    The Young Victoria

    Perhaps it would leave a purist dissatisfied, but as entertainment I found it thoroughly enjoyable. In fact, I could've continued watching where they left off! In typically British fashion, the characters are more important than the plot, and they are all played very well. Besides, we already...

    I'm stuck in the 80s...automotively

    Contrary to popular belief, I find American cars from the Eighties to be some of the most reliable and economical cars ever produced. They weren't terribly exciting, and not as well built as my '66 Buick for example, but they got decent mileage and had tasteful if uninspired styling. Ah, my...

    I'm stuck in the 80s...automotively

    When it comes time for tires, first I have to order whitewalls, then when they arrive I have to tell the fellow installing them to place the whitewalls on the outside! That's why I ordered them, dummy.

    Vintage inspired new years resolution

    Crown Coach, the Royalty of Pupil Transportation and Fire Apparatus

    If you grew up in California, Oregon, or Washington between 1950 and 1990, chances are pretty good that you rode to school in a school bus made by the Crown Coach Corporation of Los Angeles, California. And chances are also pretty good that if there was a fire, medical emergency, or auto...

    The Young Victoria

    Saw this last night in Pasadena, fantastic film! -Dave If Queen Victoria, in the great beyond, had a say in the matter, you could imagine her waving an imperious hand during the casting process for The Young Victoria, demanding that she be played by "that clever girl from The Devil Wears...
