Well I didn't think you could get any fatter, so I guess we were both mistaken... I would never be insane enough to even THINK about doing something like that...


bah.....at least i can see my toes. You have to take photos of yours...and then subject the rest of us to them in sensoround. The only thing better than snapping photos of the interior of a B-17 would be snapping a photo of you stuck between the bomb racks.....


pffffft.

Darn... I thought we would finally know...

Schumacher "revealed" as the Stig

by BBC


The Stig, a mystery driver who tests high-performance cars on Top Gear, has been "revealed" as Michael Schumacher.




The seven-times Formula 1 champion dressed as the show's famous driver and removed his helmet during an interview with presenter Jeremy Clarkson.

However, an appalling driving performance by Schumacher at the end of the show cast doubt on the "revelation".

Clarkson told viewers: "I don't think Michael Schumacher is the Stig".

The presenter had earlier revealed in his column in the Sun that Stig's identity would be a "staggering surprise" to viewers.

"As a television moment, it's up there with Neil Armstrong walking on the... corpse of JR Ewing," he added.

Earlier, a BBC spokesman said: "As Jeremy said, in tonight's Top Gear Stig will remove his helmet for the first time."

After the show, a BBC spokeswoman would not confirm whether or not Schumacher was the genuine Stig, or a stunt to mark the first episode of a new series of Top Gear.

"You have to bear in mind that Top Gear is an entertainment programme. We never reveal who or what The Stig is," she said.

But fans of the show remain unconvinced as to his identity. One fan, James2001, wrote on a Digital Spy forum: "You're very gullible if you believe it really is him."

Another fan, Mijath, said: "People's fascination with the identity of The Stig mystifies me. Tonight's unveiling was always going to be a joke, and a brilliant one it was."

Peter Lawton, consumer editor of What Car? magazine told the BBC he thought it was "a nice publicity stunt".

"I don't think it was for real - it was good fun and nice to see Schumacher playing along," he said.

He also said he knew who the real Stig was, but added: "My lips are sealed."

Perry McCarthy, a former Formula 1 driver, was the original Stig, wearing black overalls for his appearances.

He was replaced with a new Stig, dressed in white, after he revealed his identity in his 2002 autobiography.

In fact he's the opposite of Flashman, a brave man looked upon as a coward and a bit of a loser with the ladies. If you can get your sticky mitts on a copy I heartily recommend it.

"Discussion" is not really the right term, is it?

I refer you all to the Monty Python sketch:

Man:
An argument is a connected series of statements intended to establish a proposition.

Other Man:
No it isn't!

Man:
Yes it is! 'tisn't just contradiction.

Other Man:
Look, if I "argue" with you, I must take up a contrary position!

Man:
Yes but it isn't just saying 'no it isn't'.

Other Man:
Yes it is!

Man:
No it isn't!

Other Man:
Yes it is!

Man:
No it isn't!

Other Man:
Yes it is!

Man:
No it ISN'T! Argument is an intellectual process. Contradiction is just the automatic gainsaying of anything the other person says.

Other Man:
It is NOT!

Man:
It is!

Other Man:
Not at all!

Man:
It is!

etc, etc

Status: offline 		Sort of similar to the "discussion" going on about the Pz I, where Castor "Wehrmacht/SS Fanboy" Troy seeks to "dispute" my negative opinion about tankettes like it by stating that Germany took over all of Western Europe with stuff like it, and oh, BTW, Denmark didn't resist the German occupation on 4/9/40.

Amazing how that last one always gets thrown in there when somebody disagrees with me and sees I'm from Denmark. Wonder how he'd react if I suggested that he and all Austrians are culpable for Hitler not being smothered at his birth?

Piece of ****...

Sure wish somebody'd stick a tropedo in it.

I try to throw in a little asinine humor (sorry, that's my entire range) to lighten things up, and what do I get? "Blah, blah, blah, blah {rolleyes}". I call the sucker on it, and what does he say? "I didn't mean to offend anyone." I tell ya, I'm trying real hard to be a good boy around here and not let people irritate me, but I was on the verge of telling this hockey puck what he could do with a rolling chocolate-frosted donut...
