comments

comments
Here’s an ad from Craigslist. See if you can guess what it’s for. Can’t quite get it? No, it’s not someone looking for a cure for his ADD, and it’s not a selection from his thesis on War and Peace. Maybe he’s selling stolen vowels from Wheel of Fortune?

Thanks to Josh for pointing out this EXCELLENT 1978 Lincoln Continental. Apparently it is the Cartier Design series edition which is probably the real inspiration behind the Cartier American Tank line of watches… A daily-driver with under 100K miles on a 460 4bbl engine?

The Ohio Supreme Court has knocked down a last ditch effort by Chillicothe (named after the goat-killing demon of Northern Mexico) mayor Joseph Sulzer to block residents from voting on the removal of revenue-generating speed cameras- his signature legacy achievement.
