I never liked this model, but I do admire survivor cars.

For not many tallies, kids could go fast 60 years ago in pre-war Henry steel. Of course, A-bones are still out there, but you'd best have a heap o' nanas.


I remember a junkyard when I was maybe 11 where I saw a pile of model A differentials. I heard they all got scrapped a few years later.

This is why 3D printing is going to be huge...




... and we're worried about FACTORY jobs?

One of my black belts was an artist who specialized in cars and one of his clients had a classic car that he had a bit of bird crap painted on just for "shits" and giggles...



The dude (artist) was so OCD that he spent weeks taking pictures of bird crap just to get it right.

I am mentoring a guy who is majoring in mechanical engineering with the emphasis on new 3D technology. It's fun to discuss the possibilities. His head works like mine.


I love shit like this:

I feel sorry for people like that. Their fear of failure is or can be paralyzing. They tend to obsess on what they consider to be perfection. Poor bastards.

I never thought of it like that.


I wonder if that is a prime component of what we call talent...

I want to ride like Bogart

Well I was movin' down the road in my V-8 Ford,
I had a shine on my boots, I had my sideburns lowered.
With my New York brim and my gold tooth displayed,
Nobody gon' fuck wit' me cause they know I got it made.
I'm bad, I'm nationwide.
Well I'm bad, bad, bad, bad, bad, I'm nationwide.

I remember going out and getting drunk as shit in one of those one night.


I may have acted inappropriately.


That may have tainted my vision, but that would be shallow of me, wouldn't it?

[4est_4est_Gump]

That's just mean.

 

[Wat_Tyler]

May I then extrapolate that, in so posting that, that I am "just mean"???


I seem to be good at it.


Since we're on an F-word topic:
