VW Bug - oh yeah! It's been around!
Took this pic this morning. It's in an alley behind the owner's store (oh yes, tattoo place), b/c there's (ahem) unusual vehicles parked there from time to time. This VW Bug has certainly been cruising through . . . hmmmmmm . . . open fields? But what fun!

1. Those of us with a fondness for Bugs may want to rescue that one.

4. I love it!
I heard on the radio today somebody has developed a VW Beetle that runs on... well, poop -- I guess it's from biomass (now there's a useful euphemism for ya!). The working name for it is a dung beetle!! If bio diesel smells like french fries, what do you suppose he dung beetle smells like???

5. Dung Beetle!

Years ago, 70's maybe? there was someone in England who was running his vehicle on chicken poop.
