I did a bit of that this weekend
hand gazing I mean, mainly 'cos my varifocals arrived from Hong Kong whilst I was off my tits, and it was really trippy being able to get the TV and my hands in focus simultaneously.
It'll be a while before I get the hang of that but needy as my eyes seem to have suddenly decided in the last month to age 20 years.
Least I wasn't daft enough to pay Specsavers £300 for them like a mate did, daft sod...
knew it was coming, i've got about 6 months left before i'm blind in my left eye, then they'll do the cataract in my right eye, so i'll still be able to see, hopefully

I suppose that's something
mine just turned up, along with a load of eye floaters they tell me may take years to clear, happened after a fit of coughing I had from a chest infection, nobody seems to be able to tell me why but I got a new glasses prescription handed to me by Boots and ran out before they could try and sell me anything!
possibly ruptured blood vessels caused by coughing
i was born with twisted nerves in my face, which connected my left eye to my jaw, under the skin, fortunately. after 15 years of surgery, you can't tell there's anything wrong and the nerve damage has turned my eyes from blue to green, which is a bonus. however, the nerve degeneration has sped up in the last few years and i WILL go totally blind eventually.

Sympathies my love
as you say at least you had plenty of warning n know what's goin on, guess that's summat.
I like stuff like that, as a way to make your mark on your environment, so much nicer than tagging and such, tho lord knows what the tree thinks if it.
I know it it a picture he just found. but he has added the toap... And there are loads of other entries in the challenge, that are just pictures of a road sign, that people have just found, and added toap to that the same as he has.. People are't going "Oh you found that picture of that road sign on the internet and just put toap on it"

it's 'caps lock' on US keyboards
but I don't know what 'shift iock' is... EDIT: Duh, I couldn't figure out why the "L" in "LOCK" wasn't uppercase.

Caps Lock only does letters and Shift Lock includes the other keys.

It's a sign! Look out for flying cars!
And prolly not worth its own thread
Don't know whether this works with the reboot; only saw two episodes and the car didn't jump over anything like it did in the original.

I don't think I've seen any of the reboot.
But I do remember KITT being able to do pretty much anything it damn wanted. It was like Batman's plot convenie- I mean, utility belt.

KITT gave me a long and abiding love of Pontiac Firebirds
which I will happily indulge when I make my millions. I'll even swallow my disappointment that the cars don't talk to me or have a little row of glowing red LEDs beneath their bonnet.
I'm sure someone out there has customized a Firebird to some extent, to be a bit like KITT.
The LEDs would be easy, just a case of what kind of computer could be used.
(Bourbon FoxBourbon is a moron,
Sun 7 Aug 2011, 16:08,

I'm sure that about a third of the owners of third generation Firebirds
have done exactly that.... :) The LEDs would be a doddle, actually. I could have done that with a few LEDs and a few 555 timers when I was at school. I'd have no clue now but frankly if we could figure it out then when we didn't give a toss I'm pretty sure I could figure it now.
The talking would be a bit tougher though. I guess I could program a little computer with a selection of stock phrases and run it through a synthesiser. It wouldn't be quite the same, but it would be *something*, at least.
Even if I don't get a Firedbird I'd still want something like that for my phone.
It'd be so cool.

If it's impossible, you can bet it will be done by the end of the show
For all the shows at that time, it was pretty much the same. There was an episode of Knight Rider where the car said jumping over the ramp on the back of a moving truck in a stunt show was not possible, but it was done with apparent ease. And then there was that episode of Airwolf where they managed to loop the loop.
I did come up with an idea for a parody of a Knight Rider-like show many years ago. It was a making of documentary, and there would have been a bit where the producer gathered everyone together that would have gone like this:
Producer: Many of you know <actor's name> who was staring in our sister show involving a high-tech motorcycle, Street Eagle. Unfortunately, he died earlier on today as a result of a high speed crash Crew member: What happened? Producer: Well, we managed to build a motorcycle capable of travelling through rush-hour traffic at 300mph. During a practice run, someone opened their car door.

Then again, it was the 80's.
If it was even a little bit out of logical thinking, it could be done, and done perfectly. For example, the A-Team's infamous cabbage gun. We need ingenuity like that in the special forces.
And as for the parody, I think even today that would be fitting; maybe not as much as back then, but then again all the old shows are coming back, along with trademark absurdity. Go for it. ^^

I only ever saw my first ever real live badger about 2 years ago.
But this year I'v seen about 5 of them, I always imagined they were going to be beautiful pure black and brilliant white and clean looking...!! What a shock it was to behold the shaby, dirty, mangy dark dark brown and cream things that scuttled accross the road looking like a worn out 20 year old rug that had never been cleaned...!!

I think the only time I've seen a badger was in a farm sort of place a year or two ago.
It wasn't as shabby as you described a wild badger, of course.
I've seen both wild and 'domesticated' foxes, and I only really notice very subtle differences.

When I see a nice one I always go "Arh lovely fox" when I she a shabby one I always go "Arh poor thing" Just my first ever experience of seeing the badger (Which I alaways thought would be a real treat) was, "What the fuck is that hidious flea ridden mess walking accross the road"..!!
