I thought that the Michelin tire company was headquartered in Michigan, USA and not France. In my defense, most of the US auto industry is based in Michigan, and they sound similar.

Also: I will never accept the "fact" that the Michelin Man is named "Bibendum" france-cool

Wow, those MACHINES are much more GIANT than the ones at The Western Museum of Mining and Industry

Lol I had a similar moment years ago at a demonstration of antique mining equipment and steam engines. It was mostly children, with a few clearly neurospicy adults. If you're ever in Colorado Springs, CO, check out the Mining Museum. They have lots of GIANT MACHINES AND STRUCTURES.

Maybe we should start researching a way to turn the poop from pigs' balls into biofuel

 

BTW if you're ever in Colorado Springs, CO check out the Rambler Ranch, they have a whole building full of Kelvinator fridges and stoves https://www.ramblerranch.com/

The “democratic” Republic of Korea was ruled by dictators for almost 30 years, until a coordinated movement of students, industrial workers, and newly unionized auto workers brought down the last autocrat in 1987.
