That's cool and all but I've always struggled with "Why?"

Passenger cars in the USSR were produced only with gasoline engines, because small diesel engines were simply not produced. A very small number of Volga cars were produced with imported diesel engines for export, and they were very scarce in Russia, because diesel fuel was very cheap, especially if you buy it from truck drivers. Few people even knew about the existence of such cars. And here is a certain person who was lucky enough to buy such a Volga somewhere in Eastern Europe, drove it to himself and stopped on the way, the fuel ran out (there were few gas stations). He stopped a passing KAMAZ and asked to buy a couple of cans of fuel. The driver says "yes, I have a diesel engine, it won't suit you" - "Nothing, come on, I know a secret way." And in front of the driver, he poured diesel into the fuel tank and then pretended that he was pissing in it. Then he got into the car, started it up and drove off, waving to the driver.

Somewhere in a European hotel, a maid is lying in bed with a guest. She says: "You Czechs are interesting people: get straight to the point. Others first tell something, they talk about something: Russians about politics, Germans about business... ". The guest:" you see, in the toilet near the reception, it is written on the wall in Czech "the red-haired maid gives immediately".

Why not? You could ask that about any hobby or interest including ours. Why go out hunting? It’s cheaper to buy food. Why travel? It is all on Internet etc.

Well, the "blue def" emission control fluid that we have here for diesels is nothing more than urea (piss). My older Ford truck diesel doesn't require it, but I wouldn't be opposed to pissing in the tank occasionally for the cause? Ha! Ha! Ha!

I snapped this photo in DFW the other day. I pointed it out to my wife and said "Toilets Concessions, I guess that's where you go to buy crap." She didn't think that was funny.

An old Soviet joke:
An early phone call:
"- Hello, Vasya? Did you try rocket fuel with us yesterday?"
"- Yes, I tried it, why?"
"- Vasya, don't go to the toilet! I'm calling you from Tokyo!"

I would rather say why not.

Isn’t each time someone pushes themselves to accomplish great feats, though they might not be of any significance to the larger fate of the world, a victory in its own respect? Why climb the Himalayas, when you could be airdropped by helicopter? Why run a marathon, you could just take the car? Why go search for the most challenging hunt, if you could just shoot the same species bred in captivity?

As president J F Kennedy said: “We do these things not because they are easy, but because they are hard”
