Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

Good lord. Internal decapitation... Huh.

So if you're gonna do microwave experiments, you should also place a glass of water inside to absorb the microwaves in case your experiment does not.
And the water can turn to steam and kickstart the cleaning process for you if it doesn't. If the microwave survives at all that is.

"Mister Spock is on his fanny, sir. Reports heavy damage."

Yeesh. Like a compression fracture, in reverse. But the real question is, what is a preteen doing racing cars? If he can't get a driver's license, how is he getting on the NASCAR circuit (or whatever they have in Britain)??

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

They're some sort of mini-cars. Or big go-karts. Or something. The engines are 1000cc, which is the size used by a fairly big motorcycle.

Young kids can kart. Here, there. Anywhere.

With the safety measures in any kind of racing? The kids are more likely safer than in their parent's family car.

Our wings are not tired

Anyone seen my motivation?

I have TJ's Nutella and a glass of nice red wine. It's better than motivation.

"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand

I think wanting to go back to racing post-internal decapitation indicates we've got a future Darwin Award winner on our hands.

If at any time a doctor should tell me "it's a miracle you survived!" my first instinct will not be to repeat the sequence of events to seeif there's a different outcome.

Nutella sounds yummy. That might be better than motivation.

Way better than motivation. And internal decapitation too.

Blessed be Trader Joe's.

Seriously, Nutella and wine. It's like Real-Life Midol. I don't think you need to have PMS for the comfort either, it's just really helping mine. It's just like puppies and ocean breezes and a massage. In your tummy and brain. The theory, not actually eating puppies.

Ed Viesturs is a rock god. Literally. I am hoping he proves me right on TDS.

I think it is almost bedtime.
