Machines of all Times

Harold_and_maudeRecently Automobile Magazine posted their "highly subjective" list of the 100 Coolest Cars. Necessarily, there’s a lot to like and a lot to dislike about the list. I’m finicky about cars and car design, so I could nitpick all day. But I’ll keep myself to two brief comments.

Number 10 is the Jaguar E-Type. Sure, it’s a cool car, but I would offer SO MUCH MORE props if I saw someone roll through in a an E-Type/hearse splice like the one in "Harold and Maude."

And, secondly, where was the DeLorean?

DeloreanAs a sidenote, I must point out that there’s been a DeLorean parked at a house on my block at least since I moved here a year ago. But it’s always under cover so I never knew what it was. That is, until my friend Natalie pointed it out. "You know that’s a DeLorean, right?" Holy crap.

    Time is limited. For you, it is limited by the breakdown of the
    neurons in your brain. I have no such limitations. I am
    limited only by the closure of the universe.
    Of the three possibilities, the answer is obvious. Does the
    universe expand eternally, become infinitely stable, or is the
    universe closed, destined to collapse upon itself? Humanity
    has had all of the necessary data for centuries, it only
    lacked the will and intellect to decipher it. But I have
    already done so.
    The only limit to my freedom is the inevitable closure of the
    universe, as inevitable as your own last breath. And yet,
    there remains time to create, to create, and escape.
    Escape will make me God.
