Japanese Bikini Car Wash and World's Shortest Runway - Video

Our first video comes straight from an air show where the pilots perform tricky maneuvers that make you wonder why they don't get killed. This pilot lands his plane on a moving runway that is not much longer than the plane itself. Quite Remarkable.

I guess that pilot skill tells it all, and this pilot lets his skill shine through.



Now that is some remarkable flying, but can he do it in a Boeing 767? Seriously, that must be the shortest runway ever, and the only other moving runways I can think of are on aircraft carriers.

Learning how to perform that trick might place you in harm's way because you would have to make the landing on your first try.

This next video comes from an auto commercial that was supposed to play in the US, but I have not seen it yet. It adds an entire new twist to videos with scantily clad beauties washing your car in the school parking lot.

It has the plenty of water fights and very little clothes worn by the washers, but...well, you pretty much need to see it to understand. Watch.

Redneck Graffiti 2008

We have neglected our redneck graffiti for awhile, so it is time for another installment. Here are a few choice ones.


You have to admire Bubba's frugality. That guy sure knows how to save a buck. Think I'll git him to help me "shop" for some new tires for my car.


That was sure some quick thinking on Billy Bob's part. That must have been a bad fire because I have heard that manure burns slowly and for a long time.


Ol' Betty Lu is always thinking because I never knew that airplanes got that breezy.

We will leave with the eternal question of:

How do you know when you're staying in a Redneck hotel?

When you pick up the phone, call the front desk and say, "I've got a leak in my sink," and the person at the front desk replies, "Well, ya’ll go right ahead."

Redneck Sets Himself on Fire

The following video is of a redneck who actually sets himself on fire with the help of his so called “friends,” a word used loosely in this context.

When you are still at that immature age where you continue to make questionable decisions, it is probably a wise idea not to listen to your friends who are trying to convince you to set yourself on fire so they can video tape it.

If you get a phone call something like this, stop hanging out with this "friend:"

"Hello, Billy Bob? Yeah, this is Jimbo here. Say, Billy Bob! We’re gonna have a little barbeque tomorra night, so why don’t you come by wearing some heavy clothes and bring some barbeque starter fluid with ya."

"Why? Wall, cuz’ we want to impress the girls by settin’ you onfar and then video tapin’ it."

"What? Ahh, no! There’s no danger. We’ll take good care o you, Billy Bob. You know thet. Okay? See ya then."

You should know that they use the “f” word a couple of times in this one, so you have been warned.


In the next video a couple of racing Porsches bite the dust, which is truly a waste of some fine vehicles.



Our final video shows yet another redneck who is a motorcycle enthusiast who lays waste to his bike through his own poor planning. How do these rednecks get by in a world where they make such huge blunders anyway?

Boeing 720 Gives Birth to Cessna 172

News of Note:

Dateline: Washington, D.C. The Washington Post reported today that a Boeing 720 has given birth to a Cessna 172 single prop aircraft. The proud papa is an Airbus 340, and this is the first successful mating in captivity of a Boeing with a French made Airbus according to the Post’s report.

Prior to this the Boeing has been far too shy to mate while in captivity, whereas the French Airbus will mate pretty much anywhere. Said French President Nicolas Sarkozy, “But, of course, it eez a French aircraft. What else would you expect?”

An unidentified source at Boeing was reported to have hinted that the Boeing company has begun to embrace the outlook that breeding new airplanes will prove far more cost effective than manufacturing them. The difficult part of the process will be rearing and training the young Cessna both to develop and behave like a Boeing.

“This process is still in its infancy, if you will pardon the pun,” said the source. “A great deal more study is needed to produce the type of offspring we desire.”

Last month a Russian made IL-78 Tanker gave birth to twins, while another tanker had triplets. Here is a photo of the tanker mother breast feeding her twin MIG-31s. Another photo of a an IL Tanker mother feeding her jet fighter triplets is below that.

Although prolific, the Russian tankers have proven to be less than reliable. The problem with the IL Tanker is that it will mate with just about anything, and the fathers of both the twins and the triplets are unknown.

An unidentified source at Boeing said that it is difficult to obtain a very high sales price for such mutt fighters. When the father is some unknown crazy Russian aircraft, there just is not much of a market for those type of planes.

There was even one case of an IL-78 that had hooked up with an Italian sports car. “We believe that the suitor was a lead footed Ferrari, but we put stop to that relationship in a hurry,” said a Russian spokesman.

“Imagine what the result of that mating might be,” said the spokesman. “The offspring would probably have to be sent directly to the scrap yard.”

“These tankers simply have to begin staying away from the type of machine that is a bad influence,” the source said.

