It's official: Honda kills S2000 roadster

Sad.

TOKYO -- First Honda killed the NSX sports car. Now the S2000 roadster gets the ax.
The Japanese automaker confirmed press reports that it will stop making the two-seater in June, after a decade of production.
Honda is cutting the rear-wheel-drive, four-cylinder S2000 because it would cost too much to make future generations meet environmental regulations in the United States, Europe and Japan, spokeswoman Yasuko Matsuura said today.

found the news here who are a bunch of bitches. Making you sign up to read a whole story. b/s

The S2000 is pretty awesome, hopefully someday it will make a comeback along with the NSX.





In case you didn't know

Google "worst band in the world"

I guess Google fixed it. It now comes in 4th

Also, I like how my right-click spell check wants the name Google capitalized. Good job spell check, Google is more important than god. (Which in fact my right-click spell check does not want me to capitalize.)

Whats around

Other than videos, click the links for goodness. You may also like how some of the links say nothing about what its actually going to, its all great, trust me.

This is gross, but I bet that would be pretty tough to do.


For Jessica. Not saying that Jessica wastes (cause I know she has an arsenal of metal straws) but these washable Bamboo straws are awesome.


Good lookin' cookies.

LaCie USB flash drive that looks like a key.

I'd throw one away, but pretty awesome.

You can pre-order this piece of awesomeness.

Look at all these. Good photos dude, but what the fuck? (pretty much the last bit at the bottom.)

HEY DALLAS, THIS COULD WORK.

straight gangsterdom.

Hey Jessica and JohnL, I have an idea about the upcoming color ways on the rubber player... I predict the following colors will be the colors of the watch hands. So the next one I call will be lime green. Just like the hand of the current color release (blue.) Maybe, but thats what I say happens.

Dis nigga.

I want it soooo bad, and its at such a good price.





So this is the camera I have to buy in may.

the success or appropriateness of an argument, an accusation, or a witty point

I want to meet Bobby Flay and start up a conversation. At some point I would hope he state a statement of states, I then would say, "Touche Mr. Bobby Flay."


1. Touche and Bobby Flay sounds fantastic together.
2. I'd say Mr. 'cause I'm sure he demands respect.

Current craigslist fun.

Oh snap son.

This is a pretty good deal.

This person obviously doesn't know what they have. The manuals are a gold mine.

Not doing this.

Two things. 1. Sporting goods? 2. $150?!?!

Business plan? Your thoughts?

I'm thinking as I type. This is the idea..

Bicycle delivery of beer, and I suppose Alcohol. You call, tell me what you want, I get items and deliver them to your door where you pay cost of items plus $5 each "pack" "case" "bottle."

Helps from people going out to get booze after they've already had some, prevents d.u.i.'s, death, killing someone, or even worse scratching your hubcap when you scrape the curb to park.

Helps for lazy asses.

Helps for under-prepared host/hostess of a party they can't leave.

I don't think I would use my current cruiser three-speed, but maybe my Peugeot 10 speed. Build/buy some heavy duty racks, or towing system to fit multiple packs of all kinds and sizes.

Of course there would have to be a certain range I would have to stick to, maybe a mile radius. It would be bangin' here in the tower district I think.

There could be price breaks for the more you order, like 5 packs for the price of 4. OR obviously the bigger pack or case they order, the better value it would be for them.

There are some crazy racks out there, so don't let that hold your opinion on this back. But what do you think?

Just an idea.

UPDATE

5 minutes after original post. I don't know how I would feel doing this in Fresno. Hmmmm.

UPDATE #2

Maybe 10 minutes after the 1st update. Some lame ass would probably end up trying to jack me of everything. I still think its a pretty okay idea. Maybe just not for me... idk. I'm up in the air.

Awesome Flickr photo group.

Leo Romero, going up.

Not sure if you've seen the new skateboarder cover or not. Leo Romero on the cover doing an eight stair rail going up! And he does it from flat. Insane.

