1965 Imperial made into a truck by JOHN LLOYD, on Flickr
Speaking of bad truck ideas -- I saw my first Cybertruck in the, umm, flesh, I mean, stainless today. Bizarrely, it was driving south on NH route 120 in the decidedly downscale little city of Claremont, NH. It looked very large and very foreboding. Not unlike Claremont, actually -- other than the very large part.

Actually, I don't think that Imperial looks half bad. As for the Cybertruck, did you fire a bullet at the windows?
-
Oh man, is that gonna become a thing?
"It was an accident officer, I swear. I thought all Teslas had bulletproof glass. Plus, the guy was driving like a dink."
"Right. You're off the hook. Now beat it. I gotta degauss this thing."

LOL. I don't know how you come up with this stuff. The degauss part made me spray the cat with barolo. -
made me spray the cat with barolo
Well....I'm...just going to step away from the keyboard now.... out of respect for your many fine posts.....
I would suggest, however, that you keep the shades drawn as the neighbors probably shouldn't see that

There are, I dunno, petabytes* of information on the World Wide Web -- but I'll bet that the post quoted above marks the first time ever in the history of humankind that the sentence The degauss part made me spray the cat with barolo has ever been recorded.

Now... speaking of cats -- this just in from Morning Edition on NPR:

Now... I have to tell all y'all
... back when I was an adolescent, we had a foundling cat (more to the point, she found us) called The Bear who was distressingly intelligent. She loved to go outside -- on a leash. My father kept her collar & leash hanging on the knob of the outside basement door. She loved to go outside so much that she would (not infrequently) walk over to the door, stare at the leash and meow. If no one were around, she would pull the leash off the doorknob, drag it to the indoor basement steps, and meow.
Coupla photos of The Bear out in my parents' backyard in Brooklyn Park, MD.

Oddly enough, a cat on a leash isn't the strangest-looking thing in that photograph.

Are you drawing an analogy here? I assume so. If so, you are doing a disservice to good barolo. And my neighbors think I am mad anyway. And my "fine" posts?? I pride myself in posting drivel. -
Well walking out to get your mail at noon in your underwear isn't helping your cause at all either 😜my neighbors think I am mad anyway.

Just make sure you are alone when you laugh at your own jokes, especially if you just think them and not say them and you are surrounded by men in white jackets.mhardy6647 wrote: »There are, I dunno, petabytes* of information on the World Wide Web -- but I'll bet that the post quoted above marks the first time ever in the history of humankind that the sentence The degauss part made me spray the cat with barolo has ever been recorded.
You're right, it's usually chianti.

I, myself, call mine "Mr. Majestic"
(pretty obvious why 💪)
but "Barolo" is, I assume, an Italian nickname meaning "leans to the left" ? 🤔
In any event, as long as the cat seems to enjoy it, it's all good 👍😇
BTW Rule 34 is in effect 🤗

Underwear? -
Also, be very careful when chuckling to oneself in the presence of a very large blown up white condom.

Very impressive, but they could not get it to fly faster than a Tiger Moth.

Underwear?
Right...that is so 2023 -

That is remarkable, actually.

Actually -- upon reflection (ahem), I know what the problem was!

It's that shiny finish. They shoulda painted that sucka black. I guess the black paint shortage, so familiar to all longstanding members of this forum, had already started in Old Blighty. -

I probably would have thought the same thing but I was too distracted by that weird . . . . photoshop . . . . AI-looking . . . . thing going on there.

I took this photo last Saturday. ~1965 International Travelall. Look at all that glass. -
ah, the good ole days of no blind spots...I disabled signatures.
-
A somewhat newer Travelall (very late in the history of the real I-H) that we saw at our local ski hill last winter. Not quite as glassy, but still not bad.
This International doesn't have too much blind spot trouble...

Can't beat this.
