Rush YYZ - Played by a 13 Year Old Girl Drummer!

Spoon_Gouge says...

I just caught Peart and Rush in the R30 concert from Frankfurt, Germany in 2004 and he has a 360° kit with more drums, cymbals bells and xylophones than you could shake your drumsticks at. I'll give props to the 13 year old and even to Tony Royster if we're comparing, but I don't think either could keep up with Niel. That said, he's 50+, has had umpteen years of experience at this point and, eh, I'll guess did not have this level of talent at their age. But you always look up to others don't you? I can't imagine that Niel had that level of drummer to idolize 30 some odd years ago...

Opel P-1 - 376 Miles Per Gallon Car in 1973!

Spoon_Gouge says...

I tend to agree, the conditions you mentioned all played an affect on the mpg in question. If the mpg is correct, I'm not sure what kind of conditions they were under but I'm sure they were tightly controlled. Unreal and unexpected by today's driver in the multitude of conditions you see. My car (a Mini Cooper) does about 3-4mpg less during the winter season than the summer regardless of slower drive times, etc...

Reading the links given above, it would be easy to get caught up in what is potentially fakery as Jimbo points out. The guy in the video was pointing out less than a 3rd of the 376 mpg should be possible, but I think the market is only now beginning to cry out for such numbers. It would be interesting to see how the car performs...

Michelle Malkin - Treat Atheists Like "Trolls" for Christmas

Spoon_Gouge says...

making fun of them is the next best thing? This is really bizarre behavior from the news media. What's amazing to me is how much Christmas (the holiday) is wrapped in paganism and Christians practice it anyway.