Here is a video of him at the maloof money cup.

Epic indoor skatepark.

"The Epic Indoor Skatepark will be one massive piece of fun. Located just outside of Sacto it boasts a variety of different obstacles that you most likely haven’t seen in a park yet. 36.000 square feet street course, 40 feet mini ramp, a bowl, a mini sized carlsbad grass gap, a “sushi dish” manual pad that looks like hours of fun, various gaps, stairs, ledges, rails, wobbles and so on. Here’s a preview session with Brandon Biebel, Matt Miller, Chris Ray, Blue, Corey Duffel, Taylor Bingaman and others to give you a slight impression on a tremendous indoor adventure that opens on 14th of march."

found at radcollector. Go there and watch the video. Amazing.

Touring with Lily Allen

Natalie Portman's shaved head They're good, and ridiculous. I checked on Lily Allen shows here in CA. Sold Out it seems. San Diego house of blues, The wiltern in l.a., and the warfield in S.F. If you have an extra ticket, or want a friend to go with, let me know. Really, I want to go bad.

Imogen Heap marching band status.

I saw this awhile back, but never put it on here. Marching bands, when good, give me goosebumps. This is a good one. "Beyer Marching Band from Clovis, California play Imogen Heap's stellar hit, Hide and Seek."



update I guess Beyer marching band isn't from Clovis, it performed in Clovis. Take that up with d15k0zach

12 years ago today... Greatest accomplishment ever.

Talk shit on California, then come to California? We stepped up, and took care of your bitch ass.

forget the title.

Are You Serious?!?! www.rickisnotserious... Forget all that for this one. I have very seriously been contemplating a big part of my life for the past little bit. My diet.

I remember when I was eleven or so I saw The Simpsons episode where Lisa goes vegetarian. It struck me right then, I needed to do that. I told my mom that's what I wanted to do. She was fine with it, fixed me meals without meat. Then it was time to go with my dad, he would take me Tuesday, Thursdays, and every other weekend. He was having none of it, had me continue to eat meat like there was no choice.

I started working at Guitar Center in September 2004. Went vegetarian at the beginning of October that year. On my twentieth birthday it had been one month, I hadn't told anyone 'til then. Since I was old enough to fend for myself there was no stopping me.

In April 2006 I had a six month stint with being a Vegan (dietary only, I wear the fuck out of some suede shoes, and leather belts.) That was good to experience I think, cause now I know how much I fucking love Cheese and everything having to do with cheese. Also, I can talk shit on it a whole lot better. Milk isn't rape you fucking idiots. Cows get relief from it, it needs to happen. There was a scientific experiment done (i don't know where, or by who, nor am I going to look it up, I heard it on NPR like 4 years ago.) The experiment was setting up a mechanical device that cows could walk up to, stand above, and get milked. Without a dog herding them, or people wrangling them up. The cows went willingly to this machine every couple of days to get relieved. I digress. I still don't drink milk, I just don't like it. I'm all about soy milk, and will always be. But you know cheese, butter, eggs, got damn I love 'em.

So whatev, back to vegetarian. Still today. I'm all about it, I love not eating animals. Thats why I do it, for the animals. I love all animals so much. I feel I have a very good connection with them, and their feelings.

But...

... When I went vegetarian back in 2004, I didn't even like most meat meals. Porkchops hated, steaks of any kind were horrible to me. Don't even get me started on roast beef...

... I now feel like my taste buds, and eating habits have matured so much since then. Not only to normal things such as onions (can't live without,) and fancy cheeses. Now I have a broadened horizon on different ways to cook, prep, and accompany foods. Cooking myself, and enjoying it so much makes me wonder if I'm doing my self a dis-service for "quiting" before I ever got "started."

