Yep Attenborough frightened us all with the story of the Cordyceps Fungus back in Planet Earth.

Looks like the Mid Century Modern George Nelson Bubble Lamps.

Rent the movie.

The facets make it look better than the original.

That's a quip worthy of a COTD nomination!

Original is always better - and usually less expensive too.

I heard about this as a joke at some of the parties in college. apparently the cops would be looking for the admission, "I couldn't do that if I was sober."

Man I love that car!

Seeing as I only have 110 miles by 35 miles to drive before I hit water, I guess those are my limits. (Though they do have an auto-ferry that'll take me to the Dominican Rupublic) And I can take a puddle-jumper out of one of the little airports if I want to visit friends scattered around the Caribbean.

Wow, from this angle that sunroof really does look real!

When I'm president, I will pass a new law that states if you are 70 or older, you drive one of these. No exceptions!

People get so worked up over inanimate objects.

Shame to see such a beautiful car get trashed, not once, but twice in its lifetime. :(

I was prescribed Dexedrine and Adderall for 12 years for ADHD. After moving to PR and finding a new doctor to continue my meds, he worked very hard at convincing me that they were killing me and that I needed to get off of them - NOW!

Exactly... What could possibly go wrong?

My longest driven was also my first car.

No.

Here's your Alfa...

Unmolested AND a sunroof?!?
