TIL that the guy I used to work for, the one who fired my butt, the owner of the company I worked for nearly 34 years passed away. I have mixed feelings. I helped build his company and his race cars. He could be a very nice guy and then a total S.O.B. One thing I can say is that even in his late seventies he was fast! Watch the video. (He's driving the Datsun)

Saw this
and wondered if it was for real. Yes, yes it is. "Auto-brewery syndrome (ABS) (also known as gut fermentation syndrome, endogenous ethanol fermentation or drunkenness disease) is a condition characterized by the fermentation of ingested carbohydrates in the gastrointestinal tract of the body caused by bacteria or fungi. ABS is a rare medical condition in which intoxicating quantities of ethanol are produced through endogenous fermentation within the digestive system. The organisms responsible for ABS include various yeasts and bacteria, including Saccharomyces cerevisiae, S. boulardii, Candida albicans, C. tropicalis, C. krusei, C. glabrata, C. kefyr, C. parapsilosis, Torulopsis glabrata, Klebsiella pneumoniae, and Enterococcus faecium. These organisms use lactic acid fermentation or mixed acid fermentation pathways to produce an ethanol end product. The ethanol generated from these pathways is absorbed in the small intestine, causing an increase in blood alcohol concentrations that produce the effects of intoxication without the consumption of alcohol." Wiki

That's a man with serious skills. In the video I think they said it was the first one built from refrigerators. The Buick was built from flat sheet metal. Even so, WOW.

They were all over the place in San Antonio a few years back. Bleeccchhhh. One of the few things I didn't enjoy about the trip. Hiking the river walk and to the Missions was wonderful. The Alamo and the missions were incredibly moving experiences.
