Here's two oddball choices.
First is the Chevette that GM stuffed with a 60-degree V6 back in 1982 as a proof of concept. I remember reading about it in the car mags back in the day - not altogether horrid reviews.
The other one was a gen-1 CRX that Car and Driver outfitted with a second engine/transaxle powering the…

Everyone knows Salvage-1 was the first private spacecraft, when Andy Griffith welded it up from an old cement mixer and assorted other junk...

I was thinking, "nice pic," and then I clicked it. I said "holy crap!" out loud, prompting my cubicle neighbor to ask what's up. Leave me alone, that's what's up.

Because his skin is the wrong color for that particular establishment.

To those of you that have not yet clicked the image to see it full-size:

Any golf course except Augusta National, that is...

They have drunk nuns where you live, I guess...

Would be much more awesome if he did it in a sumo suit.

The terrorists will come with sharks. If they come with laser sharks, we're all doomed.

Go, Hotdog, go!

You lost me at Renault. CP

Where do you think researchers get their money? Either government grants, or industry grants. I'm not saying these particular researchers would sweep untoward findings under the rug, but I know from personal experience that "non-supportive" findings often never see the light of day.

The food industry probably thought BPA was "food safe" a few decades ago, too...

I like the size of my iPhone - I don't want a giant phone.

Use the extra on the top and bottom (left and right in…

Only if I could come up with a suitable pseudonym. "Noxema Johnson" is hard to top...

Well, if it was a road trip with Wesley Snipes and Patrick Swayze, I'd have to pick a late 60's Caddy convertible...

Sure, they had their delays, but I have to believe that inspires confidence in those who might be riding on the damn thing in the near future. It looks like SpaceX is more concerned that their rocket doesn't blow up, than it is with getting it off the pad by a deadline.

Spacex.com has carried webcasts of their previous launches.

Relatively tame compared to some of these but we had an old biddy (and old maid) teacher at my high school whose vanity plate read MWS. Her initials, right? Well, sort of. "WS" were her initials. The "M" stood for Miss, which she insisted she be called - Miss Smith. Not Miz, not Mrs. - she made sure you pronounced…

Before you signed the contract, did you read the part that says Verizon and its affiliates reserve the right to change this contract at any time?
