That’s one sweet cafe racer: modern mechanicals, retro look and oh that classic air-cooled twin.

Should Republicans Fret Over Their Presidential Field? | Nate Silver
Ouch. With Huckabee’s favorables at the top, I’m reminded of this rumor.
FYI: TPM PollTracker is a fantastic resource for the latest political polls.

That sucks...
I love Bobby Kubica (as the Speed network crew call him) and think he is one of the finest drivers in F!. To a speedy and full recovery then Bobby!

That’s what I need! Not the Veyron (although that would be nice) but the police lights on top. Smart!

Love this new band, the Smith Westerns. The whole record is brilliant, this is just the first song on it.

New Nissan GT-R
I love the performance figures (2.9s 0-60?!?!) and the price tag ($90k) but still can’t get past the weight (almost 4,000 lbs.), the crappy interior (and incredibly badly designed) and the so-so exterior.

New Sony PSP
Pretty cool device, I want me one (to replace my v1 PSP which is showing signs of age and decay).

Fed washed up?
What’s up with my main man Roger Federer? Losing in the Australian Open semis in straight sets to Djokovic!? Is he getting old? His “slump” has definitely curtailed my watching tennis.

ARGH!
Seriously now, why keep devaluating a win in NASCAR when every other car racing series tries to make wins more valuable. The new point system is RETARDED. Or, reading between the lines, it’s perfectly suited to the vast majority of NASCAR viewers (who haven’t completed high school and therefore can’t count too good).
