U2 - Songs of Surrender U2 unplugged... or at least Bono and Edge unplugged because the other two didn't really participate. Some of it is decent, some of it is quite bad, all of it feels unnecessary. I still love these guys but everything they've released for the last 20 years has left me feeling disappointed. I still want to see them live in Vegas later this year though.

Happy birthday, DOTU! Hope you have a special beer picked out!

My goal for my first timed autocross with the Porsche Club was to be faster than at least one 911. I really wanted to send someone home in their sports car knowing they got beat by a practical family four-door. I felt like I could go quite a bit quicker, but mission accomplished. Only car I’m sad I wasn’t faster than was the Dodge Challenger. The rest of them I had no chance of beating if they were driven competently. This is a very fun hobby other than the long drives to and from the remote locations where they host these things. Doing another one in two weeks.

RIP Lt. Daniels.

^ Any good? I love Mel B but I will admit to be pretty skeptical about the new show.

Happy birthday, Fitzy!

Turning and burning with the BMW Club. Macan is heavy and seems to eat tires, but she can really move. People said it looked quite fast but maybe they were just being nice?

One of my absolute favorites! Camissa and hagerty do such a good job with these.

Happy birthday, Nate!

Their catalog is finally on streaming services as of today!

Happy birthday, CS!

Get to the choppa… I mean birthday party! Have a good one!

I watched the entire season of races, know everything that is coming, and yet this show still has me hooked with the unprecedented behind the scenes footage. Netflix does such a good job with this.

Happy birthday, Dan! Not kayaking season but I hope you can get out again on the rivers soon!

What the hell. I'll try one! https://www.wsj.com/articles/starbucks-bets-coffee-infused-with-olive-oil-could-be-the-next-frappuccino-7a079d50?st=j2rvqpxxnl65trz&reflink=desktopwebshare_permalink

Happy birthday!

Damn, you old! Happy birthday, Colin!

Got another car control class on the books (with the BMW club, hopefully they accept my car 🙃) and I'm going to try my first road rally with the Porsche club. When I thought rally I thought of sliding cars around on dirt rally stages but this isn't like that at all. It is more like a scavenger hunt that you do from your car and that rewards precision, not speed. I like it! Trying to nail down a co-driver/co-navigator (@Grahame ?). I think maybe I'll do my first auto cross in April. This car hobby is quite the rabbit-hole of stuff to do. It is helpful that a large portion of hobbyist motorsport seems to be organized on a single website, https://www.motorsportreg.com, making it easy to find out a good amount of what is going on nearby.

Happy birthday, Tice-man!

Happy birthday!

I call bullshit as well until a more reputable source corroborates.

Oh yes. Car and Driver Lightnight Lap 2023. They even lapped the Kia Carnival camera van this year. Amazing what a difference in lap times the "R Compound" tires make! That Audi RS3 punching way above what I'd expect. The z06 vette a cold blooded killer, as expected. https://www.caranddriver.com/features/a42387169/lightning-lap-2023/

Happy birthday, Jeff!

Fuck you, you fucking overgrown rat!
