Who knows? Behind this German auto burqua could be a real beauty.

Maybe I’m missing something, but I don’t see much evidence of scooters taking off in the states. Certainly not here in Los Angeles where one would think the weather, lack of parking, legendary traffic and look-at-me culture would result in hordes of scootered Angelinos happily buzzing all over the city as if it were

Now I’m looking’ for a retired cop car! “No, no, no...! Leave all that stuff on her. I’ll take it off when I get it home...”

The cuter the animal the better.

Score one for the good guys in getting something past the Nanny State.

The other goal keeper runs like he’s carrying a five gallon bucket of paint in his shorts.

Yes. It’s a minute slow every 30 seconds. And only the passenger can read it.

I’m his great grand son.

The BMW Z8 innards are ok if you don’t have my ‘69 Mustang GT deluxe interior....

A word not used since the ‘80’s. So I looked it up.
