Didn't have my camera, but, I was driving back from having my G serviced inValencia when I noticed a lot of commotion ahead. Police lights, slowed traffic, folks with towels waving traffic to move over to the left lanes. When I got closer I saw the problem - there was a mid-sized car on the side of the road, its entire front end was engulfed in flames! It was like watching a movie. I worried it was going to explode and shower broken and melted metal and glass over everybody.
Don't know what happened - didn't see anything on the news about it after I got home.

Missing Kevin Pollack Video Clip
"Frankenstein never scared me....marsupials do...'cause they're fast!"
Well, looks like the powerful American Entertainment lobby managed to take the Kevin Pollack doing Chris Walken clip off of the YouTube site. Those of you lucky enough to have seen/heard it will probably miss it as much as I do. Oh well.
Guess it's up to me to brush up on my own Walken imitation and put my own videos on-line.

I Got My Own Domain - Finally!!!!!
Well, the impostor who somehow had secured my domain name apparently failed to pay his bills or something. Today I learned that www.aceyou.com was available once again and I snatched it up. So, therefore, ahem, I AM ONCE AGAIN MASTER OF MY DOMAIN!!!!!!

Airport Security - August 2006
I had the misfortune to be on the other side of the country when all the crap hit the fan regarding possible terrorist bomb schemes on airplanes. So, I got to the airport early, took all the liquids out of my carry-on beforehand, and went thru security with minimum delays.
But then I noticed something - after going thru security, I had to wait 2 hours before I boarded my 1st flight that day. I heard the gate agents telling everyone that no liquids or gels were allowed. Same thing when I waited in the next airport (4 hr wait unfortunately - but that was a scheduling problem, not security). The gate agent told everyone that no liquids were allowed.
But the scary thing was, despite being in an area (after the security checks) where lots of restaurants were present, where almost everyone waiting for a plane was drinking something that could be bought in the eateries and shops in the gate area, DESPITE ALL THIS LIQUID NOT ONE PERSON WAS ACTUALLY CHECKED FOR LIQUIDS AS THEY ENTERED THE GATE TO BOARD THE PLANES!!!!!!! NOT A ONE!!!!
Seems to me it would have been easy for these assholes to hide a powder or even a gel on their person in plastic bags when they went through the security check before they entered the gate area. After that, and before they boarded their plane, they could have purchased a drink, went to the bathroom, mixed up their liquids, then hid it in their carryon luggage. NOBODY CHECKED THE LUGGAGE OR THE PASSENGERS BETWEEN THE TIME OF THE SECURITY CHECK AND THE TIME TO BOARD THE PLANES!!! All anyone did was say no liquids or gels were allowed.
So how is this for a solution: Make all the stores and shops that sell drinks in the gate area put the drinks in OPEN CONTAINERS. Short of that, the only way to minimize the risk would be to either ban drinks altogether or do another bag x-ray and body search right at the gate.
Scary stuff. I was glad to get home.
