I pulled the oil pan to find out why I lose oil pressure in corners (pretty
easy corners, actually) and this seems pretty apparent:

It looks like Every.  Single.  Oil. Seal. decayed and dropped into the oil
pan to periodically gum up the works.  It's lucky a piece didn't jam up my
oil pump completely.  That also explains my rapid oil consumption, though I
never noticed a lot of smoke... I must have been going too fast ;)

Here's a gratuitous pic of my friend trying to kiss me.  I don't understand
the attraction much.  http://www.flickr.com/photos/47702694@N00/1316959772
