The Airborne Laser program can be tracked back to the Reagan years, and after billions in development dollars were…
awesome. Good for them.
Mathematically speaking it must be a Citron coloured Citroën = Citroën^2 if you will!
Hi
Matt,
Your photos are fascinating. With each component, I am left to wonder the source. You wouldn’t think, in 1911, there would not have been a great network of auto component suppliers, but yet we see supplier parts like Bosch switches. Yes, I know Fiat had been in business for 11 years at that point, but still the…
Considering Obama made bringing Alpha Romeo’s product line to the US a requirement for him signing off on the Chrysler deal, it is guaranteed.
As an Army guy, I have no idea about how much responsibility a captain has when navigating his ship in harbor with tugs alongside. If the tugs shoved the ship into the memorial and the captain was only along for the ride, is he responsible? How much control does the captain have when being maneuvered by tugs? Is…

On another, unrelated note, I ran across a very weird International Harvester graveyard hiding in plain sight in my hometown. It’s got a whole bunch of everything, from Mk 1 Scouts to…
Im sure Tarvish has a post on how he bought a fixer upper helicopter and fixed it for $75.
Not good for direct hits! Only nicks!
Note that the Gamma Goat is actually a 4-wheeled vehicle with a 2-wheel trailer...that is in fact 6-wheel drive and amphibious. The trailer allows for big-time articulation between the front and rear sections, and I don’t think they come apart so calling it a trailer is a bit of a stretch. But if blown off, the front…
It’s amazing to thing how close we were to having drones way back then...
It’s really a shame that drinking and driving is so politically incorrect at the moment.
I just lost it laughing at that line. Fucking luftballones.
This I like. I would consider it if it looked like this.
