A bit of this and that for a moment
1925 Monotrace found on http://flickriver.com/photos/jk1971/tags/monotrace
Racing legends Donnie Allison, Sid Collins, Roger McCluskey, Ed McCulloch, Augie Pabst, Bruce Penhall and Ed Winfield will be enshrined into the Motorsports Hall of Fame of America when the organization stages its annual induction celebration on August 23 and 24, 2011 in Detroit.
Ed Winfield was regarded as one of the all-time great mechanical minds motorsports has ever known. He was an expert in engine design and carburation and played a major role in the development of the famed Novi engine with his brother, Bud. He is generally recognized as the “Father of the Racing Cam Business,” making his first performance camshaft in 1914 at age 13 and is credited with creative cylinder head designs and other engine advancements.
A Winfield exotic camshaft was in Bulchowsky's Old Yeller

Demonstrating that some people can't even park into a ordinary parking spot, the simple spot, not a parallel parking situation
What do you think was their malfunction? Abject stupidity? Loss of their bifocal glasses? Read more...

A variety of cool stuff from Fantomatik75 blogspot
Never seen a primitive street sweeper before? Me neither
1936 Chicago, why aren't these viable parking stuctures now?
Looks like a knife sharpener, door to door, and probably early 1910's or 1920's

NYPD detectives parking illegally, and getting towed!
Dozens of detectives say they have had their department cars towed — by their own department.
On at least 35 occasions, have walked outside to find their cars hooked by a special detail of the Internal Affairs Bureau that hunts for illegally parked cop cars.

Comments in this news article point out that the cops took overtime pay to get the cars out of the tow yard. Further endearing is that the city cars, were being locked up... by... the city. So, stupidity abounds, NYPD cops are hypocrites and not aware of the oath of office they swore (and that pisses me off) and then complained about Internal Affairs busting them for being parking a-holes. Int he word of the great Walter Matthau "Putz!"
But when their former leader New York City police commissioner Kerik just plead guilty to no less that 8 Ferderal Felony Charges, what can you expect of leaderless NYPD? That their integrity would be scupulous? http://topics.nytimes.com/top/reference/timestopics/people/k/bernard_b_kerik/index.html?inline=nyt-per
not that I'm on a roll, but everywhere you look at New York news the cops are hypocrits and worse http://queenscrap.blogspot.com/2010/03/another-cop-claims-he-was-pressured-to.html

What loser parks like this?
Is there a asshole interlock? When you can afford this bus, does it remove your civility?
For more proof of the asshole interlock: http://justacarguy.blogspot.com/2008/06/funniest-apology-note-ever.html
