If you're ever chased by one, just run over a pile of 8" concrete block...you'll be able to open up a big lead on him. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/lol.gif" alt="" />


Or just get in your truck and drive away. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/kewl.gif" alt="" />

The relentlessness of those things would wear any man down though given it had enough power. Eventually you would have to sleep and that thing would still be on the chase.........Then you would awaken to the sounds of the saws. ZZZZZZZzzzzzzzZZZZZZZzzzzzzZZZZzzzzz Then the rotary canon mounted atop would start blazing. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/scared.gif" alt="" />

Even more creepy is the idea of this tech shrunken down into nanorobotics.

And just like a real mule, it can't reproduce...

I like real mules mostly because they are smarter than horses. A horse will run himself to death for you. A mule will tell you to f**k off...

My grandfather used to race mules, just like the hoity toity folks raced horses. I got to be the jockey a few times before I got where I outweighed my g'father, at about age 10 (and my mother found out about it)...


Not responsible for advice not taken...
