The only reason I'd ever buy a dodge product....

(besides their classic muscle cars)


I present to you the 1997 Dodge T-Rex 6X6 Concept





  • high-output 8-liter Magnum V-10 engine:
    • almost 500 hp / 600 foot pounds
  • four-speed automatic
  • computer-controlled adaptive air-suspension system
  • six-wheel drive tandem axle design
  • 8 1/2' cargo box
  • inter-axle differentials providing full-time capability
  • Heavy-duty front transfer case with high torque capability
  • External rear transfer case mounted on the second axle to divert power to the third axle
  • five-position electric shift system:
    • full-time four-wheel drive on the rear axles
    • full- or part-time six-wheel drive with front axle engaged 

Wow! I want one.

Here's another outfit someone's set up nice.

Overheard

My roommate is ultra outgoing and he's comfortable approaching anyone.  Today some random girl walked past our apartment.
Roommate: Hey.
Girl: Oh hey, uh, landon, whats up?
Roommate: That's not my name haha.
Girl: oh, well, you look like landon, just AKA. (walks away)

She was blond.

Out of the darkness, light


I like caves. They're fascinating. I'm by no means any sort of caver or speleologist, but I do love my caves. There's a good set of them west of where I live. It's a good place to spend an afternoon. Just you, a few buddies, some good flashlights and off you go.

Hello Internet!

"The mystery of summoning up words. Where are they in the mind, in the brain? They appear to be an agency from nowhere. They exist somewhere in our ground or in our air. They come from unknown darkness. From a place we normally don't think about"  - Tom Lubbock: a memoir of living with a brain tumour http://www.guardian.co.uk/books/2010/nov/07/tom-lubbock-brain-tumour-language

I’ve started this as a place to share my thoughts on everything and nothing with the world. Facebook used to be my outlet for this sort of thing but I got tired of having facebook friends I barely know commenting on something I’ve posted and then creeping on my profile and stalking my pictures, etc, etc. It’s gotten annoying so… tada! Here I am. I, blogger. Isn’t this exciting?
