Not to mention the constant G's being thrown against your body, but hey, who can't take forces like that?

Watched it today.
Not sure if it was better than the Giants vs Patriots, but as the NFL Commentator said it comes close.
Warner was kinda disappointed 'cause it was his last match and Arizona lost.
Fitzgerald was a beast in the 4th Quarter.



Overall a very good game.

And ofcourse any other 4 wheeled sport that includes downforce and slick tyres. Even karting is no joke when it comes to Gs.

Word. I break a sweat faster in a kart than I do in any other sport... After a couple laps, I'm sweatin', after a few more, I start feeling it in my forearms, and if I go long enough my legs start feeling it as well. Not to mention how focused you have to be to have consistent, fast lap times. I'm not in excellent shape, but I'd say I'm fit. And that's just in a kart for about 15 laps... Imagine something like the 24hr of LeMans. Granted each driver doesn't drive all 24 hours, but still, hours at a time... You need to be in shape for that.

Wait, Clarkson did it, huh? Well, there goes my point. He did cry, though... Probably because he was so exhausted, right? :P

Speaking of LeMans, have you all heard of Truth in 24? Check it out. Looks epic. Supposedly it's playing on ESPN on March 20th at 8pm... I think. Pretty sure I'm gonna buy this as soon as it comes to DVD though. :D

Has anyone ever noticed how much times change in only a year? This time last year, I think I was just stretched out playing GT4 all the time. Now, despite having that new 360, I don't even get to play video games anymore.

I mean right time moment, I'm getting scheduled at work again (there go my weekends,) setting up another savings account for my car at the bank, posting on a college forum - actually taking getting into UNC: Chapel Hill seriously, exchanging computers between people just after getting calls saying people are looking to sell new PC's (don't ask me why,) getting numerous calls from people around town asking for help with their PC's, and just staring at pictures of the car I want... telling myself to stay to it. Not to mention I have to go take my permit test tomorrow, (yes, my SSN Card finally came in the mail.) :P

So, what were y'all doing a year ago vs. now? :O

Hm, I was also doing pretty much the same thing one year ago, although in the past 12 months I seem to have upgraded all of my stuff. Upgraded my PC, laptop, phone, got a good payrise, and I'm currently planning to do insane things to my car.
I've started watching more anime (currently keeping up with 10 shows) but all my other habits are about the same.

My laptop has been with me for the past 18 months, and I'm still loving it - and it's an Acer with Vista. LOL!! Though I have to say my laptop is only used for school work and Internet. No gaming. :)

Aw man, we went to the DMV to get my permit, came back and there's three cops sitting on the curb outside my house. :o

Said the alarm went off, the glassbreaker microphone picked something up somewhere t'words the back of the house... we didn't find anywhere where anyone tried to break in, but it was kinda' eery. Especially since I've gone up on my bandwidth use, and not only that but I had about 7 Firefox windows on how to make and use Opium from that report I had to do... :roll:

Anyway, me's might get my permit tomorrow. :mrgreen:
(Tester was closed by the time we got through the line lol.)

Guess who (finally) got their permit today! \:D/

Today's been a good day, I even got a limited edition of the Elmwood Band (came to our school a while back,) EP. Only 50 were made. :D

*Looks at permit*
Ahahahaha... I have a smirk in my picture. :lol:

When i went to get my permit, here in Ohio, they took a pic of me and then gave me the permit in my hand. Next was that eye test and then the computer one.
Lol i could have walked out without giving or passing the test. The had already entered my permit number in the database, before i gave the test.. :lol:

Lol... we didn't even have an eye test. I guess we have to be able to see well enough to do the test on the computer though, lol.

@t3ice - lol, sorta weird why they do it like that.

I had to do the eye test first thing. Got my permit last July, so it's been over 7 months now. This July I get my license, so... w00t!!!

Learner's permit. With a learner's permit you can drive only with an adult in the car with you.

Man, some damn old person pulled out onto the freeway in front of me from a parking lot, I had to slam on brakes in the middle of traffic... not to mention my mother freaked out ahaha.

Defensive driving FTW. Almost having someone cause an accident on your first day, FTL.
Actually, I think I did pretty well. The douche bad looked right at me and pulled out. Frickin'... yeah. :roll:
