S&S X Wedge. What HD could do, but won't do. The X Wedge has wedge shaped combustion chambers like many of the classic big block muscle cars, belt drive cam, straight push rod angles and 56 degree V Twin.

I freaking love this engine! Especially in Kiwi's Chieftain:

Ming says that the eggs are delicious and healthy and make you stay awake and sharp. Ming is looking forward to a project to export Urine eggs to other countries and make it 'A big thing'.
Okay, that's just ridiculous. Gag.

No kidding? I was once (in my old Beetle) behind a truck that hit a bridge. Not fun. I'm sure you keep your distance if a truck is in front of you. They ought to put up a padded bar or something 50 to 100 feet before that bridge. Like in parking garages. If a truck hits that bar they can stop before the bridge.

Top astronomers from the United Kingdom has said with in next 40 years we could be able to discover alien life in our universe.

Lord Martin Rees,the president of the Royal Society of London said that as soon as 2025 astrophysicist could be able to view images of planets out side of our solar system, and and potentially discover whether there is some form of life on them, the Daily Mail reported.

“Within 10 or 20 years we will be able to image other planets like the earth, orbiting other stars. That will be a really exciting subject to see if there is evidence for [extra-terrestrial] life or not,”

Yeah, well, I'm going to be asking some very direct questions of the Easter Bunny next year.

I don't mean to be culturally insensitive, but some cultures have flat-out ridiculous beliefs about the supernatural power of certain foods, animal parts and substances.

This is cool. In an airplane scrap yard, a 747 without its engines lifts during windstorm.
