when they stumbled across the rap group 7262 shooting a video

And then 7262 invited them into the shoot

for the video, which is so ummm… bad choice of lyrics, lets say, https://youtu.be/oxIs_66fOMQ But unless you’re a fan of bullshit gangster rap from teenagers that have no clue how to sharpen a knife or load a pistol, its not really something you’ll appreciate listening to. The bridesmaids and wedding party playing along thou, is humorous.

the wedding photo album though? OUT Effing STANDING : http://www.breakfastwithadam.com/amy-ian-married-colony-club-detroit/

If your wedding photos aren’t this good, go break their tripod. You deserve photos at least this good:

Mr Gan explains that he paid in cash because he had amassed a huge amount of small denomination coins and notes through the petrol station where he works.

Gan said many clients at his petrol station were the city’s bus drivers, who pay in one-yuan coins when they come to refuel their vehicles.

“The fare [that] bus companies collected are all one-yuan coins and they used that money to pay us,” Gan told the Peninsula Morning News, a state-run newspaper in the province.

The bus fare in Shenyang city, the capital of Liaoning province, costs one yuan.

 “As our station is in the suburbs, there are very few banks. So we didn’t deposit the coins and decided to use them to buy a car for our company,” he says.

The buyer warned staff at the car dealership in advance about his unusual payment method, and the cash was neatly wrapped in small packages. But it still posed a logistical challenge – employees needed more than an hour to move all the cash into the showroom. They then had the unenviable task of gathering it all up again and taking it to the bank.

He bought a Toyota SUV for his service station to use as a company car.

I was already buying the book when they said, it comes with the calendar, and goes in a pizza box! Awesome!

It’s June 17, 1994, and Turbo Pizza in Houston, Texas, is faced with an influx of orders as three major events — the NBA playoffs, the 1st World Cup hosted by the USA, and national coverage of OJ Simpson’s infamous police chase in Los Angeles — can either make or break the last independent pizza place in town on the busiest pizza delivery day in history

This is a rated R comedy, with an underriding plot being the results of the bored wife ordering pizza to have sex with the pizza guy. “Is It Still Hot”, the magic 4 code words that are better than a cash tip.

But the main story is the young guy on the edge of deciding to be a pizza guy forever (8 years of delivering, and you’ll die a pizza delivery guy) or getting on the career track with the local PD like his dad did, impressing his girlfriend, and happily ever after.

But check this bit of coolness out, not jut a comic book, this “Deep Dish Omnibus” is all 6 individual comic books in one, and adding to the fast pace, great writing and imagery, are the cassette tape icons telling you to play the songs listed on page one of each chapter, to double up on the experience… visual and audio soundtrack to make for a killer experience. No book I’ve ever read has ever done THAT! It’s incredibly innovative!

“Roller Balls (legendary lifer pizza delivery guy) tip #2 Change your horn to sound like a doorbell so the customer will come to the door quicker”

the pizza delivery guys are all driving, but some are driving Mopars!

The main character, Figgs, has a 440 powered, pizza cutter hood ornamented, ’78 Dodge Monaco “Black Thunder”

A ’70 Hemi ‘Cuda “The Slayer” is the ride of

Yehudi was a pizza delivery driver but now draws and writes for a living. He’s done video games, music videos, short films, screenplays, commercials, an animated series and graphic novels. As a child, Yehudi would throw himself down several flights of stairs in order to prepare himself to be a stunt man. Bruising and breaking easily, Yehudi took the easy way out and chose to draw and film stunts instead. He lives with his girlfriend, Eileen, in Austin, TX.

this is the only DD1 blue A990 race hemi Belvedere made in 1965

101 A990 race hemi Belvederes and 101 Coronets were built for NHRA Super Stock races.

This car was featured in the April 2015 Muscle Car Review, but I can’t find a link to the restoration article online… but the good news is that the car is freshly restored.

Moreover, this Plymouth was also built on the first day of 1965 Race Hemi production (November 25, 1964, at the Lynch Road Plant). It is the former pride and joy of longtime Mopar historian Walt Redmond. Rick Mahoney is its present owner.
