Assuming that the girl in the sunroof is 5′-4″ tall, it appears that the actual car width is close to 14 feet wide. Awesome.

Cajun Dragster
Looks like a 1987 Toyota Celica 2005 Honda Accord [?] retrofit courtesy of Honda. If he did it right, it’ll run forever, but it needs a plywood spoiler. And, nope, the double yellow doesn’t mean a damn thing.

Hybrid Airships
Yep. The past is also the future.
“Hybrid airships are not the blimps of years ago. They have the potential to transform military logistics, command and control, and surveillance and reconnaissance.”

Camógaíocht is only played by women and is almost identical to Iománaíocht which is only played by men.
Georgetown University students opine on the President’s immigration policy.
Members of Congress attempted to deport a naturalized U.S. Citizen over false allegations.
Aynaz Anni Cyrus grew up in post-revolution Iran, where if a 9-year old is raped, she has committed adultery by default, and may be tortured and/or sentenced to death. LISTEN TO HER STORY.
On 16 July 1969, Buzz Aldrin, Neil Armstrong, Michael Collins and the team of Apollo 11 captivated the entire world by sending men to the moon and returning them safely to Earth in just 8 days.
When they were preparing for the moon shot, THIS was No.1 on the Billboard Charts. THIS was No.1 when they left. A month after the astronauts returned, the top hit was THIS.
Three years later, the crew of Apollo 15 placed the only art installation on the lunar surface, a memorial to those astronauts who lost their lives .
A Humble Request. Thanks to all contributors and those of you who continue to donate. The Goal wasn’t set arbitrarily, and we’ve still got a ways to go.

Saturday Matinee – Tony Joe White, Jane Rose, Rev. Peyton’s Big Damn Band & RelaxTrio
BTW, that’s “poke sallet” for you city slickers. Poke is poisonous, and I remember it being called “hillbilly acid.” Young pokeweed is edible when cooked, but no U.S. food organization endorses the consumption of pokeweed regardless of how it is prepared, and the berries can kill you. It’s a lanky odd-looking weed with purple stems, grows to +6 feet.
“Sallet” is of French origin and refers to a mess of greens (including spinach, mustard greens, etc.) cooked until tender.
Jane Rose is nasty. I love it.
Reverend Peyton’s Big Damn Band is worth a listen. Country gospel rock is always good for the soul.
Finnish band RelaxTrio kicks psycho billy to a new level of psycho billy, whatever that means, but that girl pounds bass.
Linda Teränen (Vocals & double bass)
Oskari Nieminen (Vocals & guitar)
Vilho Voutilainen (Drums & backing vocals)
Have a great weekend, folks. Be back here tomorrow for more whatever.
