Tim BayerBRIGHTON New York—(Weekly Hubris)—3/18/2013—Last week in this space, the video I presented came to you via a column titled “Walk On The Wild Side While Talking.” This Monday, I’m feeding my (and perhaps your) inner car geek, as we take a drive on the wild side with Ken Block.

I’ve been a licensed driver for over 30 years. I thought I was a great driver, too, but I was dead wrong: Ken Block is a great driver. The things Ken can make a car do are impossible to describe, so I won’t even attempt it. Click on the video below to watch, for yourself, “Ken at work behind the wheel.”

(If you, yourselves, come across an entertaining link or video, I’d be interested in seeing it, and sharing it with my readers at Weekly Hubris. Please contact me at: Email: [email protected].)

Tim Bayer, Webmaster, and Assistant Editor of Weekly Hubris, was born and brought up in Webster, New York. He attended St. Bonaventure University, earning a BS in Computer Science, and then worked in the hi-tech world. In 2002 he turned his creative energies to product development and video production with the release of his first independently produced products. When the demand for web site design and freelance writing increased, he once again switched skill sets . . . to writing and web work. An avid or, to be more accurate, rabid, disc golfer, he may often be found chasing plastic while in pursuit of the perfect round on a disc golf course, or designing and developing disc golf products for Demogrid.com. He says he tries to find the humor hidden in everyday experiences, because, “life is too important to be taken seriously.” (Author photo by Tim Bayer. Author Head Shot Augment: René Laanen.)
