I Think I Want To Marry You

Him and me have avoided watching this on the book of face for over a week or so, but finally succumbed to the tempataion and wow, it sure is cool. The back story: A guy told his girlfriend to meet at his parent's house for dinner. When she arrived she was stationed in the back of an open Honda CRV and given some headphones. He "wanted to play her a song"...

Reveille

Swinger!

Saw this early 1970's gem of a Dodge Dart Swinger on our morning walk about the neighborhood. Looks to be in extremely squeeky clean condition.

Dolphin Petting a Cat

I gotta get me one of these things....Elliott would love it!

A Roach Remembered

Carmichael Collective is an ad agency that that takes a road less traveled and looks for the most creative ways to get a message across.  In a series of art installations the perspective is shifted from a fly's death to "this fly's death".  Was it a cockroach or the Mother Theresa of cockroaches.  More images and story here.

Wonder if it would float?

Him got an email today with these photos attached and the following details:

Built on a 1986 Toyota Pickup Frame

Powered by Chrysler 318 engine

Automatic Transmission

Cedar Construction

Appears to have electric windows based on the rocker switches on the door panel.  

HMD

Go cart on Commerce

I like all things that roll and have wheels so maybe next time I could ride.  

Love at the Bank

Who sez you can't get some love at the bank?

Diving Dog Portraits

I don't know where this guy got these dogs to do this....I mean, it's not like it is bacon or anything to eat.  Seth Casteel definately has fun at work though. 

 Check out more of his work here.

On The Tracks

Beginning At The End

Vintage Old & New

Today on my morning walk we ran into a friend that showed Him a very nice 1963 Honda Dream 305 that was in very clean condition with less than 10K miles on the odometer (although the own er was not able to verify actual milage and his new 2008 Royal Enfield like the one shown below.

Before & After

This low milage recently restored Sears 1911 automobile has been owned by the same family since it was ordered from Sears but spent most of it's life in barn storage. Read the full article.

Rebuilders

This Riverside residence is a rebuild from the ground up of the home that sat on this lot but fell victim to fire about a year ago.  The attention to detail is beautiful...limestone foundation facade, brick and cedar exterior.  I wonder if the interior floor plan was altered to meet today's families needs.

This is a vintage Ural Motorcycle from the USSR.  It appears to be modeled after the BMW boxer (without some of the finer design details). I think a sidecar would be fun.

Vocabulary

Miz Gizmo!

Today Kirby (a guy that works upstairs) came into the store and brought this lovely girl in to meet us.  Gizmo is a 6 week old long hair chihuahua.  She was more interested in going over to see Him that playing with me.  I liked her anyway.
