What do you do with OLD Bumper Cars?

WHO KNEW?
 

  
  

   

  

  

  

  
  


Yes,  you read that right; these little beasties are street legal. They run on  either   Kawasaki or Honda motorcycle engines and co-opt vintage  bumper car bodies into the most awesome form of mini-car we've seen in too  long.
 
 
There are seven of these little  monsters floating around California , and they're all the creation of one  man,Tom Wright, a builder in the outskirts of San Diego who figured the  leftovers of the Long Beach Pike amusement park needed a more dignified end than the trash heap.  They were originally powered by two cylinder Harley  Davidson Motorcycle engines but they rattled like heck because of the two  cylinder vibration and Tom replaces them with four cylinder Honda or   Kawasaki 750's and a couple have been measured as capable of 160 MPH,  which is terrifyingly fast in machines with such a short wheelbase.   

By the way, they are almost  indestructible in accidents

Kill ONLY when you are hungry: Some Extraordinary Pics of Animals who don't really play together


Kill ONLY when you are hungry

 

 

 

      
Photographer  Michel Denis-Huot, who captured these amazing  pictures on safari in Kenya's Masai Mara  in October last year, 
said he was astounded by what  he saw:

"These three brothers (cheetahs) have  been living together since they left their mother at  about 18 months old,' he said. 
'On the morning we  saw them, they seemed not to be hungry, walking  quickly but stopping sometimes to play  together. 
'At one point, they met a group of impala  who ran away. But one youngster was not quick  enough and the brothers caught it  easily'."

These  extraordinary scenes followed.


See... We CAN all get along!!!

and  then they just walked away without hurting  him..

Life is  short... forgive quickly,  love truly, laugh uncontrollably...and  never regret anything that made you  smile

 

 

STREET GANGS IN CALGARY , ALBERTA

It's gangs like these that the people of Calgary have to put up with..

A bit different from the problems in other cities...

It proves that every City has their own "unique" gang problems. They
Roam the streets and yards night and day.

They hang out in even the best neighborhoods!

..and you CANNOT (legally) stop them.


Those are some lawn ornaments!!!


AREN'T THEY MAGNIFICENT !!!!???




 
 
 


 


"Did  you lose a cat?"
This is probably the  most amazing picture of  2012!!!

You'll love this! A Stormy Tale of Lust

You’ve probably seen this but

 

 

THE STORM

They were together in the House.

Att000761

Just the two of them.

It was a cold, dark, stormy night. The storm had come quickly


and each time the thunder boomed he watched her jump.

She looked across the room and admired his strong appearance...and

wished that he would take her in his arms, comfort her and protect her

from the storm.

Suddenly, with a pop, the power went out..... She screamed...

He raced to the sofa where she was cowering.

He didn't hesitate to pull her into his arms.

He knew this was a forbidden union and

expected her to pull back.


He was surprised when she didn't resist but instead clung to him.

The storm raged on...

They knew it was wrong...

Their families would never understand... So consumed were

they in their FEAR that they heard no opening

of doors...just the faint click of a camera.....



Att000792

Have you smiled today?


YES, YOU'VE BEEN HAD........

NOW GET SOMEONE ELSE

Closing my eyes, just don't look down. Amazing Glass Mountain Path

To anyone contemplateing a trip overseas please take note that my visa is no longer
valid , therefore I'll  be unable to go with you to ENJOY this great siteseeing trip until
further notice due to a Headache .  Have a good trip and enjoy. 



I HOPE THE CHINESE DIDN'T TAKE ANY SHORT CUTS IN BUILDING THIS!!

(YOU WOULD HAVE TO ASK YOURSELF THAT QUESTION, AYE?)

Untitled112
closing my eyes! lol                  

China's newest tourist attraction... a glass-bottomed walkway around the cliff....
Brave tourists looking to test their nerves have flocked to China to walk across a dazzling glass bridge suspended from the cliff.
The oriental Skywalk is situated 4,700 ft above sea level on the side of the Tianmen Mountain in Zhangjiajie , China .
In order to keep the glass path clean, tourists are asked to put on shoe covers before passing.

Dazzling: A glass path suspended on a cliff face has been built on the side of the Tianmen Mountain in China

Untitled59
Don't look down: A brave tourist walks along the glass path that was built of the side of a cliff 4,700 ft above sea level on Tianmen Mountain in Zhangjiajie , China
The 200 ft long bridge joins the west cliff at the Yunmeng Fairy Summit, the summit of Tianmen Mountain and Zhang Jiajie.
The pathway, built earlier in the summer echoes the glass-bottomed walkway at the Grand Canyon in the U.S.
The 70 ft bridge is 4,000 ft above the natural wonder and allows tourists to look through 2.5 in of crystal-clear glass to the Canyon floor below.
The Tianmen mountain, literally translated as Heavenly Gate Mountain is so called because of a huge natural cave that occurs halfway up to the summit.

Stunning: The skywalk offers breathtaking views across the Hunan Province for those brave enough to attempt to cross the bridge
Situated in the Hunan Province, Its highest peak is around 5,000 ft above sea level and it is home to a wealth of rare species of plants
A four-mile-long cable car was constructed in the park, which is said to be the longest of the same type in the world.
The futuristic glass walkway is a marked upgrade from another sky high mountain walkway located in the same province.





Not so high spec: Workers built a 3 ft-wide plank road on the side of Shifou Mountain , in Hunan Province , China earlier this year.
The Shifou Mountain located 82 miles away in Hunan Province offers sightseers a 3ft-wide road made of wooden planks thousands of feet high.
When finished the 'road' - which is the width of a dinner table - will stretch for 1.8 miles making it China 's longest sightseeing path.

When you drink vodka over ice, it can give you kidney failure.
When you drink rum over ice, it can give you liver failure.
When you drink whiskey over ice, it can give you heart problems.
When you drink gin over ice, it can give you brain problems.
Apparently, ice is really bad for you.
Warn all your friends.

How the world works lately...

!

How the world works lately...

Att000011


If a man cuts his finger off while
Slicing salami at work,

He blames the restaurant.

If you smoke three packs a day
For 40 years and die of lung cancer,

Your family blames the
Tobacco company.

If your neighbor crashes
Into a tree while driving home drunk,
He blames the bartender.

If your grandchildren are

Att000022

Brats without manners,
You blame television.

If your friend is shot by a
Deranged madman,
You blame the gun manufacturer..

And if a crazed person breaks

Into the cockpit and
Tries to kill the pilot at 35,000 feet,
And the passengers
Kill him instead,
The mother of the crazed deceased
Blames the airline.

I must have lived too long to
Understand the world
As it is anymore.

So, if I die while my OLD WRINKLED ASS

Is parked in front of this computer,
I want all of you to

Blame Bill Gates .

Att000033

Have a nice day!
