Dom and Brian (Vin Diesel and Paul Walker) reach the finish line after racing through the streets of L.A. in the 2009 movie "Fast & Furious" (top). This scene takes place under the 6th street bridge.
The 2009 movie "Fast & Furious" used a dry lake in the Lucerne Valley for the scenes involving the evening drug run from Mexico as well as the chase scene involving the kidnapping of Braga to bring him back to the states.
This is the Soggy Dry Lake which is about 2 hrs NE of Los Angeles.
This shot itself was taken December 2005, on the way to Margret River from Perth in Australia. Probably somewhere near Rockingham. My children are really crazy about Mcdonald's. Among my family members we call it "M". This is because once we say Mcdonald's, the kids immediately react then say "Let's go!". My wife and I feel not every time.
Suddenly I start fasting. I haven't taken food for 24 hours. I am still OK. Tomorrow evening I will take little.

Life in Lancashire during the 1920s.
I know a man with a cauliflower ear who never did anything more violent than pull a Christmas cracker and even then, he did it at arms length. I saw him having a quiet pint in the local the other night when I overheard someone asking him how he came to acquire such a lovely 'cauly'. He paused momentarily as he raised the glass to his lips and said "Thrust"!
The stranger, thinking this was a new addition to the usual pub toasts of 'Cheers', 'Down the hatch', 'It's time tha' paid', and so on, raised his glass and replied 'Aye, and Thrust to thee too'! and emptied his glass. Our thick-eared friend spluttered as he unsuccessfully tried to laugh and drink a pint at the same time. I would have loved to have heard the outcome, but I had to leave in a hurry - I'm sure some of these traffic wardens have watches which are constantly fast.
You know what he meant didn't you? Of course you did; the enquirer must have been a real ignoramus not to know how the ear became flattened at 'Thrust'! It got a clog iron in it!
For the edification of those who like the man in the pub, do not know what 'Thrust' is (although they must be in a minority), it is merely another name for 'Jump-a-backs'.
In case it had another name as well, let me make it perfectly plain once and for all. It was a polular game in the school playground long before such establishments had school dinners and sex lessons.
Lads would form two teams of four, five, or six. One group would lean against the school wall, snake like, so as to form one long back onto which the others would in turn jump one on top of the other. The team that collapsed lost. As your opponent came hurtling on to your shoulders, it was wise to get your head tucked well down and protect your ears, by your elbows, otherwise you could get a brass-capped wooden-soled iron shod clog in your earhole. Our friend in the pub obviously forgot!!
Gets you thinking, doesn't it? What happened to games like 'Thrust!'; what about the others of that era? Gone and almost forgotten? Perhaps we adults in our wisdom have given them something better - like watching television, youth clubs, discotheques, or doing away with evening recreation altogether by substituting English for excersice and Theorems for 'Thrust' in a frantic effort to pass the G.C.E. examinations.
The long summer evenings and the short winter nights will come and go and I feel sorry for them. The kids will have lost hours of fun which can never be recaptured. I would be the first to agree that many of the games we played, if not criminally delinquent, did not subscribe to the peace and tranquility of unsuspecting house holders.
Take 'Caplatch' for example. Most doors had the old-fashioned latch - usually brass and highly polished. The first two priorities in house cleanliness were - 1. the doorstep and 2. the latch (in that order).
A street would be selected with long rows of latches. Starting at the first door, we would doff our caps, get to our marks, and then run like the clappers, 'batting' our caps on each latch, and one by one, men and women would open their doors to their unexpected visitors, only to see and hear pairs of clogs going like the bats of hell up the street to safety.
My! my! what some of those people shouted! They'd even make a TV play producer blush!!

This cat , our cat, Anton, is sleeping so tight that i could take his paw and shake it between the shots i took of him. He had a very hard day, eating, sleeping and looking out the window
Working on building my comfort with sketching in ink and familiarity with the tool kit I have built myself for that purpose.
Star of not one but two "Fast & Furious" films. Driven by actor Paul Walker in the first entry in the "Fast Saga," this car was used for multiple interior and exterior shots during the filming of 2001's "The Fast and the Furious" and 2003's "2 Fast 2 Furious," according to the extensive documentation that accompanies the car and a Certificate of Authenticity.
The car was built by Eddie Paul at The Shark Shop in El Segundo, CA, for the first movie and brought back and modified by the original builder for its role as "Slap Jack's Supra" in the sequel. The Supra would later be returned to original form, with the resplendent Lamborghini Diablo Candy Orange pearl paint and famed Troy Lee-designed "Nuclear Gladiator" motif along the side. To complete the look, the Supra features a Bomex front spoiler and side skirts, TRD-style hood, APR aluminum biplane rear wing, and 19-inch Dazz Motorsport Racing Hart M5 Tuner wheels. This example is a factory turbo car powered by the famed 2JZ-GTE 3.0-liter turbocharged inline-6 engine mated to a 4-speed automatic transmission.
This Supra is built for #mocaroundgang build challenge #mocaround67 titled #hollywoodrides hosted by @my_lego_garage
