What makes a good substitute for crack? my friend wants to know.
you may want to check with your lawyer for legal advice.
LOL. Thats good.:tongue:
No, Yes. Although, I forget which answer goes with which question. :tongue::biggrin:
No, but they're not evil either. One makes their own destiny.
There is no compelling evidence to suggest so. One is always, of course, free to believe whatever one likes.
Why do they call a red-haired kid a "carrot top" when the top of a carrot is green?
If you were traveling at the speed of light in your automobile and you turned on your headlights ........ would they do anything?
You and I will get along just fine. Your post is the exact type of things I ponder often. Things that seem to make no sense but are in fact real. You know...send that to myth busters or that super slow-mo tv show.
Isn't "premonition" redundant?. If you have one later, is it just a "monition"?
No, it would be Déjà Vu.
Here is what is probably happening. If the car tire is accelerating hard, the tire is most likely slipping during and/or after it has made contact with the puddle, tar, paint, road kill etc. That tire will then slip (rotate yet not travel very far along the road) to where the tire has rotated fully in a much shorter distance than the circumference of the tire. Tires slip all the time but they so gradual, you hardly notice them. Example, when you go around a turn, the inside tires travel much less than the outside tires yet travel at the same speed (on many cars). How can that inside tire spin at the same speed but travel less distance? Heck just take one fat tire on a fixed axel and bend it around a turn, the inside part of that tire is moving less than the outside part of that tire yet it is rotating at the same speed. It's slip. The wheel or the part of the wheel on the inside part of the curve is slipping much more than the outside part, however, you don't actually feel the slippage.
Well the same can occur on a straight line as well, the tire can actually slip considerably and gradually so that it will actually spin a full rotation in less than the circumference of the wheel. That would explain why this phenomenon occurs on things like puddles, tar, paint, road kill etc. things that would probably cause your tire to slip every so little as you pass over them and the traction control system and/or tires catch up. This would probably be exaggerated on the tire that is under acceleration (i.e. FWD, RWD) so then the tires would be out of sequence. Then as the sets of tires rotate out of sequence a set of close together patterns could appear. Or the wheels could be a staggered sized setup (like the NSX) and it would be a function of the stagger and distance between the wheel that would set the distance between the front and rear tire marks.
If you have the time and space, give it a shot. Put some slippery stuff on the road, and while travelling 40 mph accelerate hard over that spot. Then go back and drive over that spot at a 10 mph coast. I bet that the spot of the residual tire mark will be different between the two passes.
How is it that, the older i get, the more my hairline recedes and more hair starts growing out of my ears???
How can we have the word "nonchalant" when there is no such word as "chalant?"
