Joke webcam of a cat explains WSC delays
A link to the West brothers' webcam showing a cat at the keyboard prompted jokes about why World Sports Cars was taking so long. Douglas Ellison said the webcam had been turned off weeks earlier after complaints that it teased waiting fans, which others found a silly reason. The rest of the thread was puns and comedy references.

"Beware the leader who bangs the drums of war in order to whip the
citizenry into a patriotic fervor, for patriotism is indeed a
double-edged sword. It both emboldens the blood, just as it narrows the
mind. And when the drums of war have reached a fever pitch and the
blood boils with hate and the mind has closed, the leader will have no
need in seizing the rights of the citizenry. Rather, the citizenry,
infused with fear and blinded by patriotism, will offer up all of their
rights unto the leader and gladly so. How do I know? For this is what I
have done. And I am Caesar." -- Julius Caesar

The West Brothers are dead and the cat after many days of no food has begun
to consume the flesh of its masters.
That was the last picture before the cat pulled the USB cable out...

Several people emailed them saying that having a webcam on their progress
was unfair and was 'teasing' them.
Frankly - they're damned if they do and they're damned if they dont.
But yes - the Cat's learning photoshop

What a bunch of t*ts - I have always thought that it was a great idea to see what was happening and how they are progressing. I miss the webcam... However - very cute looking cat and a tad too-intelligent looking for my liking, it seems as though he's up to something if you ask me! ;O)

And who was FORCING them to watch it? I'm sorry, but that's a stupid reason...

Either that's one still cat, or it's not actually updating :)

And thus WSC goes the way of Trans Am Racing (which became Dukes of
Hazard).
Empire has obtained a Saturday Night Live license and are set to
release the greatest "car off a cliff" simulator the world has ever
seen ;)!

That's what I like about this place... more than a few people always get the
obscure references to decades-old comedy. :-)
