Update, to the post on the art of Mateusz Urbanowicz Tokyo Storefronts


When you take the loose cover off, (Left) you get the (very clever) architecture under the paint, tiles, and color

and the cover when removed and opened, has the map inside of where these storefronts are located

this one store front is a cargo business, and that's a forklift in the front


this cool bike shop used to sell motorcycles, but the bike symbol up top is very cool! 





even this one shop, under a bridge. It's known as Radio Garden, but, I think it's the same as Radio Shack



and there are 3 businesses, that he even details the inside of

I was so impressed with the art, I looked around for the least expensive copy online, and this one, is in Chinese and English.

Liam Neeson ran a forklift after university, when he used to work at the Guinness bottling plant that used to operate in Ballymena.

Neeson said: "I loved it - it was a great job actually. My job was when the cases of Guinness came down, someone was stacking them on a palette, once they were stacked my forks would go in and lift them. Either load the lorry or stack them where they needed to be."

what does DHS need a forklift for? To lift the concertina wire the Texans have put on their border with Mexico, and circumvent states rights, to let immigrants in by the hundreds


 By Friday, October 27, federal agents were observed escalating their efforts to destroy Texas’s border barriers, using heavy machinery such as forklifts to uproot large sections of fencing to facilitate mass entry. 

In response, Texas Attorney General Paxton immediately filed an emergency motion for a temporary restraining order. Within half an hour of the filing, the Biden Administration further escalated the barrier destruction, as agents were filmed using a forklift to smash the fencing against the ground repeatedly.

 On Saturday Oct 28th, Texas filed additional documentation about this incident, and the motion for a temporary restraining order was granted the next working day, Monday, October 30. The federal court has set the hearing on Texas’s motion for preliminary injunction seeking to prevent the agents’ cutting, destroying, damaging, or otherwise interfering with Texas’s concertina wire fence for November 7, 2023.

Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton filed the initial lawsuit against the Biden Administration’s Department of Homeland Security, after numerous documented incidents of barrier destruction during a severe immigration surge in recent months. 

These instances often included using wire cutters to create gaps in fencing then waving aliens through and assisting their entry in other ways. At times, agents were observed attaching ropes to pickup trucks to enable aliens to scale the riverbank and enter the United States. 



When the state has been overwhelmed and it's unable to provide social services to illegal immigrants, and sends them to New York, and New York immediately regrets mouthing off about it's open door policy, and now evicts those immigrants from the shelters, by force, you might realize that central and south America countries have big problems socially and financially, and there is a mass exodus of those countries peoples into the USA, which really? Isn't coping well at all, and doesn't have the ability to insure operation of it's own government, short term or long term. Example, emergency funding for short term govt budget  https://www.cbsnews.com/news/2023-government-shutdown-house-vote-today/

the tv show about the 2 most fun women to ever pose with a forkloft is now on Amazon Prime

 

and I enjoyed it a lot as a kid, so I've been waiting and hoping that some streaming service would get it. Amazon Prime finally did. There are only 3 episodes of season 1 however.




and the th episode showed the inside of her father's pizza place and bowling alley. 
This is the most rated G show you can think of... it's amazing. Really cute 1950s culture though
And in season 2 Lavern learns to drive in a Hudson Hornet... really cool




The scene is obviously on a movie lot, and the buildings look really familiar, I bet that back lot was Paramount or Warner Brothers or one of these and had a lot of tv shows and movies filmed there

Clark Forklift Company, in the 1960s and 1970s, built motorhomes! I had no idea a forklift building company would do that... but the country was crazy about rvs back then


The first way Clark would differentiate itself from other manufacturers was with front-wheel-drive. A whole decade before General Motors did the same with the Motorhome, Clark paired a motorhome with a front engine driving the front wheels. The standard engine of a Clark Cortez was a 225 cubic-inch Chrysler Slant Six making 140 HP. That was bolted to a four-speed manual transaxle of Clark’s own design. Having a front-wheel-drive design allowed Clark to build a coach that was closer to the ground with a flat floor behind the engine. Clark wanted to build an RV that drove like a car, so in addition to making its Cortez coaches ride closer to the ground, the company also outfitted them with four-wheel independent suspension.

Here a brand new vertical twin Scout is being unloaded from an Eastern Airlines transport at the Atlanta Municipal Airport most likely bound for Ted Edwards Indian dealership. The airport was constructed in the infield of the old Atlanta Speedway racetrack where the first professional motorcycle race in the state was held in 1909. The track had fallen into disrepair by the 1920s and in 1925 was sold to the city for use as Atlanta's first airport, today it is the site of the Hartsfield Jackson International Airport.
