I have to look this movie up. Only mad max I ever watched was the original.

It is pretty good, you should watch it.

I'd see a doc about that skin condition. It doesn't look healthy.
Also... Why? Car is fine. Just go drive it and have fun.
Or be like me and keep it parked full time... Finally crossed 10k miles. Not quite 4 years.

Seeing the parts from KPower for the K swap kit just got me thinking about it. One of the things I have always been interested in is improving center of mass and F/R weight distribution.

I used to take my Xb fairmont (Yellow MFP model) out after work in Glebe and do my own drift thingy back then. Then go into the pub and drink with Mel occasionally. They asked me if I meant to slide it around like that

Only works if you have an engine that clears the steering rack.

Yeah, I know. There is about maybe 1.5 inches there now. Then a bunch more stuff in the way at about 3.5 inches back.

Rear steer, do away with pesky electric rack. That’s big brain thinking right there.

This morning I was reading a soccer news and one article caught my attention. 13yo kid invaded the field/match to take a pic w one of the player. Make thing unique, his mom riling him to go into the field as well. As a result, he was fined (100 EURO) and 5yrs banned from the stadium. Article itself wasn't interesting, but comments interested me. A lot of ppl commented stating he's just a kid and that punishment is harsh on the kid. Some stating it's ridiculous they don't do anything about racist chanting fans, but kick out innocent kid. Very few stating he broke the rule (invading a field).

2 thoughts on this topic. First, how do I think about the punishment to that kid? I believe in the Law of Consequences, so he got what he did for his action. Harsh or not is individual's opinion. Doesn't matter if he's an adult or a minor, there should be some kind of consequence for his action. Cuz he's minor he shouldn't be getting punished is crazy talk imo. Secondly, what if it was my child, would I think the same? Now I have a daughter, I think about that as well. I wouldn't push my child to do these kind of things and def try to stop it from happening. Even then if it happened, I still accept the Law of Consequences and I'll gladly accept the punishment along with her. Cuz she's minor and I'm her parent, so I should be accepting this punishment as well. Pay the fine myself and make her pay me back slowly. I won't be attending or going to the stadium til the ban is lifted.

Don't wanna go off too much, but I thought ppl commenting were a bit off... or maybe I'm off? lol

I think 5 years is a bit harsh. I'd say 1 or 2 years for the kid and 5 for the mom.

Yea, that along with the fine seems pretty harsh but then again, I would just be look, ugmmm, OK because I'm not likely to come back again anyway. To me it would be more appropriate to just escort them out for the game, at least for a first offense.

My flying chancla would've hit my kid in the head so fast and hard he would've never made it near the fence.
