Man your friend the camerman is some sissy!! That's pretty funny - but I kept expecting the bat to fly at him - which would have been WAY funny. Glad you didn't get bit...
I used to live in an long narrow attic bedroom and got a bat up there one night. He's flying laps and I'm trying to hit him with a sofa cushion. Started hanging towels up so he was flying an obstacle course Eventually I knocked him down and out, picked him up by his wings and threw him out the window. if my mom had known she'd have freaked!

my roommate was the cameraman, and he's 6'1", 307lbs of mostly muscle.

when he squawked and ran, that's because the bat DID fly at him...heh.

The more I read about it the more I'm just thinking "why would anyone get this?"

I mean, you can't really even control idle X_X

It's a piggyback, and I'll give it slightly higher marks then the SAFC :/

Turn off your A/C to save gas!



- - - - - -

Anyway, this last weekend Joey, Cory and I drove to NJ in Joey's super awesome truck (Dodge 3500 DIESEL ZOMG TORRENT) to go pick up my Vanagon. (Super awesome points for Joey)

What would have been a 2.5 hour trip each way ended up being an all day affair. Hit traffic a billion times, all of it for no reason whatsoever. (Oh wait, one of the holdups was because of some tire tread in the road . . . )

But the most amazing thing that occured, I belive, is when we were driving back to MD with the van in tow. This fellow tried to cut off the Vanagon. I'm not kidding. I have no clue what was going on in his head O_o

I feel I need to add:

What in the WORLD is going on with the roads in NJ?!

Can anyone explain this?

Commuting Vocabulary

Jersey Slide: change lanes without using your turn signal. Executed frequently by New Jersey people, New Yorkers, and Pennslytuckians. Illegal.

Jersey Jump: when a driver in the left lane at a traffic light busts a left turn the moment the light turns green, in effect cutting off the oncoming traffic.

K-Turn: a 3-point turn.

Jug Handle: how do I explain this… in Jersey you can’t make left turns on highways. Instead you have to use a jug handle, which is a loop of road that brings you back to the intersection on the perpendicular tip.

There is no explanation. I did find it on mapquest though

It looks about 15x worse in real life - this image doesn't begin to describe how fucked up that was.

Actually, in a test recently done by a news website...window drag vs. AC, using the AC used something like 0.2% more gas. Which is..practically nothing. I'll gladly take 60* air versus 100*+ air and pay the extra 20 cents per tank.

That's got to be REALLY speed dependant. They probably did it at 55 - there's a much bigger diff at 80
