Over the past months, theThrottle and theBrigade have been growing quickly but 4 articles/day on each site is never enough for world domination. We’d like to welcome Patrick McManis to theCHIVE family (He’s the jackass dressed like a dog up there). Patty is an expert on cars and things that explode. Expect more articles and more original content on both theBrigade and theThrottle starting today. Tomorrow, the world.
Chive On,
Leo n’ John

Yah, make sure you're ready with our smart-ass comment…
Oh I was born ready…although the smell around here is a little taxing but they tell me you get used to it after a couple of weeks…

Welcome and BIG CONGO RATS!
Went to school with a Pat McManis in Oakland CA. LOVED little plastic dinosaurs? Chiver's in the making?
