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.

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

Anyone seen my motivation?

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

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.

Has anyone heard of this game ?
There is more info at the Wiki article
I only mention it cuz I learned about it today, and it seems kinda crazy that a christian game wants you to convert or kill everyone. A buddy has linked me a lefty group who is protesting Wal-Mart selling the game, but not other violent games.
Crazy!
