Looks Dodgish to me.

I say Plymouth Roadrunner. Which probably has a Dodge sibling.

eta: Really, that's kinda' tough, as we only get a not-so-clear look at the grill. But look at the top of the hood too....

Yeah, that does look right.

Thanks!

Now I'm earwormed with the Roadrunner cartoon theme song.

Also, I miss the days when TV villians drove Lincoln Continentals.

If anyone missed the Colbert Report last night, you can hear the newly elected Representative John Hall (formerly of the band Orleans) and SC dueting on the National Anthem here!

From The Onion:

Republicans Blame Election Losses On Democrats

WASHINGTON, DC—Republican officials are blaming tonight's GOP losses on Democrats, who they claim have engaged in a wide variety of "aggressive, premeditated, anti-Republican campaigns" over the past six-to-18 months. "We have evidence of a well-organized, well-funded series of operations designed specifically to undermine our message, depict our past performance in a negative light, and drive Republicans out of office," said Republican National Committee chairman Ken Mehlman, who accused an organization called the Democratic National Committee of spearheading the nationwide effort. "There are reports of television spots, print ads, even volunteers going door-to-door encouraging citizens to vote against us." Acknowledging that the "damage has already been done," Mehlman is seeking a promise from Democrats to never again engage in similar practices.

Hmmmm. I wonder how long it'll take for the Republicans to blame the '06 election results on Bill Clinton?

The Onion rules.

Timelies all!

Yay! I have tomorrow off!

Does everyone know about the Tunguska Explosion of 1908? (The X-Files made reference to it.)

On June 30th, 1908, at 7:15am, in Tunguska (an extremely remote and almost zero-populated area of the central Siberian plateau) a hugefuckingmngously-gigantic meteorite (or perhaps comet) of some type exploded (at 40 megatons) six to eight kilometers above the earth's surface (presumably after coming in contact with the atmosphere layer) and it's subsequent impact instantly devastated 1,000 square kilometers of forest... felling trees outward in a radial pattern. The immediate fires burned for weeks ...eventually destroying a total of 2,150 square kilometers of forest, all of which remained scorched and flattened for decades (the immense damage is still easily visible today).

According to recordings at meteorological stations at the time, the seismic activity measured 5.0 on the Richter scale, and according to devices worldwide, the air compression wave went twice around the entire planet (bouncing both times). The blast itself, in whatever context it might have occurred, is estimated have been 40 megatons, which is 2,000 times the force of the atomic bomb exploded over Hiroshima in 1945. Even the asteroid impact that caused the great Berringer crater in Arizona (some 50,000 years ago) is only estimated to be 3.5 megatons. The mass of the object has been guessed at about 100,000 tons (and about 60 meters in diameter), but what exactly made up this mass is unclear (most agree it was probably a loose 'glob' of rocks and ice).

Fascinating....

I first read about that in the People's Almanac when I was in 5th grade or so. The Science Channel has had some very informative documentaries on the subject, including interviews with some elderly Siberians who remember the explosion firsthand.
