That entire board room meeting was terrible. The whole group should have just rolled over and played dead.

al thanks for ur post i was unaware of that.... but to turn briefly to the subject of grand arms panzer i suppose that is the inherent danger of possessing such a mecha... i mean with its vast destructive powers its bound to have a weak point or two, if it didnt then just think the universe would be at the mercy of these devilish machines.... a 1000 km blast radius does seem fairly excessive however, i cannot but think of and pity the innocent people who would perish in such an explosion... i mean just think one day u wake up and ure cooking some eggs for ur breakfast, over-easy not sunnyside-up i know how u do al, and then all of a sudden without any warning youre incinerated, all because someone scored a lucky hit 1000 km away on a grand arms panzer and oh dear god what have i become.... on a related subject oh my god i cant beleive bradford waived his exemption serves him right...

"Why are we getting all these weirdos on this site now?"
um, Albert, I hope you realize the irony of your statement after having subjected all of us to your innumerable posts of late that have next to zero bearing on reality. Look in the mirror!


and what's this? Ian Blurton has a new band? man have I been out of the can-rock/indie scene for a while... and, speaking of that, I have a huge collection of CHART magazines - of which I used to receive on subscription - and I've been debating giving up for a while... if any of you would like to pawn them off of me... please come try to twist my arm, I may budge. gah, it's so hard to give up being a pack rat. Hey... late 90's Lots of AOE/Limblifter mania... and it's back when OLP were marginally good too (I know, not a major selling point... but Neko Case... lots of Liisa Ladoucer - pre MMM)... oh maybe I can't give them up... like I said, if you're interested, please attempt to convince me that it'll be good to give them to you. I may resist (just so you know) but it's worth a shot.

Ultimate Tranformable Heavy Destroid Unit Tom a tank actually has pretty okay mileage. A Dragoon (Armored Swat Team transport vehicle) has the worst mileage for a vehicle. It is around 1 gallon for about 100 feet. A tank has better mileage (an M1A1 Abrahm anyway) because it has a jet turbine as the main engine. This mean better mileage, not good mine you (about 1 gallon per 5 miles, I think) just better then a Dragoon. I guess either way those milage numbers are pretty cruddy compared to a conventional car. Compared to Grand Arms Panzer it doesn't even use gas and has a nearly infinite range. But a critcal hit could cause all power generators to explode, making a nice 1000 Km radius hole in the ground... Yeah?

ya i heard about that truck its supposed to retail for over us100 gs when it enters the market... weird its supposed to be modelled on the cab of a semi... i dunno to me it seems like an idea that will be tough to market, especially since rising gas prices have really hurt the suv market... it seems like the ppl who would find a semi-like suv attractive are trailer-trash nascar fans and the like, and they sure as hell dont have 100gs to spend on a truck like that, much less the money to keep that thing operating.... im sure its gas mileage compares to oh i dont know a tank or something... but who the hell am i kidding that thing would be sweet to drive if only i wasnt some poor shit white trash.... at least i dont watch nascar tho....

Paras, that picture IS photoshopped. I can guarantee you as much. Maybe they didn't modify the subject matter, but automobile advertisers know that a mere camera can never make their product as shiny and vibrant as a little computer processing will.

The chetrooper image is rad eh? I saw it a little while ago, but my favourite picture was always this one: chetrooper. Who the hell IS that Castro look-alike??? Downright creepy if you ask me.

Ultimate Transformable Heavy Destroid Unit Hybrid vehicles? Why don't they make transforming vehicles like Grand Arms Panzer? I suppose a Cold Fusion Reactor as well as a Alpha engine, Beta generator, and Gamma Device on a vehicle is not something too appealing for the average consumer.

It looks photoshopped. I was sure it was photoshopped. I guess I was wrong. It's a Commercial eXtreme Truck (CXT). You can't sell anything these days without the word (e)Xtreme anymore.


So you get all the attributes of a commercial truck – but you don’t need a commercial driver’s license to drive it.



Here a handy bumper sticker, should you decide to go out and grab one of these fine machines:



On the topic of hybrids, the Chetrooper.

Okay, my bad; The Go! Team does NOT feature 2 ex-members of Bikini Kill. Although apparently there's another older band with the same name that DOES. So try not to get the 2 bands confused as I obviously just did.

Also, I'm getting the impression that the Go! Team is British... which doesn't bode well for my prediction considering the anti-british dissent of american indie-kids lately.

I also FINALLY found their official webpage: www.thegoteam.co.uk

If the Peanuts gang produced hip-hop. The yeah yeah yeahs meet the Jackson 5.

Keep your eyesn'ears peeled for The Go! Team!!! While Eric may have made the prediction that Prodigy's new album will be huge among the more mainstream-kids this year, I on the other hand am now predicting that The Go! Team will be huge among the indie-kids this year. Wait-and-see, I suppose. This band even features 2 members from Bikini Kill!