The two television channels I watch the most are HGTV, and the Food Network. (we can leave espn out, I don't want to count the eight plus hours its on continuously during the night. I like to fall asleep to it, plus I'm weird and have to sleep with the t.v. on. Fuck you power bill.) On the food network I like watching Diners, Drive-ins and Dives. It makes me want to try all the specialty foods, if a place is known for it, get it. If it looks good, get it. Its not going to be your moms dried out pork chop, its gonna be some families eighty year old receipt for tender, fall of the bone pork. There is a certain cool-ness (for lack of a better set of words) to it.

So yeah, I'm still debating with myself if I want to do this. This? Go back to eating meat. Lets break it down like this. I love it, I like not supporting the killing of animals. Some of it is gross, even to people who love meat. But damn.

Let me also say, I used to be nearly 140 pounds of pure un-adulterated MAN, I'm now 120 lbs... of pure un-adulterated MAN. I know for a got damn fact that its not solely because I'm vegetarian, or even the least bit the reason. It because I'm not in the financial situation to support the cost of food, to nutritional value ratio that vegetarian food provides. Yeah its fortified the fuck out of stuff, but that now makes that one item $8 compared to this meal that had everything home made for a few dollars cheaper. If I had grips and grips of money would I stay vegetarian? I don't know.

I guess July August is Tuna season down south in the San Diego/Mexico region. My good friend John has a boat and lives down there. If I were to go out on his boat with him and he caught a tuna, he would cut it open cut the meat away, rinse it, eat it. I think I would have to join. Its raw (harhar, fuck you I'm talkin' like down and dirty, not the un-cooked-ness of it.) the most gangster thing you could do, never have I or would I be able to have sushi, or Sashimi.

So yeah, that's what I'm going through right now. Still not sure, maybe I won't.

I'll tell you this much, if I do, I'm not going to be stupid as shit about it. No taco bell/in-n-out fuck ass meat. No Sushi that's not somewhere within 10 miles to the ocean. No dumb shit. Nothing from a chain restaurant. Just specialty stuff, or home made.

I'm going to bed.

Twitter.

I don't have one, worry not. I do however check a decent amount. For the next few weeks this column will turn into more of a twitter. Less pictures, more links, more videos, and more just sayin' check this and that out. I'm going to be on this adventure, I'm doing that task. So on and so on.

A couple of twitters I check.

Lily Allen
The Real Shaq

Also, changed from blue and green links/visited links to Red and Blue. Patriotic son.

Very cool.

Find me some of this! found here. (which has some crazy out there stuff.)

FYI:

Newman's own has a bunch of great stuff, sure you may be familiar with their great pasta sauces, or salad dressings. Well did you know they had other great products like Fig Newmans , and even Organic pet food.

YUM.

Sony vaio P

Man, I really think this thing is super cool. Not a net-book, and Ultra portable.
1.33GHz Intel® processor, Up to 60GB hard drive, available 128GB SSD, 2GB RAM all in an 8in. pocketable. Thats right, pocket-able, it can fit in a jacket pocket. $899 isn't that bad. I hear the mouse nub is super accurate too. Those in Japan can order up the VGN-P90S with a 1.86GHz Atom Z540 processor. Of course, it's a $174 option over the baseline Z520. It needs to come here too, or I need to go to Japan. (via boat of course.)

Chair two thousand and NINE!

I bought this chair today. $10 at a thrift store. I really really like it. Its so cool looking, in fantastic condition, and totally height adjustable. Burnt Orange has totally grown on me in the last year or two. Its not for everything, but it works for some. This is a big picture so you can soak in its full glory.

I want to hold this puppy so close to my face.

http://www.cutethingsfallingasleep.org/

Video, and some info.

This video is funny, and cute.



Also, my flickr pro account expires in 7 days. Last year Eddie bought me a year account, it was so nice of him. Everyone would have thought I'd be able to do it myself by now, but look where we are. Minus we and add me. No where. So, its gonna have to wait for alittle bit, soooo.. not to many pictures will be up on here in the near future. But I'll try and replace with some videos, or just straight up links. Imagine that.

I think Kyle needs a blog, just imagine that thing. It would blow some peoples minds.
