 Buy my car
picture Sob, I'll have to sell my car. Well, I don't HAVE to. I could ship it to France. But there's annoying bureaucratic paperwork in the way of doing that easily. And it is not like there aren't any big Mercedes cars in Europe, but in a lot of places it would be hell to park. City streets and parking spaces just tend to be made for smaller cars. Not that it can't be fun with a car that is extravagantly big. In Denmark I had a huge old American car, and it was sort of fun to fill the whole street, and have a 7 liter car when normal people had a 1.3 liter car. But at this point I think I'll more be in the mood for a normal size Citroen or something. So, my 1989 Mercedes 420SEL is for sale, and it kind of needs to happen quickly. I just put it in the papers for $6500 with that in mind. But for you, web special, how about $5500? Pretty excellent condition. V8, 4.2L, all power, all leather, airbags, ABS, blah, blah. And you can put your own last name on the license plate.

 Panoramas
picture Greg Wright brought this one to my attention: panoramas.dk. Full screen 360 degree panoramas of great places on our planet. I just love 360 degree pictures. Requires a quicktime plugin if you don't have it. Try the lost city of Petra, or the view from the summit of Mt.Everest.
