Post-mortem from ‘Cars’

If you remember the opening of Cars where Lightning McQueen leap in the air with his tongue out? I think Carlgene looks like him.

Carlgene pick up this book after the movie which I think it’s a good buy too although it’s a bit pricey. But what the heck. Afterall, it’s a book and not a toy right?

It is basically a cars guide book with lots of picture and illustration. I am trying to catch a glimpse of the waterfall or Route 66 but sadly to say, they did not mentioned anything about the history. Managed to show you guys this.

Magnificient view!!!

Yesterday I did a lot of google on Route 66 and was impressed with the journey and history of it. If not with the rising of petroleum, I might make a trip there to conquere it.

Oh ya! Did you notice my new header. Picture courtesy from Eric Swanger took from Carhenge, Nebraska. The Cadillac Ranch, located along the tatters of historic Route 66, was built in 1974, brainchild of Stanley Marsh 3, the helium millionaire who owns the dusty wheat field where it stands. The ten graffiti-covered cars are half-buried, nose-down, facing west “at the same angle as the Cheops’ pyramids.”

    […] I think I am more hardcore than Prince.  I’m head-over-heels over Cars merchandises. I can’t resist the temptation of buying each time I saw any of them.  Remember that Essential Cars Guide book that I’ve bought the other time?  This time it was a wind breaker.  Not very expensive cos I bought them from pasar malam (night market)…. sheesh! […]
