    Two-Lane Blacktop

    Im sure you guys know that the Chevy in "Two Lane Blacktop" is the exact same car that was in "American Graffiti" but with a different paintjob: http://unofficialamericangraffiti.weebly.com/the-1955-chevy.html

    Movie Thread

    I saw "Oblivion" last week (it was ok). It was $8.25 to get in, then $11.50 for a large plain popcorn and a medium soda. Thats why I quit going to the movies.

    Pray for Oklahoma. .

    Here in Dallas this is the time of year you have to keep an eye on the radar as well in the afternoon/evenings. We have been lucky so far but one day it will happen here Im sure (and maybe I should get off my duff and think about installing some sort of shelter). Prayers for those in Moore...

    Cool cop car article

    I always thought these 71-72 Furys with the 440s were pretty cool.

    Pretty cool car artwork site

    Just thought Id pass this on; Im ordering one for my Challenger and getting a custom one done up for my van too. Prices seem pretty reasonable so I imagine if somebody bites the bullet and gets him to do a Marauder then everyone else can get copies of it done in the appropriate color. His work...

    Dodge Super Bee... Not so super?

    I will just add at this point having owned both my stock 05 truck seemed quicker than my stock 04 MM (to my dismay). Im sure my Challenger isnt as quick as a new Mustang GT or even a new Camaro SS but I dont really care, its plenty quick, has a ton of room inside (like my MM) and people stare at...

    Great Lakes WWII Aircraft Carriers

    Very interesting to me since Im an old salt myself. Never heard of em and interesting to note these were sidewheelers, ancient technology really. Thanks for posting.

    These were pretty common in Mexico before crewcabs got popular in the states. I bet its a Mexican Ford.

    Fertilizer Plant Explosion Near Waco, Texas

    If people had any idea what rolls by them on a daily basis on railcars they would flip out. The explosion in West has been horrific, they still have no idea exactly how many folks were killed.

    Batman vs The Penguin (Patton Oswald)

    Good one! This one has always been my fave (after annoying commercial): http://www.ebaumsworld.com/video/watch/911308/

    Pretty damn cool Mercury Veyron!

    Makes more sense than owning the real thing to me. If you have to have one of those ugly cars, get this instead and spend the remaining $910k on muscle cars, trucks and fine Butler building to park em in.

    The Iron Lady Passes

    Met her once when I ran her security detail in Hawaii in the mid 90's; very nice, polite and was sharp as a tack. Lesson learned by Argentina; do not think the island nation of Great Britain will not come halfway round the world to whip your azz. Re Annette, she hung on a long time after her MS...

    *** Louisville Official Picture Thread***

    Great to see the pics, thanks for posting. Also nice to see Maury made the trip as well representing the Texas contingent. As a former owner I can tell you the MM owners have the best club and forum going.
