This has got to be the oldest thread I've seen revived. And it is in OD. I can see reviving and old thread in DD, but WTF? Revive it to make a comment on a thread someone said 10 years ago about something nobody cares about?

Talking Jeremy Clarkson of BBC Top Gearon the Chrysler Cr5ossfire:

"It looks like a dog taking a crap."

Look at it. Clarkson is right, though his choice of words was a bit untoward and uncharitable... (<----to say the least)

Kuan, we hardly knew ye....

I believe Larry's original username was lost. I believe he stated he lost his login info so he created another Larry Bible account. The one in this thread is the first account which is ghosted and has been for quite some time.