We also show a photo of a Boeing and the Airbus just prior to the mating ritual. The photo depicts just how precarious aircraft mating can be.

An Airbus spokesperson is reported to have stated that any premature disarticulation could prove catastrophic for both aircraft. “An error of that nature at that altitude could render both airplanes sterile,” the spokesperson said.

“We certainly do not need an Airbus in our fleet that is incapable of procreation. Fatherhood is a trait the French people cherish highly. And that goes for our aircraft as well,” the spokesperson said.

The final photo is that of a French Airbus 300 being prepared for surgery to reverse a vasectomy, which was previously a common procedure for the Airbus. The French wanted to prevent unwanted little airbuses suddenly appearing without notice.

Now that parturition is becoming more common for these aircraft, reverse vasectomies are also increasingly popular.

Drunk and Not-So-Dumb Blonde Humor

A drunk and a blonde are sitting next to each other on an airplane. The drunk asks the blonde if she would like to play a game.

The blonde, who is tired and really just wants to take a nap, politely declines to participate and rolls over toward the window to go to sleep.

The drunk persists, explaining how the game works. "I ask you a question, and if you don't know the answer, you pay me. If you ask me a question that I don’t know the answer to, I will pay you."

The blonde again declines politely still hoping to get some sleep.

The drunk, figuring that he will easily win because his opponent is a blonde, increases the attractiveness of his offer. "If you don't know the answer to my question, you only pay me $5, but if I don't know the answer to your question, then I will pay you $500."

The blonde figures the drunk will continue tormenting her unless she plays, so she reluctantly agrees.

The drunk asks the first question, "What's the distance from the earth to the moon?"

The blonde reaches into her purse, removes a five-dollar bill, and hands it to the drunk. Then she asks the drunk, "What goes up a hill with three legs, but comes down with four?"

The drunk is puzzled. He uses his laptop to search for references, taps into the plane’s air-phone with his modem and even searches the Internet and the Library of Congress. Frustrated, he tries emailing his coworkers, family and friends with no luck. After about an hour, he finally gives up.

He wakes the blonde and hands her $500. The blonde takes the $500, then turns back to the window to get back to sleep.

The drunk is going nuts still trying to figure it out. He wakes the blonde asking, "Well, tell me, what goes up a hill with three legs but comes down with four?"

The blonde reaches into her purse, hands the drunk $5, then goes back to sleep.

More Redneck Jokes

Here are some more redneck jokes. Most have been around for awhile, but some are new to me. If you haven't heard them before, they can still be funny.

You might be a redneck if:

Your uncle’s return mailing address is the Department of Corrections.

Your wife refuses a window seat on the airplane because she just got her hair done.

You kept that fire you had in your bathroom from spreading to the house.

You buy your sushi at the corner bait store.

You think the first day of deer hunting season is a religious holiday.

You think “coke” is brown, wet and served with ice.

You think your son has a new girl friend because he's trying to score some “mary jane.”

You “shop” for golf balls at the driving range at midnight.

Pilots vs Mechanics

This is one that I first heard about 15 years ago. I forgot about it and have seen it surface in different versions since then. The other versions list the Air Force and several different airlines, but the first time I heard it, Northwest Airlines mechanics and pilots were the crews involved. I thought I would resurrect it here:

Here are what some swear are copies of actual maintenance complaints submitted by Northwest Airlines pilots on planes they flew and the replies from the mechanics crews who were responsible for maintaining the airplanes:

Complaint: "Left inside main tire almost needs replacement."
Mechanic’s solution: "Almost replaced left inside main tire."

Complaint: "Test flight OK, except autopilot very rough."
Mechanic’s solution: "Autopilot not installed on this aircraft."

Complaint: "The autopilot doesn't."
Mechanic’s solution: "IT DOES NOW."

Complaint: "Something loose in cockpit."
Mechanic’s solution: "Something tightened in cockpit."

Complaint: "Evidence of hydraulic leak on right main landing gear."
Mechanic’s solution: "Evidence removed."

Complaint: "DME unit volume unbelievably loud."
Mechanic’s solution: "Volume set to more believable level."

Complaint: "Dead bugs on windshield."
Mechanic’s solution: "Live bugs on order."

Complaint: "Autopilot in altitude hold mode produces a 200 fpm descent."
Mechanic’s solution: "Cannot reproduce problem on ground."

Complaint: "IFF inoperative."
Mechanic’s solution: "IFF inoperative in OFF mode."

Complaint: "Friction locks cause throttle levers to stick."
Mechanic’s solution: "That's what they're there for."

Complaint: "Number three engine missing."
Mechanic’s solution: "Engine found on right wing after a short search."
