Sturgeon’s Law

Ninety per­cent of every­thing is crap.


Derived from a quote by sci­ence fic­tion author Theodore Stur­geon, who once said, “Sure, 90% of sci­ence fic­tion is crud. That’s because 90% of every­thing is crud.” Oddly, when Sturgeon’s Law is cited, the final word is almost invari­ably changed to ‘crap’.

My What Ugly Teeth You Have…

Mean MouthBack some­where around 2000 I added some funky “Alley Gator” plas­tic teeth to the 95 Miata. When I traded the car in in Novem­ber of 2003 I pulled the teeth out and gave them to a fel­low Miata Club­ber to use or trash as he saw fit. I also gave him the silly “Wab­bit” teeth I bought in 2002 and had on the car for all of a month or so.

A cou­ple three weeks ago some one on the Miata Forum was look­ing for a set of the rab­bit teeth and I asked John if he still had them. Sure enough, they were still tucked away in a dusty cor­ner of his garage. He gave them back to me and I mailed them off to the fel­low for just the cost of postage. I guess while he had teeth on his mind John broke down and installed the alli­ga­tor teeth on POS, his highly spe­cial­ized race car (shown above in a recent hill climb event.)

That reminds me, it is Octo­ber and Hal­loween is com­ing soon, time to put the vam­pire teeth on the Emperor.

Started down, went up, back down, still down.
