Moonshiners were in desperate need of avoiding cops during the Prohibition era (1920-1933), and thus, these heifer-heels were born. They’d use these puppies to look like cows when traipsing through fields or across other terrain that might leave footprints for the authorities to track.
These shoes bring a whole new perspective to “hoofin’ it.”




Not all recovery tow hooks are made the same.

Not a good place for that!




Seeing that gull-winged silhouette coming at you, or gliding onto your six must have made much Japanese blood run cold.

In these behind-the-scenes shots from #Poltergeist—directed by Tobe Hooper and produced by Steven Spielberg and Frank Marshall—we can see ILM’s Larry Tan and Mark Thorpe rigging the Freeling’s family home for implosion.

My ******* friends used to do that to my Mustang in high school. They liked to put its butt on the sidewalks.

It's getting warmer out. Remember to check on your exhaust coolant levels.


The French SNECMA Coléoptère vertical take-off aircraft, which first flew on 6 May 1959. It was a single-person aircraft with an annular wing designed to land vertically, therefore requiring no runway and very little space to take-off. There were several prototypes developed and tested, however the design proved to be very unstable and flying it was dangerous.




Dang thing will not get tight!




The States of Italy in 1299 AD


Photograph of two men and a woman sitting on the front porch of a store, Claiborne County, Tennessee, late 1940'.
