    It's good to know that no matter how weird of a creation you come up with, there is a woman willing to climb in it.

    I came across the Weirdcars site today. Much of the content is after our era, but not all. But a lot of it isn't all that weird, either.

    Heres an odd one for you. Saw this in a used car lot that specialized in older vehicles just outside of Kingman, Arizona.That was in 2012. I went back in 2014 and the whole yard was gone. Bummer, he had some nice stuff! October 2 2012 039.JPG

    I rode the bus to school in Litchfield Park, from close outside Luke Air Force Base. Specifically we lived in a Spartan mobile home in the desert.

    Everyday we went past Luke Air Force Base the airplane graveyard and the Goodyear blimp in Goodyear Arizona. I cannot find that airplane graveyard on Google Earth so perhaps they have cleaned it up between 1964 and now. Or maybe the dod just cleaned up Google Earth.

    I don't know but it doesn't appear to be there anymore.

    Anyhow my point of all this Meandering is the blimp. We often saw the blimp docked in Goodyear or flying in and out, and when I look at some of these cars I always think, " gee that look like the blimp going down a road."

    Interesting...
    Early last summer there was this "great warning!"about how the US military was going to take over portions of the US. The first targeted area was to be in Texas. There were more than this single post on the 'net describing the take-over. There was a tie-in with Obama, of course.
    A guy had a video showing multitudes! of military vehicles, tanks, & weaponry row upon row..
    The video looked real enough. There were high fences all around, etc.
    He gave the location where he had taken the video, but when I looked it up on Google Earth, there wasn't anything there.
    Now, this all turned out to be a great hoax but it does make one wonder where all those military armaments that he filmed were, if indeed they were near that given location.
    Perhaps the DOD did get their hands on it or make Google suppress those kinds of sites.

    Real ugly but not 100% Hambly. I think this was built (or reconfigured) in the 70's
