Speaking of ruining cars, I thought of Ken when I saw a story in The Week magazine about the world's most expensive car crash. Here's a link, with video, about the crash in Japan involving 8 Ferraris.

The sad part is there's someone out there with more money than brains who'll buy it. And the "models" only make it look worse.

...the "models" only make it look worse. Obviously, they all have serious hip problems, the guy included, and are incapable of standing normally.

I dunno.....kind of has a retro look about it, you know, like the old steam train engines with the grill on front to clear the cattle or buffalo off the track....Woooh-Woooh!

Screw you all! I DO want it! Except I want it navy blue, or that T-bird coral color that Halle Berry drove in James Bond.
And why don't all the new J-Lo commercials for the Fiat 500 show her driving THAT one with the real gold and diamonds for $675,000? At least the MB is a real car under all that schmaltz!
In the early 70's, the CEO of Ford drove a custom Pinto with a 5-speed, V-8, leather, sunroof, power-everything, etc.
Do you know how many Mercedes that awful live in Dubai?

On third look, I beleieve we are all wrong. Those photos weren't taken to feature the cars!
The cars are merely "sexy" backdrops for the women. It's a Southeast Asian Mail-Order-Bride catalog!

Look, I'm cool with alternate lifestyles but last night I had a nightmare that some guy in red shoes was chasing me because I threw up on his car.
True story!

What kind of car was it? A Mercedes/McLaren? What had you been eating?
He wasn't chasing you for THAT, anyway. He was chasing you to collect on that $947.00 you still owe for all those "unexpecteds."
