Ender 8 Posted December 31, 2003 Speaking of cleaning guns... last night my sister went out on a date with her boyfriend, and my dad were sitting at the kitchen table cleaning my dad's rifles. It was in his plain view too. He looked so freaked out... I'll never forget the look on his face. :D Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Bad furday 57 Posted January 6, 2004 From the SpeedTv boards... This is a somewhat morbid thread but to keep the facts correct, Francois Cevert was not decapitated. The driver to be decapitated was Austrian Helmutt Koinigg. Driving a Surtess TS16 in the U.S. Grand Prix, on October 6 of the 1974 race at Watkings Glen, on the 10th lap of the race, Koinigg lost control of his car, the result of a deflating tire. The car was pitched & submarined under the armco barrier, & poor Koinigg was ultimately decapitated. Watkins Glen was still trying to recover from the tragic death of Cevert exactly one one year to the very day earlier & to have another driver killed, the start of the end of Watkins Glen hosting F1 races was underway. This was not the only reason for the track to lose its' F1 races, but it certainly did not help matters from a driver's perspective. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Andy 60 Posted January 6, 2004 All books are better than movies that are made from them. My favourite book being Jurassic Park, which is at least a million times better than the movie. And LotR is so far proving to be better than the movies too :) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Roethlisberger 0 Posted January 7, 2004 All books are better than movies that are made from them. There are a few exceptions. The novel that Dr. Strangelove was based off of was terrible. The movie is one of the funniest of all time. M*A*S*H* is a book, but the TV show and the movie are better and funnier than the book. Runaway Jury was a terrible book, but a decent movie.
