If the state had not cut funding for the mental institutions, this project could never have happened.

"Yelling out of cars, turning your speakers out the window to blast your music onto the street, setting off M-80 firecrackers, firing automatic weapons into the airâ€"these are all well and good. But none of them create a merry atmosphere of insouciance and bonhomie quite like a revving motorcycle.

Grooves in the cylinder head?  Magnet on the fuel line?  Plastic air velocity doodad?  Widget whatchamathingy in the whoodinger chamber (ok, that one sounded naughty)?

Everyone knows there's one easy way to increase your gas mileage.  It's so basic, I'm surprised more people aren't doing it.

Not really one thing, but a set of things.  First, put the zip ties back on the frame.  Put on extra if you have them; the more the better.  Next, put your reflectors back on, that's important.  If you have any kind of flame decals, those have to go.  Peel them off, paint over them, whatever you have to do.  If you have any stickers for aftermarket parts that you don't own, definitely peel those off, that'll make a huge difference.  Dynojet or Power Commander stickers are the worst, those can actually lower your gas mileage even if they're stuck on your toolbox.  Scary stuff.

Anyway, follow these simple steps and you're set.  The explanation is so simple, you'll wonder why you never thought of it.  Every time you do one of these simple things you decrease your horsepower; I know this isn't ideal but it can't be avoided.  As your horsepower goes down, your gas mileage goes up.  And if gas prices drop, you feel free to slap those flames back onto your tank.

You can thank me later.

You want a good laugh? Search for "hydrogen booster" and see the nonsense being spouted on that topic. People building little electrolysis units and claiming they can run their car solely or mostly on free hydrogen made by their wonder unit. Most of the videos I've seen show an engine idling with a "booster" made of plastic bottles stuck under the hood. Some don't even apparently show the engine idling, the block and hoses are dead still, looks as though they just overlaid a sound clip of the engine running. And people just lap it up, taking it as fact that you can power a car on water with stuff you can find in your kitchen.

I ordered a time machine on the internet once.

The Delorean was easy. Plutonium was a little difficult. But where did you find a " Flux Capacitor " ?
A conclusion is the place you got tired of thinking

One of my wife's friends belongs to a DeLorean club. Her husband makes Flux Capacitors. He makes movie props and replicas...
