    As a former substantial citizen myself (and, truth be told, always teetering on the brink), I'm not proud to admit this -- but, when I saw this on Flickr, I chuckled and thought to myself, "aww, wookit the fat widdle pwane!"

    It's a shame to have done that to a nice old Benz. :/

    Come to think of it, this reminds me of a cartoon I remember seeing (many) decades ago :blush: in Road & Track.
    Showed two people looking at a lovely Bugatti Royale in a museum. One says to the other:
    Imagine spoiling a lovely old car like that with those grotty modern mag wheels.

    Since not all on this forum are dedicated linguists (or cunning linguists, as the case might be) -- I should probably mention that grotty was/is the British progenitor of the Valley Gurlz' grodie (to the max).
    Not sure how it got from Old Blighty to the Valley, though. :|

    speaking of the Royale -- one of the seven Ettore made was wrecked.

    Lived in FL for 30 years.
    Loved the black grouper, red snapper and mangrove snapper. Too of the line deep fried fish.
    Only deep fried fish better than black grouper are trigger fish.
    If you can ever find them try it. They rarely made it off the boat.

    Do you ever wonder about this:


    Why is the Caspian sea called a sea and not a lake?

    9ihpelusqsxk.png

    The Caspian Sea is actually considered a huge lake by most geographers because it is totally landlocked and has no natural connection to the world's oceans. People call it a "sea" because of its massive size, salty brackish water, and the ancient oceanic crust sitting beneath its southern floor. The Black Sea also applies.

    The Black Sea is navigable to the oceans through the Bosporus so not exactly the same, but yeah, the Caspian is just a very large salty lake. One of many misnamed waterways. The Mississippi River should be called the Missouri all the way to the Gulf, but don't get me started.

    The Caspian was not always land locked. Due to continental drift or upheaval it is now landlocked.

    It has been land locked through all of human history so that knowledge was unknown until we got science.

    My '66 GTO was also black with the same white interior. Mine was a convertible with white top. I miss that car.
    It's been totally restored... and is still in town somewhere, it's on it's second owner after me. The guy that bought it from me used to take it to car shows. The old guy that has it now I don't think so. I haven't seen it in probably 20 years.
