A massive F1 fan, Clarkson has entertained multiple drivers at his farm, with Piastri featuring in the most recent series of Clarkson's Farm
Jeremy refers to Alpine as the 'Chipping Norton Formula 1 team', with the outfit and the farm based within a close proximity of each other.
Alpine has a strong relationship with Clarkson, with the TV personality previously supplying copious amounts of beer to aid the celebrations after podiums in the 2023 Monaco and 2024 Brazilian grands prix.

Traffic cameras around New York City have caught James Giovansanti committing 547 violations since 2022. He's an officer in the New York City Police Department. (Thank you George and Kim!)
Why don't they screen the people they hire, and do a decent background check?

Nashville PD was looking out for this Chevelle... told the owner to park next to them during the parade
one of the officers said "That's a sweet ride. Do you want to park where nobody will touch it?"
I said "yes Sir." He said "Follow me."
They led me to a section of the garage where all the police cars were parked and then said "Today you're parking with us! I guarantee you nobody's gonna mess with your Chevelle!!!"

Paul Pelosi, just off probation, and too stupid and rich to get a driver, did a hit and run in Yountville, California, home of the French laundry, in the middle of Napa Valley
back in 2022 he was busted drunk driving https://justacarguy.blogspot.com/2022/08/news-follow-up-on-drunk-driving-multi.html
his wife was a law maker, and he's the megamillionaire law breaker. Rich - entitled - connected piece of shit putting innocent bystanders lives in danger because he's a convicted damn drunk.. This time the cop ruled out drunk driving, probably because he's a local cop that doesn't want to ruin his career by being the one to bust the connected politician's husband for drunk driving
1985, the dozer went in, and never came out, of Witch Lake... they were laying cable for the ELF project.... Extreme Low Frequency, comms with subs (yeah, we could receive that under water, 1/2 the planet away in the Pacific)
Seems they did not know about making pads, or they would have built a caisson, and gotten that out of there in about a day
senior on her way to senior prom lays tracks after her dad said she didn't know how to do it.
As Kloe gets ready to pull away, her dad can be heard in the background saying "she loves that truck," which her mom affirms by saying "yes she does."
The grandparents are in attendance, too, adding "she takes after her parents, that's for sure."
It's then that the dad states that "she doesn't know how to do a burnout," but mom advises him not to watch what's about to happen as Kloe pulls out onto the road and proceeds to stop.

Valve cover and intake display.
which would typically look like :
what it would look like when displaying valve covers, and intake, in a speed shop. Damn, now I want one, so I can take the 6 pack off my R/T, run a big 4 barrel, and never worry about someone popping my hood and stealing my carbs.
Damn things are 3 to 4k a set, for ones that don't even work, and I wanted a mopar 6 pack for a decade before buying my R/T... 24 years ago, and it happened to have already been upgraded from the factory stock 4 barrel intake and carb to the A12 optional 6 pack.
But superchargers don't have 6 pack set ups, so far as I know, and I'd love to someday get a Novi supercharger 4 barrel combo. Pretty dang sure that would make more horse power.... you know, dream a little dream, right?
