Carlisle: it’s almost here
It sure came fast and as usual I am rushing to the end in order to get ready. I attended a local show over the past weekend and there was some white dandelion-type stuff floating through the air all day. It made my semi clean interior a mess. I...
Carlisle banner
This year one of the Carlisle policies for having a club tent requires having a banner. Not a bid deal but the problem has been getting the inspiration for a design. I want to do something different but also not too specific as my plan is to hang it...
Added Google charts to the registry
In mid-2006 I did a geographical analysis of where the cars in my registry were located. It consisted of superimposing the counts per state over a map of the U.S. I used increasing size fonts to further emphasize. It was nice but it was a pain in the neck...
My latest creative collaboration
Over the “off season”, I agreed to do the graphics for a car show sign for Marshall. His yellow feature car is pictured in front of a jet in the post I wrote a few months back. Way back a long, long time ago I did my own sign...

1993 Ford Motorsport Nationals in Maple Grove PA – Was Your TWF There?
The large number of triple white feature cars present at the 1993 Ford Motorsport Nationals only recently came to my attention via the comments on a recent post. Ken (cobra2top) was kind enough to capture some of the images from his VHS recording of the event. Ken shared: They...
Achieving a balance with nature
I have a lot of respect for nature and our earth. I have written about preserving our earth for the future as well as responsible outdoor lighting. But, this isn’t about that at all. I took my son to a birthday party over the weekend on Saturday. It was...
92 Feature Car Literature Update
Ryan (Rare_92) scanned the Vitamin See article from the November 1992 issue of Mustang & Fords. I have updated my ’92 article page to include it. I previously just had a really bad picture of the article that I grabbed off of ebay. This is one issue I don’t...
Earth Hour, Kill-a-watt and electricity usage
Last night’s Earth Hour reminded me that I had wanted to write about electricity usage at my house and had already drafted this entry. It turned out that Earth Hour was not well observed in my neighborhood. It looked like every other night on my street. Our house was...
