Hit me at 40mph.......

If the Ivory Tower is the brain of the board, and the Transformers discussion is its heart, then General Discussions is the waste disposal pipe. Or kidney. Or something suitably pulpy and soft, like 4 week old bananas.

You know that advert?

I'm thinking maybe knock a kid down this weekend at 35mph and make it a 50/50 nailbiter. What do you think?

Hehehe...
Now I can't get the image of that episode of Monkey Dust out of my head, where they parody those ones -

"A car travelling at 30mph would have stopped HERE"
"A car travelling at 35mph would have stopped HERE"
"But a car travelling at 40mph won't stop until HERE"
*Car gently comes to a halt, tapping against a massive lead slab with spikes on the opposite side, which topples over and squishes the old lady crossing the street*
"100% of road accidents of this nature will result in fatality"
DRIVING = MURDER

I was creamed by a pickup in a blizzard once. I distinctly remember rolling under it and thinking, "I will not tolerate anymore of this."

Got some wicked road rash. Given the weather, it was probably going around 10 mph, which definitely saved me.
