You would be correct.   However, the Hooniversity Department of Inter-disciplinary Studies and general cool stuff believes in providing a…

      More often than not, someone compliments my car when I get gas. Half the time people want to know all about it. Once, a lady ran up and “just wanted to shake [my] hand”. Another guy was reduced to a sort of stupor, just gawking, sighing and saying “wow…”. The situation’s similar on the…

    Roughly a year and a half ago, I picked up my 1964 Ford Falcon with the intention of using it as a daily driver. It sports a 260c.i. V8 (a baby 289, if you will), a four speed manual transmission, and power nothing. I figured it might be worth an update to see how commuting…

    Ok ass-munches, you have proved that you can guess anything and everything.  You are unstumpable, we get it.  So i’m going to toss this* out there in hopes that perhaps you are humbled and beg for mercy.  Yeah ima jerk like that, but can you really blame me?  If anyone guesses the correct make/model +/-…

    See that guy up there? No, that’s not Brad Pitt, it’s Sovereign Citizen, Michael Creath Jones. What’s a Sovereign Citizen, you might ask?  Well, that’s basically some jag-off who claims not to be bound by the laws of our great nation, but who still whats to avail themselves of the benefits of living here – like…
