First remember that a penny saved is a penny earned, and that a big 2 cents doesn't get you much except the ramblings of some idiot like me.

Munchies are baby Munchkins, right?

Good on ya. My local region also improved dramatically after my repeated and lengthy complaints, and there's no way I was the only one. They're doing a pretty OK job now, much better...but UPS seems to have taken up the chimp slack.

Hand me that 3/4 inch squirrel on the bench over there.

Even though it appears to be fairly complete, it'd be a hugely expensive project for anyone, especially if they couldn't do much of the work...well...themselves. Sadly, there's just not a human available for every deserving old car. A straight resto would be tough, as a lot of trim etc. isn't readily available. BUT...it's the perfect jumping off point for something radical.

Campesi's art and designs are so cool, and it's always great to see an old model recycled into something radical. What's not to love?

Does anybody really know what time it is?

"Friend" is somebody who always needs a favor, but never reciprocates.

Rain, rain, more rain, rain after that, rain forecast next several days. I'm beginning to mildew.

"Table grade" can mean different things in different situations.

Yup. That's a very real problem, and why I stopped trying to save a couple of bucks. You may as well burn your money.

The poorly designed car that takes significant disassembly to change a cabin filter in the video is a Lincoln. The car that allows the filter to be changed in seconds is a Toyota.

Pretty cool. I've never seen that generation TVR in the flesh.

Did you see how the Toyota cabin filter is so easy to access? GOOD engineers design in serviceability. That, however, seems to be an idea that's become obsolete almost everywhere.

Follow Mr. Potato Head's lead and don't forget to wear your Depends.

Ow. Best wishes for a speedy recovery and minimal pain during rehab.

Fruit and begetables really ARE good for you, but humans need MEAT too...animal protein.

Time flies like bananas.

Pistons without full-floating pins require heat and a fixture to assemble them to connecting rods.

Eating just isn't as much fun as it used to be when I could chow down hearty and easily burn it all off instead of becoming Mr. Roly Poly.

World War 3 isn't something most humans want to see.

There are some videos available on YouTube of the remains on the bottom. Analysis of the wreckage photos and videos played a large part in determining how the failure occurred.
