It's Phunny Photo time, and with themes ranging from horse sense to conspiracy theories, I believe that today we have a phew gems you will like.
Hey boss! Did you try testing the alternator?

When folks get behind the wheel these days, look out! Whether it is because of stupidity, carelessness, drunkenness or cell phone texting, people are screwing up more and more these days when they hit the roadways. Although many of the accidents that are caught on film result in tragedy, we prefer to dwell on the funny incidents because humor is a lot more fun than a broken neck.
VW micro buses were all the rage back in the 1960's and '70's. They have been around since then, but they simply have not been all that popular. In the late 1960's they were a status symbol, a sign that you were a part of the hippie generation because many of the flower children drove across the USA in a VW micro bus.
They were usually painted in psychedelic colors and were major players in the automotive experiences of the hippie generation.
Volkswagen did not forget how popular their micro bus was back then, and a few years ago the company previewed a concept car based on that micro bus from the '60's and '70's.
If the above photo is any proof, the concept car made it all the way to the production line. Yes, it appears from this photo that the bus is back.
The design makes perfect sense in these days of high priced gasoline and is certainly a sign of the times. You can be sure this new VW only sips the petrol.
Almost everyone who sees this photo says it's cute. That means that women drivers would be the natural market for this vehicle. You could watch for more of them at a VW dealer near you. But the problem with that is that Volkswagen insists that they know nothing about the vehicle.
Even in Germany, the closest vehicle you can find similar to this car is the VW Fox, which is nowhere as cute as this car is. If you like it, call Volkswagen and tell them you want to buy one. If they built one, they must have built others that are out there...somewhere.
Now, for our first video--you know what kids do. They build a ramp that they can use to jump things with their skateboard, and naturally they leave it in the street in front of their house. Kids will be kids and they don't understand that bad things are likely to happen when something like this is left in the street.
The driver never noticed the skateboard ramp in the street and...well, watch and see for yourself:
Oh too bad! The car did not actually tip over. But, we all know that this scenario could have gone a lot worse.
Just imagine how the driver must have felt. He's tooling along, probably talking on his cell phone, maybe late for an appointment, and, if he is like most drivers, his mind is anywhere but concentrating on what's right in front of him. Suddenly his car rides up on only two wheels just like in a stunt car show. Wouldn't that be a shocker!

In the next vid we have an Evel Knievel wannabe let his buddy drive a car over his forearm because that's not really gonna hurt is it? Naah! Of course not!
Well, I cannot understand how that hurt the kid's arm. Let's see...drive a 3500 pound vehicle over a human arm? That shouldn't hurt, should it?
Wait till this kid gets to school to tell his buddies what he did. "You drove the car over your arm? No Way!"
"Yes, Way! Check out the video pal. See! And I'm still alive. Of course, my arm's in a cast, but so what! Now I'm an Internet hero."
Well, we all know that a broken arm is a small price to pay for immortality on the Internet. I can see the high school class year book now. "Mike Smith: Let Jonesey drive a car over his forearm. Most likely to become the next Evel Knievel."
_______
Okay! I feel guilty about the car in the first video not tipping over so I'm going to try to make it up to you...maybe.
In the next video what could possibly go wrong. The driver is entering a fenced location through a steel gate, and people enter premises like that through steel gates every day. What could go wrong?
What indeed! Watch!
Lady! Try to remember this next time. Keep the shiny side up!

We have saved the best for last, at least in our opinion. In our last video, a young woman attempts to fill her car with gas, which is usually a simple procedure. But today it isn't.
For those of you who are unfamiliar with Laurel and Hardy movies, this is the type of situation that Stan Laurel and Ollie Hardy used to get themselves into constantly. Most of their humor consisted of sight gags very similar to this one.
I have watched this video several times and I still laugh out loud every time I see it.
Did you notice at the very end of the clip she is still struggling with the hose trying to bring it back again to the wrong side of the car. If only she would turn her car around, all would be fine, but she doesn't seem to understand that.
Our video depicts a female bus driver who unwittingly sets out to experience an off road adventure, but she is not in an SUV. No, she is driving a bus, but it is still an adventure and it is definitely off road.
When I first watched the video of this woman bus driver, I suspected that it was fake. The bus must drive right over one or two cars parked in the parking lot for this video to be authentic, and that alone screamed of unlikely authenticity.
However, after watching it several times, I noticed that other vehicles which were in the first part of the video, when the camera was aimed where the bus was headed, were also in the second half of the video. Those vehicles were the same color, shape and size plus their location was the same too.
Sadly for the bus driver, this video appears to be real. But it probably no longer matters to her because it is unlikely that she is still working at that job. Would you keep her on after seeing her drive in that video?
TV news reporters are responsible for some hilarious bloopers that usually just end up on the editing room floor without anyone getting the opportunity to laugh at them. Well fortunately, we have managed to rescue a select few. All of our videos are short, so please do not worry about your time commitment.
You folks living in warm weather cities do not know how much fun you are missing by not getting any snow. In our first video the reporter is doing a story about the hidden dangers for kids when they hang around the snow plow. It is one of my favorites. Have a look:
I have watched that one several times and I still laugh out loud every time I watch it.

