"There's something strange about Tom Short's little yellow Datsun 1200. It might be that it can clear a quarter mile in a lightning-fast 14 seconds."
 

A cool concept, but unless he's racing Priuses (Prii?) or 1975 Ford Granadas, 14 seconds is not quite gonna cut it. 




What would be really neato is if they could run a car off of a giant one of these:



A truly "green" alternative with the only emissions being water.  And maybe Mentos.

The last time I saw Pat Boone was in the '90s.  His In A Metal Mood vinyl lp was on sale for $10 and at the time, I wanted to frame it and hang it on the wall.  Decided not to buy it and now kind of regret it.  Freakin' hilarious concept album.

My God, that is even worse than I imagined. 

Now I definitely have to get a copy.
