Compliment of the day!

Jesse, I really appreciate that your interest in "cool things with wheels" extends to railroads, aviation, and photography!

Thank you very much Don!

Blimps have a wheel too! Since I was always interested in all the stuff I've posted about, sometimes, I stretched my guiding rule a bit... like, dirigibles didn't have a wheel, I don't think, but blimps do, so I allow my rule to stretch to include them. 
Railroad tracks, bridges, etc don't have wheels, but they are only existing because of things with wheels, so I include them. 
Photography and art? Very much part of what I'm fascinated with, and the main two ways of showing those things with wheels on the blog, so they are always included, even when the photo or the art, isn't anything to do with wheels, like Calder's mobiles... he invented the mobile, and there are no wheels, but, he also invented the BMW art cars, so, I include the mobile on the blog... because of the impact it's inventor had on the automotive world, ditto his wire circus. 
My goodness, how can anyone not love railroads, trains, and planes? That's just a sign of being uncivilized! Lol. 
So nose art, gets it's place on the blog, mostly because I've always loved the puns, the pin ups, the art, and the WW2 factor, but then I found nose art on helicopters, jeeps, and tanks... so, art! Art gets a place on my blog. 
Aviation, I guess everything in aviation gets into the sky by rolling on wheels, maybe not the Wright brothers first gliders, or NASA moon rovers, but that's the nice part about my rule, it's extremely flexible.

  1. Jesse, as I have told you several times "it is your blog so pst what you want to." I am guilty of sending you things that not aways be Just A Car subjects and will continue to so. I'm sure you will tell me know and I will have no bad feelings. Carry On Sir!
