Nope.

They are business partnerships, just like the NHRA and NASCAR.

Oh and Martjin, you're a nutjob:


"I swim naked whenever possible, especially in the
sea. It feels better."

"I'm a patriotic American, a patriotic Norwegian, and a patriotic
Australian, which means I have to work a lot harder at being patriotic
than most of you, I should think.  Not that this would mean anything to
any of you right whinge toadies."

"First Aerospace Control Squadron, Cheyenne Mountain, Colorado Springs,
Colorado.

I had two jobs. Both involved computer programming."

"The DIA will track you down anywhere in the world and snuff you
if they think you are a national security risk."

"I said I served in uniform during the
Vietnam war.  It was my good fortune not to get sent to Vietnam.'

"Sometimes there are other things that change your feel. I, for one, 
feel like I float better when I'm shaved, though there's certainly no 
expectation of doing so."

"...I'm a 56 year old male.  I'm an over-the-hill, two-shower-a-day man,
and I think George Bush is an idiot.  I usually shave. I haven't been in
a committed relationship since 1987.  I look like a 56 year old guy in
speedos."

"I stopped using shaving cream when I figured it didn't serve any
useful function. It also defeated the purpose of the mirror, and so I
didn't need the mirror either."
