Friday Night Movie

Here’s the story of the Lancia company — and the title says it best:  The Power Of Fun.

My favorite Lancia models (in order):

Fulvia HF

D50 F1 (as driven by Fangio)

Stratos

Aurelia B24

Stradale

Every time Lancia decided to enter some form of racing, they’d win, win big and win with some groundbreaking new technology.  Very few (if any) auto companies can make the same claim.

I just wish they hadn’t been so horribly shafted by parent company Fiat… but that’s the corporate world for you.

Quote Of The Day

From the Knuckledragger:

“You know, a wise person would take a look at the [Bud Light] ad and the losses that Anheuser-Busch has taken, put two and two together and then realize that the huge majority of Americans are sick and tired of this tranny bullshit.”

Silly rabbit:  that assumes the existence of wisdom in Corporate America.

Train Smash Event

…annnnnd they’re off!

Yes, it’s time for the Train Smash Championship Stakes, at Aintree’s Grand National.  Sadly, though, the pics seem to have been taken before the pubs opened…

 

While some appeared to have not got the memo about only wearing weird and wonderful outfits…

Rather disappointing, in fact.  Maybe things will go pear-shaped later.
