Jokes and More True Stories of Some of the Dumbest Crooks on Earth: Kentucky (where else?): Two men tried to pull the front off a cash machine by running a chain from the machine to the bumper of their pickup truck. Instead of pulling the front panel off the machine, though, they pulled the bumper off their truck. Scared, they left the scene and drove home. With the chain still attached to the machine. With their bumper still attached to the chain. With their vehicle's license plate still attached to the bumper. (Editor's Note 1: And they wonder why we call them "Yahoos" ...)

South Jersey Car Shows & Cruises Beer CraZy by Contributing Writer, Nick Gaudio Yesterday I picked up Marionberry Hibiscus Gose brewed by Widmer Brothers Brewing in Portland, Oregon. This beer is another member of their 924 Series, which have been mostly pretty strong. The label says this was brewed with coriander, marionberries and hibiscus. "Perfecting the Art of Tart" also leads me to believe this will have some pucker power. Bottled May 8, 2012. Dark pink to maroon color, with a hint of neon in there. Loads of banana accompany some berry and wheat scents. This smells a little like Yankee Candle Shop, pretty nice. Again with the rich banana flavors opening things up, but that is quickly answered by some tart berry. The coriander is also noticeable right from the start. Another flavor starts out slow but grows and grows. Tastes like vegetation and earth, perhaps flower petals, so I guess that's the hibiscus they added. It's a little weird and as the flavor builds, it becomes a little undesirable. Wheaty thick texture; carbonation could have been a little bit better. Just an OK beer though there are points for being interesting.

2012 Porsche 911 Named Motor Trends Best Drivers Car Author: George Chopek, ECR Staff Writer See More at ExoticCarResource.com ATLANTA, Aug. 23. 2012 /PRNewswire/ – Motor Trend has chosen the Porsche 911 Carrera S as its Best Driver’s Car for 2012. The Best Driver’s Car honor is decided after a yearly competition among the best new or improved performance cars available in the U.S. market. “‘Best Driver’s Car’ is the highest honor Motor Trend gives to a performance vehicle, which is the main reason it is so coveted across the industry,” said Ed Loh, Editor-in-Chief of Motor Trend. “Congratulations to Porsche and its 911 Carrera S for beating out such a diverse, yet uniformly excellent field this year.” “Being named ‘Motor Trend Best Driver’s Car’ is a testament to the work of the men and women in Weissach and Zuffenhausen who are so passionate about designing and building our sports cars,” said Detlev von Platen, President and CEO of Porsche Cars North America. “This accomplishment shows that the 911 still has the same magic it’s had for nearly 50 years, as it continues to be both a great car to drive everyday on the road and on the track.” Motor Trend editors choose the car that most makes them want to head out to their favorite road and drive. To achieve this, each contender is run through a battery of dynamic tests, a 500-mile road trip, hard canyon driving on a closed course and finally, evaluation at the hands of professional driver Randy Pobst at Mazda Raceway Laguna Seca. All of that information is then distilled down by seven judges, and after careful consideration, a winner is declared.
ASTON MARTIN “POWER BEAUTY SOUL” TOUR VISITS 27 ASTON MARTIN DEALERS IN NINE COUNTRIES
The test aims to go beyond the numbers, uncovering the one vehicle that offers enthusiasts the most engaging and rewarding driving experience possible.
Frankfurt am Main, 21 August 2012 - Three exciting new highlights of the Aston Martin model range are embarking on an ambitious European tour. In an unprecedented combination, the British builder of luxury sports cars presents for the first time together the Aston Martin Vanquish, V12 Zagato and the V12 Vantage Roadster at selected locations across Europe. Under the headline of “Power, Beauty and Soul” the exceptional sports car trio stops at 27 Aston Martin dealerships in nine countries, where the cars will be exhibited in showrooms or at other selected locations as stars of exclusive customer events. “The feedback from customers on this campaign has been overwhelming, as this will be the first opportunity for them to see these three sports cars together,” says Jeffrey L. Scott, Managing Director of Aston Martin Lagonda of Europe. “Each of the three models is very special in its own way. Now, all three superb sports cars on show together at the same time perfectly represent our brand’s core values of ‘Power, Beauty and Soul’. This tour promises to be a true highlight for us and our dealers across Europe.” Leading this spectacular trio is the Aston Martin Vanquish, the new Super GT, which is set to enter the market in Europe in the autumn. The Vanquish is the new flagship of the Aston Martin sports car range. With its 6.0-litre V12 engine, that brings 573 PS at 6,750 rpm, it will be the most powerful production car of the British luxury manufacturer. In addition to its performance the Vanquish also impresses with its breath-taking design, which has already been honoured with awards, as well as a new intelligent control centre console and noticeably more generous interior space. The first customer cars will be delivered in Europe towards the end of 2012. Sharing the limelight will be the Aston Martin V12 Zagato, designed to celebrate the 50th anniversary of the partnership between Aston Martin and the famous Italian design house Zagato. At its world premiere at the Concorso D’Eleganza of Villa D’Este in May 2011, the V12 Zagato won the Design Award in the category Concept Cars and Prototypes and, just a few weeks later, it competed successfully in its first endurance test at the 24-hour race at the Nurburgring. This summer, production of the series begins at Aston Martin’s headquarters in Gaydon. Limited to no more than 101 vehicles – the time-consuming handcraftsmanship used to create the new car is similar to that used in the production of the now sold-out One-77 supercar. The first customer deliveries of the V12 Zagato, priced at £ 330,000 (plus local taxes), begin this autumn. Completing the trio of star sports cars touring Europe is the V12 Vantage Roadster, the convertible version of the most potent Vantage that has been eagerly awaited by customers. With its 6.0-litre V12 engine, intelligently packaged into the Vantage Roadster’s compact chassis, the V12 Vantage Roadster generates 517 PS at 6,500 rpm and 570 Nm of torque at 5,750 rpm and combines the breathtaking sports car feeling of the V12 Vantage with the maximum fun that a roadster can offer.
