It’s Monday. Quiet. There’s almost nobody outside. All that can be heard in my neighborhood is the electric hum of air conditioners. Much of the country is experiencing extreme heat and humidity as summer has now officially begun. I checked out our 10-day forecast and it doesn’t look like we get much of a break in the foreseeable future. But hey, at least it’s not snowing!

Can you believe that “Jaws” is celebrating its 50th anniversary this month? The film premiered on June 20th, 1975 and went on to traumatize audiences around the world. It had been decades since we last saw it, so the girlfriend and I watched it over the weekend. Despite its age, I was surprised to find that it held up very nicely. Several events and screenings are planned to mark the 50th anniversary, including a special re-release in theaters. A documentary, “Jaws @ 50,” will also premiere on National Geographic on July 10th, then Disney+ and Hulu on July 11th.

It’s Friday! Took the Vette out yesterday to grab some dinner and test the new rubber. Had a really nice drive and I’m very happy with the new Michelins. It’s supposed to be heating up over the weekend, so I’m hoping to take it out again soon.

Today I have some automotive goodness to share with everyone. The girlfriend and I checked out Cruise Night in Morris, Illinois, last Saturday night. It was their first show of 2025 and it attracted 785 cars. I took a bunch of photos at the show and put them together in a gallery below. Enjoy the photos along with the usual Friday double babes & double jokes!

It’s Thursday. This is funny. One of my readers used ChatGPT to place his Corvette in various scenes. The renaissance fair photo pictured above is genius!

Hey Keeper –

You featured my C8 a few years ago, and I saw your latest post.

I asked ChatGPT to put my car in a different scene using the base image from my build sheet. Impressive.

The Renn Faire prompts:
“using the original image can you place the car in a renaissance faire setting with actors reacting to the anachronism?”
“can you change the scene on this so show it in a snowy parking lot at night?”

AI is gonna be scary 🙂
