from the newspapertree: Race, Revolt, Repeat, pt 1 »

racing does happen here. the problem is it gets scant help from the supposed powers in this town. should the narco wars end, binational racing would help both sides of the boundary. heck, the columbus hiway is already a great road to race, it’s not all about i-10 and crotch rocketeers.

Sewing machines are back in fashion - Telegraph »

now i know trgw tumbld this, but i’m just glad i still have pinkie’s machina, and my late 60s singer that is about as cute as an olivetti valentine (srsly).

however, the creme de la creme has got to be my 1970s era bernina 830 record, the volvo of sewers. now that’s class. kind of the speedgraflex camera of sewing machines.
