There once was a salesman of doors,
Who went door to door on his tours.
He’d knock with a grin,
Say, “Your door’s wearing thin!”
Then sell you a new one like yours.

Before jet engines took over commercial aviation, the Rolls-Royce Dart helped bridge the gap between propellers and the jet age. This nearly 70-year-old demonstration model shows the technology that powered the Fairchild F-27 airliner. Sadly, it no longer works, but it’s still a pretty remarkable piece of aviation history.

So I found out today is boss appreciation day, and my coworkers bought me pizza and donuts! As a thank you, I made Evan hold this BAR for the entire video because the stand I’m having made is not finished yet. It weighs about as much as him so he was reasonably winded by the end of it.

At $6.00 a gallon for diesel🙄 this old steam locomotive is starting to look less like a relic of the past and more like a viable alternative. Pretty remarkable that we’ve reached a point where burning coal to move freight sounds like a reasonable conversation to have.

At the turn of the 20th century, American railroads were undergoing a revolution in engineering. This incredibly detailed salesman’s sample or demonstration model, made for American Car and Foundry, showcases the ingenious gravity-fed unloading systems that helped transform American freight transportation over a century ago.

Thomas Edison helped revolutionize office work with his early phonograph technology, paving the way for machines like the Dictaphone and Ediphone. These machines recorded speech onto wax cylinders, which could then be shaved so so smooth and reused.

Having to create content to help market our small business isn’t always sunshine and roses as you can see, but getting paid $500 to post this video makes it slightly more enjoyable

Originally designed for riot control. Now, similar devices are showing up at protests against lice.

There’s a pretty significant difference between a violent riot and exercising your First Amendment rights.

Apparently, that’s a distinction we’re still working on. 🇺🇸
