It's a well known fact that accidents can occur anywhere at anytime, but sometimes you have to ask the question; How on earth did this happen?

Truck Which Transforms Into a Bar
July 11th 2008 02:43
The XXXX GOLD Retreat is a huge B Double truck which turns into a fully functional 2 level bar, along with a stage for interviews and a massive big screen.
The XXXX GOLD Retreat will be coming to all Australian rounds of the V8 Supercars Championship Series in 2008 and will be located in a prime viewing location at each track.
Check out the transformation below. Even if you're not into car racing, it would be worth going just to see this!

Automated Car Parks
February 25th 2008 13:46
Automatic multi-storey car parks provide lower building cost per parking slot than conventional car parks as they require less building volume and less ground area.
However, the disadvantage is the cost of the mechanical equipment within the building that is needed to transport cars to the parking spaces. Other costs are usually lower too, for example there is no need for an energy intensive ventilating system, since cars are not driven inside and human cashiers or security personnel may not be needed.
Automated car parks work as follows. The driver leaves the car in an entrance module. It is then transported to a parking slot by a robot trolley. For the driver, the process of parking is reduced to leaving the car inside an entrance module and walking away.
One disadvantage may be at peak periods when a wait may be involved before entering or leaving. The wait is caused by loading passengers and luggage at the entrance and exit locations of the car park rather than at the parked stall. This loading blocks the entrance or exit from being available to others. However the retrieval of vehicles can be faster in an automatic car park depending on the layout and number of exits.

We've all been stuck in awful gridlock traffic jams before, but was it ever as terrible as this one in Italy? Traffic is blocked just as bad going both ways!

What did they expect to happen when they wrote that on the side of the van?
I think the family changed their name after these two.

What's in the Barn?
October 17th 2007 09:38
A New York man retired. He wanted to use his retirement money wisely, so it would last, and decided to buy a home and a few acres in Portugal. The modest farmhouse had been vacant for 15 years. The owner and wife both had died, and there were no heirs.
The house was sold to pay taxes. There had been several lookers, but the large barn had steel doors, and they had been welded shut. Nobody wanted to go to the extra expense to see what was in the barn, and it wasn't complimentary to the property anyway......so, nobody made an offer on the place.
