Tom Cruise attempts to…open a car door.
I want to laugh at Tom Cruise, becuase he’s a freakin’ goon — but really, who hasn’t had this conversation with a chick when you’re trying to be all polite and open the door for her:
“Honey, it’s locked. No the button, no the other button, no the one with the picture of the lock on it, just press it, no the other button. Next to that one…just press it. No, press it. Press the button. No the other button…” so I kinda feel for the guy.
This is old but good.
As a publicity stunt a few years ago the good ole boys at Maranello decided to race a crappy economy car against a Ferrari Maranello and a Ferrari F1 racer. Check out the head starts they give each car.
Have you got a million bucks handy?

Have you heard of the Pagani Zonda? It’s a 600 horsepower supercar with a 7 liter Mercdedes V-12. Hmmmmn. I think the gas guzzler tax alone on this thing costs more than my first car. Check out Top Gear’s report.
Ferrari Enzo vid from Top Gear.

If you’ve never seen Top Gear, it’s a very cool British car show. It was on here in the states on the Discovery Channel briefly, but got cancelled in favor of repeats of shows where guys weld stuff and yell at each other. In this piece of video they review the Enzo at the factory in Maranello. The tagline says Jeremy Clarkson, but it’s not, it’s the very odd and rather swishy (yet fast) Tiff Needel. It’s worth a watch to see Tiff hang the Enzo out like he’s driving a rental car with full coverage.
