NJACO's Crazy, Amazing, Jaw-Dropping Pics - Page 4 - Aircraft of World War II

Now some for Lucky. Not exactly artistic but jaw-dropping all the same.

"The owner of the cars was a car dealer in the 1970s and 1980s, and decided to save the more interesting cars that came through his doors. When the barn was full, he padlocked and “soldered” the doors shut. (Perhaps welding was too permanent.) Web sites varied on the number of cars: 58, 100, and 180 were speculated. According to Morais, there are 180 cars in the barn."

Man. You read about stuff like that all the time. There was a guy here in Tacoma that recently died and he too stuffed away a few hundred cars that they now are turning into a museum. To bad that the "barn" apparently leaked and the dust has likely ruined many of those open topped cars.

Any body got anything better to do with their money? The first pic is what 206 million dollars looks like. The next two were a bill that was used in a Kentucky Dairy Queen. SUCCESSFULLY. The purchase was for $2 and the cashier gave the guy $198 in change. On the front is a picture of George W Bush. One of the lawn signs on the back reads, "We like broccoli".

The others are Ms. Monroe, a dress made of money and a castle, along with some dollar bill oragami.
