something fries".

I think.

There's a restaurant chain hereabouts called "Fuddrucker's."

Excellent Food, Reasonable Prices.

We have Fuddruckers too. Wiki says... I guess that means one in the Dominican Republic too. :confused:
