    HAHAHAHAHAHAHA

    A comedy club at 101 Main Street in Burlington? I know exactly where that is. I have never been to the comedy club, but I saw Al Stewart in that building in September, 1986. B)

    No way! :o I can easily predict the outcome of this test ride.

    I want to live for however long I still have left. No need to rush things, you know. ;)

    ^^^ late 1940s Consolidated Vultee (Convair) air-car : ) From the ever-enjoyable archives of the San Diego Air & Space Museum @ Flikr. If you like (vintage) aerospace stuff, you might want to "follow" them. :) About 88 'in process' images of this... umm... vehicle were posted today @ Flikr.

    This looks like a great opportunity for a lesson in torque - force, distance, and all that. Or, in real world terms, "Kevin, come quick, the painters are working unsupervised again!"

    Could be training for doing external repairs on the ISS. Probably a pretty good, cheap model.
    NASA would do it, and the facility would cost 700 million dollars. Those guys rented a scissor-jack, and a gym's pool for a day. B)

    I can almost smell those classic sunbaked interior and dampness scents. Maybe a little of the green tree air freshener…

    Last year, Tuomas Katainen blew up his modified 2013 Tesla Model S and recorded the explosive event in a now-viral YouTube video..........after he was told it would cost him around $22,000 to replace the battery.

    Earlier this year, parents spent $11,000 on a used 2014 Ford Focus Electric car for their daughter. It needed a battery, which cost $14,000 and there were none available.

    So yeah, high price but believable. Part number search shows discontinued part, but some say that battery was only 9K in forums. The 9K price could have been a refurbed battery. EDIT: Est could be faked too.
