Hm, I don't remember that one. What I meant was at another race (and I think it involved Schumacher and again Villneuve...)

I think we just found another topic we both agree on for a change. ^^

First it was newer technology dying faster than older ones and now this? Hey, we're finally becoming better friends.

YAY!
Also, I think I never listened to Iced Earth singers before Barlow. I listened to a song or two when Tim Owens was the singer, but I didn't like it.

Well yes, it's either the one or the other, we can agree on that. How boring, two topics and we are both of the same opinion... but I really can't say for sure I never said "Deep Purple is the best band of the 70s", but if I did, then I didn't think of all the other great bands that where big in the 70s (like Led Zeppelin).

Here's a fun argument for us: You said Deep Purple are the best band from the 70s. Will that make you happy?

Nah. It's too forced to really be funny.

Or we could go back to classic Manowar arguments.

Oh no, not again. >_>

Indeed, it's getting so hot out there.

That'll be tomorrow, when I'm doing my charity walk. 20 miles along the tow path. Should be relatively easy, save for the last 5 miles.

Removing yourself from the gene pool in a profoundly stupid way. There are occasionally the wierd and wonderful "Living Darwins", when people only manage to castrate themselves.

Haha yeah I read something there about a guy who ignited some old explosive he found in his grandma's house, panicked and stuck it between his legs XD

Needless to say he was not able to have babies anymore. He also lost some limbs I believe.

Ah yes - some people deserve that fate. How else will the human race prosper?

And now of course they lose in Game three in OT. Speaking of losing, did you hear about Galarraga losing a perfect game to a bad call?

Yeah. Kudos to Jim Joyce for saying he made a bad call and the way that the pitcher composed himself.

That douche can never make the right decision. The game was already lost for the Indians and to save the blushes of Joyce and Jason Donald, the kid who was embarrassed to get a hit that broke up the no-hitter, they should just record it as a Perfect Game. One referral per game for the managers on plays such as this BUT NOT BALLS & STRIKES, that is still the umpire's discretion. You can't challenge a challenge and so forth.

Natural selection doesn't work in the slightest. At least not for the human race. Just have a look at people when they are driving cars, it's amazing (or more like "sad") how idiots like this manage to survive.
Just two examples: I was driving with my girlfriend back from Gelsenkirchen to Hamburg, we where on the Autobahn, left lane. Suddendly some jerk blows a horn behind us, my gf changes to the middle lane. That jerk behind us overtakes us, slows down a bit, flips us a bird and accelerates again. I mean, WTF?
Second example: We where driving with two cars (the driver in the first car new the way, we didn't so the other car drove in front of us). Again some jerk can't wait and flashes his lights behind us, he overtakes us. Well, okay you can see that a milion times each day, nothing too unusual. But: The guy in the car before us can't change lanes, because there's another car right next to him.
But our jerk? He can't wait and he overtakes the other car... only thing is: We where already on the very left lane! He overtook the other car on the little grass border left of the track!

Examples like those let me lose the faith in the human race and I always think: "Darwin was wrong." when I see something like this. >_>

Yes it's strange how some people can turn into complete morons when they get behind the wheel. We always hope that they will only kill themselves and not harm anyone else when they are driving like that.

Ah, yes. My favourite Belgian GP, by far. I'd been watching F1 religiously since 1996, the year that Damon Hill finally won the championship. I'd grow accustomed to it during the late 80s and early 90s under the tutelage of my grandfather. Hard to believe that this is the 15th year I've watched every face flag to flag.

But back to the crash, Schumacher had a rare moment of mental block and just drove over the back of Coulthard. I think that Schumacher could quite easily have seen that Coulthard was slowing down and moved off the racing line to pass him. Sure, get out of the way in places like Monaco, but in Belgium, there is plenty of space, especially when your opponent is running 30-40 mph slower than you.

I took great delight in waiting for my brother to return from a day out and asking him if he wanted to know who won. When he replied no, I asked him if he wanted to know where Damon finished, to which he replied "go on then." All I said was first and then had to run, laughing all the way.
