Pistons and Punches

Well everybody, here's a couple great things you need to read.

First is a quick history of boxing from the Art of Manliness.

Second is an essay on the tragic downfall of the automobile, by PJ O'Rourke.

If all this has you hankerin' for past boxing glory, I would recommend this.
