It’s Wednesday. Sometimes in life you gotta ask the difficult questions. For instance, what would happen if someone attached two jet engines to an ordinary canoe? Who knows, right? The only way to find out for sure is to go out there and do it. Thankfully, there are people out there like The Hacksmith who boldly risk their lives in the name of science. 

So there you are. Go ahead and check out the world’s fastest jet engine canoe.

It’s Tuesday. I love when readers send in cool stuff that they find out in the wild. For instance, check out this Cobra that reader Brian found sitting in a parking lot at a golf course. Is it a real Cobra? Not likely but seriously, who cares? The formula is still the same—big engine & lightweight chassis equal a hell of a lot of fun at a fraction of the cost! 

Thanks for taking the time so send it in, Brian.

Keep, Found this in the parking lot of a golf course. Not sure if it’s a kit car or the real deal. -Brian

It’s Monday. I had a fairly lazy Sunday. I got caught up watching the live coverage of the SpaceX Crew Dragon astronauts returning to Earth. When you think about everything that has to go perfectly right to get them up to the ISS and then return them home safely, it just bends the mind. It was a proud moment for the US and I’m glad I watched. I gotta admit, though, every time they referred to the astronauts as “Bob & Doug” I giggled like a little kid! Ya see, I grew up with SCTV and was a huge fan of Bob & Doug McKenzie (Rick Moranis and Dave Thomas) and their comedy skit “The Great White North”. I had their Grammy nominated album, saw their movie Strange Brew & purchased the DVD, and even had a Bob & Doug T-shirt (like this one) that I proudly wore so often that it became nearly transparent. Ah yes, the good ‘ole days!

Take off, ya hoser!
