    They had some of those type abominations at the Chattanooga Motorcar Festival as part of the Concours d’Lemons display. I didn’t take any pics and post them because I didn’t want to take away from the beautiful classics. But, now that we are a few posts away from those, here are a couple from last year’s event:

    The rubber chicken has now become ubiquitous, but I can't remember when they first appeared. Or why.

    Sort of like yard flamingos.
    Actually (and this is absolutely true) our erstwhile across-the-street neighbors in MA were plastic yard flamingo tycoons.
    Of course, they weren't even our most interesting neighbors. The Taylors were. B)

    So -- our boy sent me the Gremlin image below (he is fascinated by the Gremlin... and I must admit, at this late date, it'd be kind of cool to have one).

    I looked at that photo -- and I was struck by the notion that a backwards Gremlin would look an awful lot like a compact version of Musk's Tesla's Cybertruck. B):#

    I wonder what the Kelley Blue Book value is on those?
    I'm guessing they only have liability insurance...I can't imagine an insurance company offering full comprehensive coverage on such vehicles.

    I had a pet Crow that I raised from a chick to an adult. After the first year he lived outside and flew free. Jesus christ they are African Gray Parrot smart! They can understand english and names. Fred (the crows name) knew the names of my kids, understood where he was not allowed to go ( public swimming pool ). He was a great friend for a number of years. Nothing like going outside and yelling his name and woof he comes swooping in to land on your arm or shoulder. Loved to play tricks on us, and would tease and play with our dog. If I'm ever lucky enought to get another you better believe I WILL.

    That's AMAZING! I have seen several videos of things that crows can do, but nothing that cool. B)

    Did you ever see the girl that has a collection of things a wild crow has brought her?
