Posted in disgust at the POS waste of oxygen that shoots at Amish, shoots at horses, and uses a bullet to be cruel to harmless people and creatures. I'm cool with hunting and fishing to eat, or catch and release fishing, but all the way furious at cruelty to animals

Carl Casper, beyond his hot rods and customs, was also an expert carriage builder... he won the trophy so many times they named it after him... really

and since the bulk of todays posts have become Rolls Royce, I stumbled on a cross over... it's one of the Maharajah of Mysore  1911 Silver Ghost Rolls Royce

 realizing that in todays dollar value equivalent, he would be worth around 40 billion dollars, I bet he had a lot of great cars.

four young Amish adults consumed large amounts of alcohol and then crashed their horse drawn buggy into the side of a police car

Police arrived at the scene of a party that was reported by local residents which point the Amish teenagers attempted to flee the scene, smashing one buggy into the patrol car.

The crash occurred in Chautauqua County, New York on Sunday night at 7:15pm in the rural town of Sherman.

Deputies say the teens were parked along a country road and were drinking inside of several Amish buggies when they arrived on the scene.

While attempting to flee the scene of the party one of the Amish buggy’s quickly switched lanes and smashed into the police car, causing the buggy to flip onto its side while at the same time causing minor injury to one of the passengers.

While not the fastest vehicles on the road police officers say the accident allowed several other amish buggies to flee the scene of the crime.
