And another day begins...


Boy, for a short work-week... it sure has been a long one! *chuckle*

Hey Mark, congrats on Texas winning the game last night! WHOO HOO!

Ok, well those that know me know I love technology, and I love cool cars. Well, a doctor friend of mine yesterday came by and showed me this. The Bugatti Veyron. The most powerful (1001 HP), fastest (>253 mph) production car on Earth. Ok, the price tag is around 1.4 million dollars, BUT... read the article. It's full of technological marvels.
Before this, the McLaren F1 was arguably the fastest car, but read this from another reviewer:
You might point out at this juncture that the McLaren F1 could top 240mph, but at that speed it was pretty much out of control. And anyway it really isn’t in the same league as the Bugatti. In a drag race you could let the McLaren get to 120mph before setting off in the Veyron. And you’d still get to 200mph first. The Bugatti is way, way faster than anything else the roads have seen.

Ahh... to dream.....

On to the news:
