    Happy Thanksgiving, and things to remember.

    I want to wish everyone a happy Thanksgiving, and to ask that you remember and say a prayer for the members of our military and their families who are spending this holiday away from each other. I would also ask that you take some time to remember the true meaning of this day. Give thanks to God...

    Weird anomalies

    Guys, check out these weird things on Antarctica that are countless miles from anywhere. The first is a giant hole into the earth, about 245 feet wide by 105 feet high. Here it is in 3D showing that it is an opening into something, but what? And if you think that is weird, check this out...

    Starting Gracie Ju-Jitsu with my daughter tomorrow..

    I have always hoped to introduce my daughters to the martial arts whenever they became interested in it. Not just so they can defend themselves in an increasingly dangerous world, but also for the confidence and character it builds. I found an awesome course developed specifically for children...

    Martial arts??

    I wanted to see how many people we have here who are training in the martial arts. I trained years ago but stopped because I was an active musician and could not afford the damage I occasionally did to my hands but I am going to start training again. Not only because of the deterioration of...

    German engineering

    As many of you know, I picked up (stole for $500) a 1990 BMW 735i at the end of last year to be my new daily driver and was stunned that even with over 190,000 miles on it it was still as good as it was when it was new other than some peeling clear coat. Well, I can now say I know why BMWs cost...

    The Ax Has Fallen...

    We are losing 17 dealerships in Maryland. The dealership I used to work for and all of the ones I have friends at are safe. I talked to the owner of the one I worked for and he said that while pretty much everything is up in the air, no one expects there to be any cuts in the Challenger line and...

    My first non-Mopar

    Well, here I am a few years shy of 50 and I finally bought my first non-Mopar and it is the best $500 I ever spent. Not only is it my first non-Mopar but it is my first car with power windows/locks etc. A friend at work was moving back home (to the Czech republic) on short notice so he sold me...

    New Rush Live DVD.

    All I can say is AMAZING. Rush's new live DVD "Snakes and Arrows Live" again sets the bar far too high for all but a precious few bands. They always have been one of the best, if not THE best live performance band in the business but this new DVD is just incredible. It was filmed in HD with 21...

    Score!!!!!! - first pictures

    The original owner E-Mailed me a few of the pictures he is sending me. One was taken in 1969 right after he bought the car and the other 3 are from 1970 after he completed the mods to "make it the fastest car in Baltimore". I still can't believe I finally found him and that he has all this great...

    Score!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    After searching for the entire 26½ years that I have owned my car I FINALLY tracked down the original owner. I had already talked to every owner but him. I found out his parents still lived around here, got in touch with them, and they had him call me. Man did I find out a lot including further...

    Someone sent this to my mother-in-law. It read: "There I was sitting and watching TV when I heard the kids yell "Dad, come look at the kittys"...". And while I am uploading pics from my animal folder, check out this one that was shot from a Police helicopter in Florida: That...

    The weirdest thing...

    The weirdest thing happened tonight. At about 9:30 my wife and I heard a noise that sounded like maybe someone had smashed one of your big pumpkins on the sidewalk so of course I flew right out there and.....nothing. We stood there for a few seconds and heard what sounded like running water so I...

    Mini MOPAR monsters

    I posted these videos in another thread but I think they are worthy of their own. The first is of a friend's Reliant K car vs. a twin turbo Supra. You will not believe this car. The second is an Omni GLH vs. a Z06 Corvette. The third is of a minivan (yes, you read correctly) against a Firebird...

    Awesome video...

    As a compliment to my other warbird thread, here is just about the best and most hilarious warbird video I have ever seen, featuring a Spitfire. Crank up the sound, it is pretty low in the video. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rogfQpuyyDg

    Awesome sounding vintage machine

    I am into vintage planes as well as cars. Everybody always talks about how awesome P-51s sound and they are right, but listen to this BF109G. It has it's original supercharged Daimler-Benz DB605 engine. It has a nice choppy idle and just listen to that supercharger on the medium speed passes...

    OMG, the secret is out!

    Chrysler, LLC just announced that they have three electric vehicles hitting the market starting in the 2010 model year, which means 2009. This was a shock to the industry since they really kept a lid on it. The vehicles are the Chrysler Town and Country, the Jeep Wrangler, and a new Dodge sports...

    Dodge Cuda???

    I was just watching "Muscle Car" on Speedvision. They have had some good stuff on there but they just made an inexcusable stupid error. As they were cutting to a commercial they showed a green '70 Cuda and at the bottom of the screen it said "Next: 1970 Dodge 426 Hemi Cuda". Are you f***ing...

    Scary stuff...

    This is a link to a movie by Aaron Russo, who directed "Trading Places" and "The Rose" as well as a few other major hollywood features. I already knew much of what is in there but not all of it and most people know none of it. It is scary stuff that will piss you off big time...
