Let's Go For a Ride!
Quite a car! Note the "starter!"
It's a 1901 Ford. .
You're traveling @ 75 mph with no seat backs,
no seat belts and no brakes!
Can it get any better?

Still interested?

Meet the New World Trade Center
These amazing photos of the
1776 foot tall new trade center
have now been published, and they are exciting!
This new tower is certainly beautiful,
and will be a source of pride no doubt
to people of New York City,
who have lost so much from 12 years ago

The Dalai Lama had received
permission
from the Chinese government to restore a long unused
Buddhist temple
as a museum to extol the glories
of the People's Republic.
The Lama felt that
merely having access to the art
and architectural treasures stored therein
would help
prevent the further loss of the Tibetan traditions.
As the Lama and his crew began
clearing the temple,
they were attacked by supernatural defenders of their
faith,
the Dakinis. Dakinis or "skywalkers,"
as they were commonly
known, were ghostly women,
of all sizes and skin colors, some with animal
heads,
each armed with a mystical weapon that could inflict
severe physical
damage on the living.
The crew refused to work,
and the
Lama called on Friar Harold Hillary,
a famed exorcist, to help cleanse the
abandoned temple
of these unwanted spirits.
Friar Harold rushed to the temple,
armed with holy water
and a nasty three-sided dagger called a "purba"
that can pierce ghostly flesh.
As the exorcist and the Lama entered
the temple,
a huge, lion-headed, dark green Dakini
with a head-chopping sword
gave an ear-shattering shriek.
The exorcist splashed holy water on her,
and she
vanished.
Then a giantess, at least twelve
feet tall,
a red-skinned Dakini,
hurled an arm-binding noose over them,
but the
Friar stabbed her with the "purba,"
and she vanished.
Next, a hugely obese Dakini,
blue-black with flames shooting out of every pore,
hurled a shoulder-piercing
trident at the Lama,
but he ducked and countered by chanting
the weapon's
mantra, "Phat!"
and the monster vanished.
There were dozens of monsters,
but
the two vanquished every one.
But one creature, of saffron hue and diminutive
size,
no bigger than a human thumb,
managed to wound the exorcist in an
embarrassing part
of his anatomy.
In his memoirs Fr. Harold described this
skywalker:
"She was an itsy-bitsy, teeny-weeny,
yellow poke-a-butt Dakini."
A bird breeder, who dealt with only
species
that are normally wild,
not parrots, canaries, or parakeets, had a
difficult life,
getting up early to feed all his charges,
never taking a
vacation, working hard,
and yet he enjoyed his life.
When the local newspaper
interviewed him
for a feature story,
they asked him if he was sorry about the
life
he'd chosen for himself.
His reply?
"I have no egrets."

Heavy snow had buried a woman's van in their driveway.
Her husband
dug around the wheels,
rocked the van back and forth
and finally pushed her
free.
A short while later, while on the road,
she heard an odd noise coming from
under the van.
Concerned, she got on her cell phone
and called home.
"Thank God you answered," she said
when her husband picked up.
"There's this alarming sound coming under the van.
For a minute I thought
I was dragging you down the highway."
In a shocked voice, her husband replied,
"And you didn't
stop?!"
