    Thanks to Murilee, I now know what "hagiography" is. Who says you can't learn anything on the Internet? #paulnewman

    He was a living legend, and I had the pleasure of meeting him once, very briefly, at his Connecticut based Volvo dealer. Congenial, charismatic, a true gentleman.

    I'm afraid we shall never see another man of this caliber again, at least in my lifetime.

    My goodness, anyone that has spent that much time behind the wheel of race Datsuns is a legend in my book.

    I once heard about him GT racing a few years before he died on a supremely outdated Corvette and snagging a win. The car was numbered something in the seventies, 78 I believe. That was his age at the time. #paulnewman

    Fucking brilliant. I love it.

    I got my niece a "Where's Osama" book for Christmas once.
    In Australia, 'Where's Waldo' books are called Where's Wally'. Go figure.

    I expect this to be under the tree. My wife already bought me a 'I am the Stigs fat cousin" T-shirt. (I'm not fat, I'm big boned)

    I need to get this. And I suppose I'll get a separate one for my son.

    Ok, this might be the greatest thing in coffee table literature. At least until they release the "Wert's Camaro love: The Complete Collection," a fitting addition to any sophisticate's coffee table.

    I want to be the Stig for Halloween, but my budget only allows me to be Clarkson (pillow in shirt, prepared list of hyperbolic statementss, tribble-like wig).

    @eggwich del fiero: Good luck on making the best Clarkson costume...IN THE WHUURRLD.

    Also, I have a plain black helmet, and may just be a tinted face shield and Goodwill run away from my Halloween costume.

    Some say that this book's droppings has been found as far north as Seattle....

    and that the book will dragon every single other book on your coffee table.

    All we know is, is that this is isn't the Stig, but it's his official book!
