Miss Cellania's Links

The Avengers did pretty well on opening weekend ...smashing box office records like the Hulk smashes scenery. Some "unofficial" merchandise was out of this world in a different way.

68 Photos Of Badly Dressed Celebrities, Large Hats, And Drunk People At The Kentucky Derby. Which is the stuff we really tune in to the Derby for, anyway.

Foster Kitten Cam!

On April 29th, 1934, Ruth Warren was washing dishes and noticed her new 1934 Ford Fordor Deluxe Sedan was missing. A month later, they were informed the car was in Louisiana, with 160 bullet holes in it, after Texas lawmen shot and killed Bonnie Parker and Clyde Barrow. (via Everlasting Blort)

Now we have an alcohol breath spray that makes you instantly drunk for only a few seconds. Let us count the ways this could possibly go wrong.

My County Emergency Services has talked about converting buses to a number of similar uses.

Mass Casualty Ambulance
Rehab Facility for Fire or Search and Rescue Teams (climate controlled, food/drink, medical checks)

Private Companies who provide hand crews for wildland firefighting, at least here in Idaho, will frequently use converted school buses for transportation of their crews and equipment.
