See this guy sitting in that crazy contraption? He’s been to every corner of the United States on that crazy vehicle, and that vehicle goes seventy miles per hour. At least that’s how the story goes.
The plate sitting on top of this vehicle is a solar panel. He has a radio and a TV in there, but there’s no word on lighting fixtures – though one can only assume he has some sort of a light source on the inside.
Be sure to check out the full story along with several more pictures at the source

Awwww.. Noone can blog quite like I can,
Writing posts about Segway and GM.
Alright, GM and Segway have joined forces and upgraded the famous and much maligned dorkmobile. This coalition is being called the Personal Urban Mobility and Accessibility Project, or PUMA. You could call it awkward 2.0, or if you wanted to name it like a movie sequel, we could call it Segway II: Geeks In Cages.
This incarnation is both less strange looking and much more useful. Plus, it has a rollcage. (Anti- wedgie bonus!) Not only does it reach a much higher top speed (a very useful for running away from bullies 35 MPH), but it also has a better range- 35 miles. So basically, you can drive at top speed for an hour on a single charge of the lithium batteries.
Sadly, if you want to have a demolition derby in these things, you’re going to have to disable the internal communications device that prevents it from colliding with other PUMAs. Why is it that safety features always take the fun out of things?

Hey, check out these nano ta-tas! They may not be big, but damn are they perky! They retail for about $2000 and get 60 MPG. Now that’s more than a mouthful. Since I’m a guy, and I posses leet photoshop skillz, I’ve gone ahead and made the tata nano into a side boob, just for you. Because tata means boob, and nano means small. Also because it actually looks like a big boob. All I can say is that I had fun researching this one.
