I always thought it was important to look your best when attempting to rule the world.

...with camo paint!

I can see our guys sighting through binoculars saying "hey - what are those four white circles rolling by themselves off in the distance?"

I saw a guy at work the other day with a camouflage jacket on and a conspicuity (bright yellow) vest over the top.

I was like "...exactly what look are you going for here? Am I supposed to see you, or not see you?"

Moonbow
Also known as lunar rainbow, this phenomenon is caused by moonlight rather than sunlight.

Fogbow
Often called cloudbows, white rainbows or ghost rainbows, fogbows are formed when the sun is at a low angle and the light hits moisture in the fog.

Fire rainbow
These are usually spotted near thin clouds, called cirrus, during summer and spring in mid-latitude regions.

Japan’s landscape is dominated by mountains; they cover 75-80 percent of the country.

The number four is believed to be unlucky in Japan because the word for four is “shi,” which closely resembles the word for death. Hotels and hospitals don’t have a fourth floor.

In Mexico, in 1984, and only 1984, you could have purchased an SS with an LM1 350 V8 and a 4 barrel Rochester Quadrajet hooked up to a 4 speed manual gearbox. Not only that, but the Saginaw transmission also came equipped with a Hurst shifter. Other variations from the American version included the elimination of the SS rear spoiler, different side graphics, checkerboard style wheels, different mirrors, special steering wheel, no center console, only power locks, only manual windows, and the interior was styled using Pontiac Grand Prix parts rebranded with the SS logo.

I can't help but think what a great all-terrain camper conversion this platform would make once they get rid of the missile thingy and all the associated parts. ;)

I wonder how many of those were built?

From what I can ascertain . . . 200 and were originally used by Chevrolet to qualify their new Monte Carlo for NASCAR.

New cars depreciate in value by about 11% the minute you drive them off the lot.

New Orleans is one of the few places in America where it is totally legal to openly drink alcohol on the street.
