Is that an endorsement?

Statham's imdb.com profile, collectively, is a promise to you, the weary filmgoer. It's a promise that says, "I promise that you will not FOR ONE SECOND be bored during one of my movies. You won't learn shit about the human condition, or feel a collective connection with the brotherhood of man. But if you give me $10, I will fuck an explosion while a Slayer song plays".

Stein/Flagon/somethingorother

So, here is my new ceramic stein/flagon/1.5-pint-mug thing:

Ariel Atom 500

Ariel have announced an Atom with the same 2.4L v8 (or so it appears) that powers the insane Caterham RS Lavante.

Basically this puts the Atom 500 at 1000 BHP/ton.

Sometimes Lucky, Sometimes Not

A very entertaining video. I like the bank robbers best.

For those who are interested

Synopsis of JMS's synopsis of the "original arc for B5

It makes for interesting reading.  My favorite bit is the start of the thread which has a **SPOILERS** warning.  Discussing the original plan for a show that’s been off the air for how many years?  And the discussion has spoilers??  Ready???  Amazing.
