Absolutely the coolest thing you will see this year. Note the "Don't Panic" panel in the car as well

I saw the movie Heavy Metal long ago but did not make the connection until it was pointed out. It seemed familiar somehow but ....


I had to google '"don't panic." It was on the cover of Hitchikers Guide to the Galaxy. I did not know that.

Speaking of Heavy Metal (in general). I own a few Rammstein CDs, ripped to my computer etc.
Now I have Sabaton. I like them.

All I have to say is...that sucker better not knock into an asteroid that causes some pinball action to send an asteroid our way...otherwise there may be cause to panic...

Right now I am not worried about it...and am typically ambivalent about it should it occur anyway, so...
