I had recorded an IMSA race at VIR from a few weeks ago. Acura was one of the major sponsors. They went "side-by-side" for a commercial. That's an NSX inside the tire wall north of Turn 14, the top of the Roller Coaster.

It's slightly more unnerving than a software bug in a human-scale six axis CNC chainsaw robot built by a kid with a proven track record of poor decision-making.




Fun fact: the chainsaw was originally invented around 1830 as a medical device to quickly cut bone, such as splitting the pelvis in half to assist in difficult childbirths.

Mind you, anesthesia was not developed until 1846, when William T. G. Morton and surgeon John Collins Warren demonstrated the successful use of diethyl ether.

Yeah...

What's even more crazy, they didn't use anesthetic on surgery of infants till the mid 80's because they didn't feel pain. The 1980's...

Changing gears, new video day was a few days ago!



I am looking forward to more things made there, in the space with more space and soviet dictator vibes...

I remember back in mid 2020, when life was utterly insane as we were preparing to launch a new cable news network. And all that time, I was thinking to myself "Just get to 2021, and this will all be over, and you'll have time to relax, and go back and fix all of the shit you've haphazardly put into place to get this channel on the air."

I did take one week off immediately following the launch in Sep 2020. Drove an RV out to the Dakotas and just totally vanished into the wilderness. One night I actually thought I might die as I got quite lost in a slot canyon an sundown.

It was amazing.

I haven't taken a single day off since then. 2021 has been just as insane as 2020 was. And there are more temporary overhead cables in the machine room today than a year ago. Which embarrasses me.

Oh, and my boss, the VP, tendered his resignation three weeks ago. He's gone a week from tomorrow.


Serious question for everyone: where in the southwest can I go and get lost in for a week or two, where it will be consistently above freezing and not muddy and raining, in an RV, with amazing places to hike / climb, in the Feb - Apr sort of timeframe?

(Even mild overnight freezes can wreak havoc on an RV's water system.)

Watched that one yesterday. Not bad.

Even more amazing: This Old Tony is back! It's been seven months, but he has a new video:



Disclaimer: I haven't watched it yet. I'm kind of saving it for a special occasion. Like when I'm not sleep-deprived and intoxicated. Maybe Sunday.

Most of the Sonoran Desert in AZ would fit that description. Rain could happen anytime, but it's usually heaviest in July-August. IMHO, the best places are at altitude, and can have freezing overnights well into April. If you're living in the RV at the time (heat on, etc), it should be fine as long as it doesn't dip into the 20s.

We just spent a week at Capitol Reef NP in Utah, and it was amazing, but... altitude. Late April... maybe? Moab area is a little lower... Canyonlands NP is awesome. Most of the best parts of AZ are in the mountains.
