The Business Of Nostalgia – Part 2

Drive Time

Last week we looked at Brabus Classic doing their Germanic number on restoring old Mercedes cars.  This week, we turn our gaze upon a guy (who looks suspiciously like a Teutonic version of Don Draper from Mad Men), and his company called Early 911S, which specializes in restoring Porches of the air-cooled Boxer-engine era to their ummm earlier magnificence.  Help yourself to an hour or so of watching the pros go about their business.

As I said last week, I can’t fit into any sports car, let alone the dinkies of that era, but I have to say that one of those cherry 356 numbers would look extremely good in my post-Powerball garage…

Yeah, they do the 356 (which I think is beautiful) as well as the 911 (which isn’t).

And then, of course, there’s RUF.

Business, Marketing / Advertising, Movies

I love to read bullshit like this:

John Wick 4 trailer sets up battle between Keanu Reeves and Bill Skarsgard: ‘Only one can survive’

Uh huh.  Like any movie studio is going to kill off the hero of a very successful “franchise”.  I can just visualize the management’s response to some young dimwit suggesting that action:

Let’s face it:  when it comes to art, business always wins.  Always.

Afterthought:  I watched the first Wick movie, hated it with a passion (actually never made it to the end) so I’ve never watched any of the sequels.  The above post has more to do with the marketing thereof than anything related to the movie itself.

News Roundup

Bad News

Brought to you by:

And piss-poor the news is, too:


...aren’t you the guys who started the 2008 global economic crash?


...and we’ll tell you to stick it up your ass.


...can you say “errant torpedo”, children?


...and take a rough guess as to which party and what kind of people would oppose this.


...vs. tens of thousands of law-abiding gun owners in the same city who would disagree.  And on that note:


...and that’s “official” sales. Yup;  the more they hate us and our guns, the more we buy.


...too bad he didn’t start with himself.  Metaverse is going to pull the whole company down.


...thus making instant criminals of a couple hundred thousand people when they tell him to fuck off. 


...a little too late to help John McEnroe, but oh well.


...I was wondering when the feministicals would get round to ol’ Warren.


…unless you’re talking to socialists, in which case you need a spiked ClueBat.

And from linkless INSIGNIFICA:

        

Finally, here’s an Alt-PAIGE 3:



...have to say she’s not bad (in that “rough chick” kinda way), but she’s not a patch on the Real Paige.

YMMV.

Good Stuff, Gratuitous Chick Pics

Wow, here’s an interesting one, from a Florida Girl no less:

Bryce Adams is no stranger to sexy snaps – and has shot to success by filming bonks with her boyfriend, which they share on the adult subscription site.  However, getting frisky for fans is not the only ingredient to the natural beauty’s success.

The 29-year-old, from Florida in the US, has an ‘authentic’ approach to the adult industry.

She documents all parts of her life – even petting her cat (no innuendo intended) – and the non-sexual content has helped her to build up a huge community of fans. 

Her followers include those in the Armed Forces, which has spurred her on to raise more than $70,000 (£61,000) for charity.

Bryce is grateful for the men and women of her country, who put their lives on the line so wanted to show her gratitude in her own unique way.

And so she decided to take her clothes off to raise money for Veterans Day (Friday 11 November).

She asked her 24,000 Twitter followers to retweet her naughty snaps – and for every retweet, she will donate $1 for veterans of the armed forces.

Bryce explained: “Veterans Day is near and dear to my heart.  I appreciate veterans and I thought, hey this is a totally different way for me to try and connect and support the veterans.

I know, you’re too lazy to follow the link…

Good for her, say I.
