He spun and hit the water feet first which is good, because I know for me, hitting the water skull first from that height would give me a HUGE headache.

I've seen this one before. Any hole that their beak can fit through they can fit through (relatively).

Genius idea for it's time.

I think I have been a passenger in one or two vehicles with that seat belt shoulder strap. I much prefer a standard shoulder strap if you have to live with the car on a daily basis (thank goodness, I never owned one with that "feature").

I watched that one at least 6 times and can't see that he spun over....of course you may be seeing it on a larger screen.




Fun at 80 years old.

I've never done this myself...but been right there when someone else did it. It's bad.

Handy for the left lane campers...if it had real bullets.

Did you see what his helmet said. It was almost true.

This is great, a little Karmic beyotch slap.

The driver of the truck was not at fault for the rear end collision. He could/can be charged with something else, IDK what. But if he stopped suddenly for an animal and she hit him, she was not in control. Brake checking might be assault, but rear ending has no excuse. If you're not ready, you're the one that pays.

/\ /\ /\. Father in law had a pick your own blueberry farm he worked on weekends. Birds were eating the berries so he set up this speaker that made a shotgun blast noise every few minutes. Didn’t take long before the birds were sitting on it, unafraid. He finally netted the whole field.

^^^ I had never thought of that problem with solar panels.
Blueberry farm near me uses a compressed air cannon which goes off every few minutes. Don't know if it works or not.




I'm going to get one of these...have always wondered about bf flushing.
