Thanks for sharing that thought provoking piece Jim!!!

If you don't mind the language, you have to watch this short movie. Only 9 minutes long
and funny as heck.




Seen that one before, quite some time back.

Enjoyed it just as much or perhaps even more this time around ..... "the voice said"!!!  ;c)



That's cause I posted it here back on Jan. 24. 2023.
It's still funny as hell.

 I thought that was perfectly accurate and appropriate, but Paralee didn't seem to agree with my assessment when I read it to her .... go figure?!?!

The VW Kombi van was a popular choice as a vehicle for surfing safaris in the sixties and seventies in Australia.

Had one from the early 70's until just a few years ago. Sold it to the right person on the promise that he'd do right by its restoration .... and he has!!!

Here it is now, being shown in events from Lake Havasu to the So. Cal. Coast:
