One of my quick rules of life: never trust any government whose soldiers goose-step.

Mind you, one of my other rules is never trust any government at all, but it goes double for the goose steppers.


Yes, I remember watching the wall come down, one of the greatest, most amazing, feel-good events in history. And we got to watch it unfold practically live. Awesome.


Keep in mind, Volkswagon also own and make the Bugatti Veyron. 1,001 horsepower, max 407kph. No, you cannot afford one. The tyres alone cost over $20,000 for a set, and at top speed, will last around 15 minutes.

15 is enough, the gas tank is only big enough for 12 minutes... seriously.

True, I guess that is kind of a safety feature.

Now, as for the cost of refilling that gas tank ...
