Here is the long awaited video of Super Chicken Fighter 2′: Jared’s Revenge. I know I took way too long to edit and upload this, and I apologize. I actually finished this quite a while ago, but due to youtube’s 10 minute limit I was unable to get it hosted, but oddly enough, Google doesn’t have the same limitation.

Information on our first attempt at this challenge is available here. Video from that attempt is available here. Once you’re up to date with our spicy adventures, continue on to the one below. The video is pretty long and I guess I could have shortened it, but I think their reactions during the competition add to the flavor.

Keep in mind that Jared has agreed to do the challenge again, so if you or any one you know can handle very very spicy food, let me know and we can schedule another attempt.

This is in jest of course, don’t hurt me!

Elin has this awesome photogenic stare that gets us to laugh every single time, and well, I was lucky enough to catch it on camera. Of course, it could possibly be blamed on the alcohol that was drunken from the ass of a dragon. Maybe, just maybe that could have this kind of affect on you. Of course under normal circumstances she looks just fine. Cute even. So if you’d like to apply I can forward your responses onto her. (^_-)

I went through some of the old pictures I had queued up and finally put them together into a new gallery. It’s long over due, but it’s better late than never. There are some fun photos — like Wayland being attacked and molested! Don’t forget Jared’s favorite Mariachi rolls.

On the topic of hillarious fortune cookies, here is a sampling of a few we’ve gotten recently.

Here’s a photo to go with the ad. (^_-);;

You. Yes, you. If you’re a repeat visitor, or someone I usually chat with on AIM or hang out with in person — I’m not avoiding you, or anyone else for that matter. I’ve just been busy and haven’t really felt like sitting for hours in front of the computer waiting for you to respond. If you do see me online without an Away message and you don’t get a response from me, I could be just listening to music — I have a remote that I can use to skip tracks or change the volume — using that takes me off idle mode.

If you need to reach me, you can always just leave a descriptive message on the aforementioned AIM, don’t just say yo, hey, a, or hello. I’ll respond to those eventually but if you log off before I get back to the screen I’ll never be able to get back to you. I apologize for not getting back to each and every one of you. I will do a better job of doing so, or at least marking myself as away when I’m not there.

Of course if there is something important, you could go back to using good old fashioned email or just call me. Oddly enough I’ve been using my phone a lot more lately.

Regarding the site — 20,000 hits in less than a year! That’s some motivation to keep the site going! I have a bunch of content that I’ve been cooking up and I am hoping to start updating on a more regular basis, since apparently someone out there is reading this. I’ll outline my plans in an upcoming post.

Bentley will get a kick out of this. Maybe I hit my head when I flew off my bike, but for some odd reason I felt compelled to purchase a Honda. After spending several hours behind the wheel of Don’s NSX, I was really tempted to buy one. Why?

It was pretty fun — handled well, good low end torque. It was also quiet and comfortable, two qualities that my FD3S RX-7 lack — though only due to upgrades. I think I’m just getting old and I want something therapeutic to drive.

My only complaint? It was fracking slow. It seriously needs boost. It was nice though, probably the only Honda vehicle I’d ever buy.

Thankfully I came back to my senses and decided not to join the dark side. I am still trying to figure out what car I should get to use as a daily driver though. I am sorta leaning towards a NB Miata, but that could just be Marvin’s influence. I don’t know if I want to spend a lot, but I was thinking perhaps an Infinti Q45, a Jaguar S-Type, or a Mazda Millenia since these aren’t cars you see all the time. Any other ideas?

Now, my primary fun mode of transportation is sort of disabled — at least I can’t rely on it starting without it cooling down after a drive due to it’s engine flooding constantly, so I decided to take my older RX-7 (a GSL-SE). Now despite it’s somewhat disheveled exterior, it has been an awesome, reliable car. I’ve taken it to both Buttonwillow and Thunderhill Raceways and used it as a daily driver for the last year. There was no reason for me to expect there to be any problems whatsoever.

Guess what. I loose my clutch at the top of Highway 9. Now, normally this means the car is disabled and has to be towed. But thanks to Ghetto Dave I learned how to do clutchless shifting and was able to make it back to San Francisco somewhat unscathed.

While disheartening, it wasn’t all bad Don was nice enough to let me drive his Acura NSX throughout the twisty roads of Highways 9, 1, and Skyline (35). Seeing as though both my RX-7s are disabled, this ways *almost* enough to get me to sell them to buy one of my own.

Of course this wouldn’t be all that interesting unless something else happened, and oh, there was much more.

While driving, a car spun out just a few feet away while I was driving the NSX. That car slammed into the side of a hill, and luckily I was smart enough to not be following closely and I braked early enough to avoid impact. Now, the RX-7 that was behind me, he stopped in time, but the two Toyota Celicas behind him hit each other, and ultimately hit him. Not fun. Photos from our jaunt.

Of course this wouldn’t be all that interesting unless something else happened, and oh, there was much more.

Even after all this, it was barely noon. I started working on my other car. Besides being prone to flooding, it’s passenger side headlight motor had become disconnected due to my negligence in installing new HID lamps. Of course I’m not bright enough to remove the correct fuse, and while fixing it it decides to bite me. Fun times.

By now I’m tired and quietly cursing to myself — when Marilyn, Marvin, and Nelson show on their bicycles, I’m somewhat relieved and happy to not think about cars for a bit.. So we go for a jaunt through Golden Gate Park. Partially due to exhaustion, and partially due to my inexperience, I end up flying off my bike on a dirt trail. During which, I loose a contact lens. Fun.

So I have two dead cars, a bruised and battered body, a slight limp, and one contact. Of course I had to go to work the next day to deal with Day Light Savings. Wonderful.

At least I can look forward to better days to come. Inevitably someone will leave a comment and tell me to quit bitching, but since I’ve been getting a lot of questions about what’s going on with me, I figured I could bitch, just this once.

Part of an entire series of gummy bear sculptures by YaYa Chou, this chandelier looks both tasty and retro-chic. How long till the bears start to melt and get covered with ants? “I once laughed while eating gummy bears and honked a little bit out my nose. I had a tangy burning sensation in my sinuses for three days. Looking at this chandelier makes me feel like I have to go snort some water or something.”

Obligatory Simpsons Quote: “That is the rarest gummi of them all, the gummi Venus de Milo, carved by gummi artisans who were exclusively in the medium of gummi.”

Chris Vogt and Schuyler Senft-Grupp, two MIT Engineering alums, fulfilled a “mission from the Nacho Gods,” to build “the beast,” which was directly inspired by a nacho fountain seen in Talladega NIghts. All it took was 4 gallons of water, 6 feet of copper tube, 1 plumber’s torch, 4 hose clamps, 4 plastic bowls, 1 aluminum water heater drip pan, 1 emergency drill pump, 1 power drill, various PVC bits, some string, 2 heating plates, 1 wooden spoon, several bags of chips, and of course, 6 gallons of cheese. Three days and six hours later, “the beast” came to life, overflowing with nacho goodness for Vogt, Senft-Grupp, and a posse of fellow nacho-lovers to worship / devour.
