Apparently a posting on a Fark thread related to Scientology becoming more like a religion... that became rather a hard crash inside my head when I saw it. So I share the pain of the train wreck:

I fully expect such a deed to be very difficult, and very painful, to accomplish, though. Except, perhaps, for Doug's wife. Tongue

The same time Toyota was trying to debunk the idea that nothing is wrong with the electronic throttle of their cars, a Prius at 1300 local time went out of control from a stuck throttle on the 8 freeway in San Diego. The car was doing 90 mph. The driver called 911. The CHP managed to get a cruiser in front of the car and slowed it down to a stop. The driver was shaken, but unhurt. If this Prius had a fix and still went out of control, it doesn't look good for Toyota.

[STORY] [UNFINISHED] Not Just An Adventure, It's A Job

Posted by: M Fnord - 03-09-2010, 01:57 AM - Forum: Fenspace - Replies (2)

So this is a little something I've been kicking around for, oh, a long time now. It's not even close to finished, but the story-as-is makes for a nice little look into the pre-war life of the Soviet Air Force. I'm kicking it out just to see what people think. Enjoy! --Mal

September 1, 2010
Bob Hope Airport
Burbank, CA, USA, Earth

Forget everything they say about Los Angeles; this is the true center of Hollywood assholism. Nothing but studios and overdevelopment as far as the eye can see. Hot and sunny overdevelopment, too. Southern California is the home of the dreaded reptoids, and their lizardy mark can be found all over the damn place.

So there we were, chilling (ha) on the tarmac at Hope Field, deep in the heart of Burbank. It's the closest airport to Tinseltown, even if it is technically only a regional, so when the client requested we pick him up near the office, it only made sense to land there. Hell, it beat trying to land at LAX. Hope might not be properly equipped for fencraft, but good Lord Xenu the traffic is easier to handle.

Truthfully, I wouldn't have landed in the US at all had I a say in the matter; the last time we were in American airspace our departure was accompanied by angry men, a hail of gunfire and the rockets' red glare. It wasn't my idea of a good time. Even with the shiny new Kandor Treaty forgiving us our sins, there was bound to be some rent-a-cop somewhere who hadn't gotten the “please don't shoot these guys” memo. So that added a nice little edge of mortal peril to the whole shebang.

The client was insistent that the mountain come to Mohammed, not the other way round, and he was willing to pay triple for the privilege. And hell, even evil commie fen bastards have to eat, right? Not to mention that triple pay would eliminate all the bills we still owed for Korolev. Financial solvency ahoy!

We landed a little before noon, expecting the client to be waiting with all his gear and entourage at the general aviation apron, as requested. Because the universe is a perverse beast, neither hair nor hide of the client was to be found.

“So, where's the guy?” KJ asked... somebody. Me, maybe, or the airport, or Burbank in general.

Grumbling, I pulled out my devil cellphone and called the client's office. At once I was greeted by a cheery receptionist. “Yes,” I said, “this is Captain Fnord. I'd like to speak with Mr. Cameron, please.”

“I'm sorry, Mr. Cameron is in a meeting right now, can I take a message?”

I very carefully didn't start swearing into the phone. Receptionists are people too, and venting my wrath on the help is just poor form. Instead, I said “Of course. Please tell Mr. Cameron that his contracted transport is at Hope Airport on schedule, and that the fee goes up 50% for ever hour past noon he keeps us waiting? And,” I added in the sweetest voice I could muster, “could you be a dear and see that he gets that message around, oh, one o'clock?”

“I, um, I'll be sure to let him know, sir. Thank you.”

“You're very welcome. Ta.” If the man was going to demand our presence in the Americas and not have the goddamned common courtesy to have his shit ready to go when we got here, I was more than willing to make him pay.

“More money?” Elena couldn't keep the grin off her face.

I raised a fist. “If the bourgeois capitalist pigs are going to make us wait like their servants, then it's our moral imperative to take the fuckers to the cleaners!”

Savage Worlds?

Posted by: ECSNorway - 03-08-2010, 09:26 PM - Forum: General Chatter - Replies (1)

	So, I'm considering getting an online game of some sort going - probably an open MUSH of some sort - I do have a setting in mind - and I'm looking for game mechanics to go with it. Savage Worlds has been suggested. I'd be open to advice from folk who have some experience with the system... -- Sucrose Octanitrate. Proof positive that with sufficient motivation, you can make anything explode.

...you should find something funny in this:
Funny or Die’s Presidential Reunion featuring Will Ferrell, Chevy Chase, Ron Howard, Jim Carrey, Fred Armisen, Darrell Hammond, Dan Aykroyd, Maya Rudolph, Dana Carvey, FOD Team, Jake, and Antonio Scarlata. Warning: This is a political commercial of sorts, so if you're in favor of having no regulation on banks and credit card companies, you might not want to watch it.
Posted in General because I think the funny outweighs the political.