Remember comedian George Carlin's skit about the seven words you cannot say on TV? When it comes to reporters, there are many more taboo words than just seven. The reporter in this next video mistakenly lets out a major slip of the tongue, and he gets a bit flushed because of his error. Watch:
I certainly hope that Miss Nevada is able to get her tittle back. I think that it is a significant aspect to her charm. In fact I cannot imagine how she would look without it.
Don't you think that The Donald should give her tittle back? C'mon, Donald! Give that poor girl her tittle back. The nerve of some control freaks, wanting to keep the tittles all for themselves.
*****
You really have to feel sorry for the reporter in this next video. This poor girl never saw that train coming. As it says in the beginning of the video: No light fixtures were harmed during the making of this video. We don't want the electricians' union mad at us.
I could be wrong, but I smell a law suit here. As for the medical condition of the reporter, I only know that she did not die. Wish I could tell you more.
*****
We have room for just one more blooper. It has nothing to do with reporters, but it fits in here very well.
Somebody seems to have mistaken the house for the garage. This is happening all too frequently these days. What do you want to bet that the driver was texting someone at the time of the accident?
Maybe it was about their horoscope. It might have gone something like this: "BFF. HORSCOP SZ SMTHNG DRAMATC ROUND NX CRNR." Of course, they didn't know it was the Jones' doublewide.
No, Mabel. That garage remote cannot lift the Jones house off its foundation, although the Dodge almost can. Next time drive around the thing, will you pulleeze?
Imagine the poor Joneses sitting down to dinner. "Honey. Look who's coming to dinner. It's Mabel."
"Mabel, dear. So glad you dropped in. Maybe next time you could call first. George, I think the dog is trapped under the transmission...George! Where are you George? You're under the transmission too? Do you think AAA handles something like this, George?...George?!"
It is car surfing and it is huge on Youtube.com. Of course, it is not the brightest young men who are doing it. You might say kids with the classic redneck mentality are the ones who embrace it.
Yes sir! I am going to get myself a $35,000 vehicle, saddle myself with $600 monthly payments, and then I am going to foolishly crash that truck into a phone pole. This is so much fun! Why didn’t I think of this before?
Perhaps once this genius realizes the error of his ways, he will steal someone else’s vehicle to use for such pranks. However, that will not pay for his hospitalization expenses. Hopefully, he has good insurance.
Below is another genius car surfer reportedly driving at 70 mph.
Well, at least that one survived and didn’t even crash. Who knows how he braked the vehicle.
Here is one more, and this one is slightly safer, but still very dangerous. I guess boys will be boys.
Notice how the license plate is clearly visible in all of the videos. An enterprising police officer could quite easily go after these young men, if he wanted.
Ah, the road sign is an integral part of automotive society. It is generally taken for granted and is usually not the subject of further study--unless, of course, it contains a glaring error. In which case, we all will take enormous delight in wallowing amongst the verbal sludge cast about during the ensuing debate over the merits of our highways' road sign etiquette.
You may have to study these examples somewhat to notice the error of the sign maker's ways. But that merely adds to your pleasure once you discover the gaffe.
Encountering such mistakes is quite rare in this age of digital signage because the sign makers make far fewer errors thanks to their spell checking software.
Perhaps the second sign really has no error but is correctly directing the motorist to the location of the "Keap." If you want to go to the "Keap," turn right.
My guess is that you really cannot get there from here anyway. But the more nagging question is, do you really want to get there?
We will have to leave that debate to a different posting and limit our concern to the more political issue of: if you acquiesce to the sign's command and do keep right, does that brand you as a right wing conservative, or merely label you as prudent? And, is there a difference between the two? More sign humor...
A highway patrolman pulled a driver over to the side of the road to inform him that the driver had just won $1,000 in a government sponsored safety contest because the driver was buckled up and wearing his seat belt.
"What are you going to do with the prize money?" asked the officer.
The driver replied, "I guess I'll go to driving school to get my license."
At just that moment, his wife seated next to him in the passenger seat, piped up, "Officer, don't listen to a word he says. He's a smart aleck when he's drunk."
The commotion woke up a man sleeping in the back seat, who, upon seeing the cop, blurted out, "I knew we wouldn't get far in a stolen car."
Suddenly, there was a loud knock from the trunk of the vehicle and a voice asked, "Are we across the border yet?"
Sometimes grandparents and grandchildren can add so much to our lives. Here are some precious quotes from grandchildren:
A grandmother was telling her little granddaughter what her own childhood was like.
"In the winter, we used to skate outside on a pond. In the summer, we had a swing made from an automobile tire. My dad, who was your great grandfather, hung it from a tree in our back yard."
We also rode our own pony and picked wild raspberries in the woods in the late summer and fall."
The little granddaughter, wide-eyed in near astonishment, was taking all of this in. Finally she said to her grandmother, "Grandma, I sure wish I'd gotten to know you sooner!"
A five-year-old boy was attending his first funeral, which was for the burial of his maternal grandfather. It was a Catholic service in a church, and the priest was up in front of the congregation explaining what happens to one’s soul after death.
After taking it all in for awhile, the young grandson pulled on his father’s pants leg, pointed at the priest and asked, "Dad, is that God?"
