I think I’m going to put this in the sidebar or something. I found it on a video gaming forum while searching for something completely unrelated.
I like the notion of turning the ‘footprint of the American Chicken’ into something quite different.
This is out of the archives. The better half took this last May when we were out for a drive.
I wish I had found this nice white 1956 Chevrolet Bel Air Convertible picture to post with some other white vehicles a while back.
While the better half and I were driving in traffic today, we spotted this bumper sticker on a little pickup truck. We didn’t know WTF this meant, so I Googled it a while ago. Apparently, there is an ad hoc website promoting a “Keep Portland Weird” theme.
Keep Portland Weird is about supporting local business in the Portland Oregon area. We want to support local business because they make Portland stand out from other cites and make it a more unique place to live. They do this by providing consumers a wide range of products that represent the different cultures that make up Portland. Local business also have pride in our city and are driven to make Portland a better place to live and enjoy.
Here, 976 miles south of Portland, we have no problem “Keeping California Weird.”
The weirdest stuff comes up in some of my internet searches. I Googled ‘licorice gun,’ looking for what I remember from childhood as a miniature revolver made out of licorice. I didn’t find the licorice, but this is one of the things that did come up:
Gun Holster Cake from The Cake Engineer, which took Second Place, Centennial Category, Semi-Professional Division, in the Mid-Atlantic Cake Show 2008.
The “leather” on the holster and belt is embossed. Everything from the bullets to the belt buckle is edible. Click on the thumbnail for the big picture.
