Oh, come on, super geek meets illegal street racing not a big drawcard? Do I have to *beg for it?

>> ^JAPR:
over 10 is long

That's what she said.


I'd consider the twin turbo Toyota Supra mark IV a Japanese supercar at least production-wise. The cool thing about the older Toyotas and Nissans are the potential they have for added horsepower. This dude that lived down the road from me a few years back with too much time and money on his hands (yes that's jealousy you detect) built a 1000hp supra. He had a couple others beefed up too.

But that was back when street racing and techno was cool. Now we've gotta conserve gas and listen to Phish.

Next thing you know, you guys will want a “hair channel.”

Hmmm . . . our roastee is a master, of several computer brands, who actually manages to pry himself away from several keyboards to ref hockey, run for the Red Cross, hike, camp and street race. He even describes himself as a “survivalist buff.” Um, it might be wise of us to vote him off the island now.

Thesnipe is a one-avatar-kind-of-guy. I guess he help brings balance to the Sift. Of course, at the other end of the spectrum we have The Avatar Chameleon Himself, choggie.

>>Whipped cream for various purposes.>>I imagine a number of us saw “Varsity Blues.”


>> List your five most cherished possessions.>> You put “Friends” first.

>>I've developed my own sense or religion though, no churches and that crap.>>
>> I'm a mix of Christian and Buddhist if you had to pin it down.>>
So now we’re talking “cult” maybe?

>>horror movies score some close intimate time.>> You use horror films to create intimate moments.

Note to Self: maybe marking thesnipe as a friend isn’t such a good idea after all.


>>What is your favorite memory? Let's call it college experimentation.>> Yep, lots of mental visuals you generated for this motley crew – right Mr. Stripper Dust?

bah, the current generation of underpowered 3rd world street racing mini cars is pathetic. Oh yeah, all kinds of cutout vroom-vroom at stop lights, then when you step on the gas they're all in the dust of your 20 year old K-Car.

I learned to drive on a '63 that had a '57 Porsche engine... my brothers did it for street-racing. Heh.
