OK, so I was walking out of Barnes & Noble last night and this book caught my attention. I picked it up and thumbed around...it looked entertaining. But now I cannot remember the name for shit nor what section it was in. The name was something like/on the lines of "There is no escaping death and eventaully we're all going to die".....but I know tha'ts not it... the title was kinda long and funny in explaining the demise of the human race. Clearly satire and not serious subject as TOC shown deathe from robots, nanotechnology, ourselvs, space issues etc...

But dammit I cannit remember the name....meaning I'm going to have to haul my ass back up there and see if I can remember it. I hate my terrible memory.

yeah but rolling over can happen after getting hit. I think it's a good safety measure. Maybe I'll focus on that and race seats/harnesses before more turbo parts..

Can't find a satirical title yet. My best guess so far:

I even have a short 58 second video of an Explorer t-boning a Focus at 30mph from youtube I'll show. Pretty scary shit. Scary because I drive a death trap like that poor Tesla. I'm definitely getting a rollbar soon as hell..

Not doing the speech today though. I'll wait.

Most people who load their SUV's anyway are going over the safe weight capacity of the vehicle.....
