Don’t blame me, I voted for Conor Lamb.

Jody Scheckter seems to be liquidating his collection. Among the other cars up for auction are his 1979 F1 World Drivers Championship-winning Ferrari 312T4. The full auction catalog is here:

That Thunderbirds Tracy Island toy looks clever, but it seems to have been produced when I was an adult. Here’s a YouTube unboxing video (with Dutch language commentary):

I’d give this 1000 stars if I could.

Jim Glickenhaus has a wife whose maiden name was Cameron, I think. He seems to have his family and kids in mind regarding a lot of his ventures, he had both his son and his daughter star in some of his self-produced movies in the 1980's-1990's - His son’s IMDB entry is below.

Don’t forget Scuderia Serenissima Republica di Venezia, or “Scuderia Serenissima” for short.

Chaparral 2K

Lamborghini Miura

Where’s the 1/9th scale “sugar tits”???

Damn! In quantum mechanics class, I can remember reading about the B0rn-Oppenheimer approximation for calculating energy levels in multi-electron atoms.     Combined with the big BANG at Trinity test site in 1945, I figured this guy would feature in a really hot sex scene!

I would give this 1000 stars if I could!  I remember seeing this commercial when it ran and thought it was really inspired and hilarious.

Yeah, I have a hard time believing this list too. To cite just one example, I’ve read postings on message boards talking about waits of 6 months or more for some configurations of the 11th gen Honda Civic. All cars arriving at dealers seem to be reserved or pre-sold, they can’t have many days of inventory on hand, yet

I’m reminded of that Don Rickles line: “To know him is to vomit!”

Supposedly somebody once asked J.P. Morgan “How much does it cost to own a yacht?”

The life of everyone on board depends upon just one thing: finding someone back there who can not only fly this plane, but who didn’t have fish for dinner.

The hardest thing about landing a plane is the ground!

Not just Toyota, Honda (and some other Japanese brands) have an allocation system that is similar.

CORRECTION: It was during a trip to Europe in when JF was 16, not in California.

I recall seeing her tell the Garbo story on some other talk show (Letterman? Leno?) years ago. It was in the late 50's or early 60's and Garbo visited the (Henry) Fonda family at their beach house in California.

Helen was always supportive of Jackie’s racing career. They were (and are) quite devoted to their marriage from the start, and were quite a glamorous young couple in F1 in their day. Hearing of her mental decline was quite a shock.
