I really, really, really enjoyed the documentary about Ayrton Senna ("Senna") and highly recommend it. I think there's actually a decent movie to be made about the kind of attitude you have to have to drive a car around a track at almost 200 mph.

Right, so which/when race did they crash at?
I felt aswirl with warm secretions.

The (then) Pepsi/Firecracker 400 in July.

Another sort of similar scene to Over the Top.

I didn't recall Russ Wheeler dating Boy George.

Cole knows you don't have to drive through a smoke cloud at full speed right?

I'm not certain he learned his lesson from the crash.

Crazy to see Neil Bonnett in the pre-race interviews knowing he died in an accident at Daytona.

This score is exactly the same as after the Earth is saved (spoiler alert) in Armageddon

Temps are like 80 out right now. These are the days when I don't understand how everyone in the world doesn't live here.

Right now the order is:
1) Thailand
2) Mexico
3) Ecuador
4) Panama
5) Colombia
My Spanish on Duolingo is coming along nicely. I'm not going to start Thai until I know that's going to be a thing because Thai is fucking hard, brah

This isn't the thread for it but what the hell. We were supposed to go spend three weeks in Thailand in January or February of next year but that doesn't look like it's happening. Assuming I can actually get anywhere near what my house is worth in two years, I'm out of there. I should just done it three years ago and scraped for shit I can do online to grind out $20K a year to make the yearly nut.

I'm a pretty smart, resourceful guy. I should have trusted myself to be able to make $2K a month without having to work 40 hours a week.

I was going to write Thailand, but that didn't seem 100% right and I didn't want to infer anything, even though we know.

Days of Thunder is more of a NASCAR parody than Talladega Nights is

If I've learned anything from 90 day fiance, Ecuador and Colombia look awful.

Those are the poors trying to get away from some crappy village. Cartagena or Quito are real cities.
