Mazda MX-5 Superlight

Mazda has uncveiled a new MX-5 Superlight Concept. It is a 2193-pound track-oriented concept that features Eibach anti-roll bars in the front and rear and 17-inch wheels coated in 205/45 rubber.

“The dash is a custom fiberglass and plastic unit, with the stock MX-5′s gauges joining an engine-start button bringing to life the standard 1.8-liter four-cylinder (putting out 126 hp and 123 lb-ft of torque) and equipped with a Mazdaspeed cold-air intake and exhaust. But with the diet and minimal engine mods, the run from 0-to-60 MPH comes in at 8.9 seconds.”

Joke: George the Mailman

Joke: George the Mailman

It was George the mailman’s last day on the job after 35 years of carrying the mail through all kinds of weather to the same neighborhood.

When he arrived at the first house on his route, he was greeted by the whole family who roundly and soundly congratulated him and sent him on his way with a tidy gift envelope.

At the second house, they presented him with a box of fine cigars.

The folks at the third house handed him a selection of terrific fishing lures.

At the fourth house he was met at the door by a strikingly beautiful blonde woman in a revealing negligee. She took him by the hand, gently led him through the door and up the stairs to the bedroom where she blew his mind with the most passionate love he had ever experienced!
When he had enough, they went downstairs where she fixed him a giant breakfast: eggs, potatoes, ham, sausage, blueberry waffles, and fresh-squeezed orange juice. When he was truly satisfied she poured him a cup of steaming coffee. As she was pouring, he noticed a dollar bill sticking out from under the cup’s bottom edge.
“All of this was just too wonderful for words.”

He said, “But what’s the dollar for”?

“Well,” she said, “last night, I told my husband that today would be your last day, and that we should do something special for you. I asked him what to give you, and he said, “Screw him! Give him a dollar.” “The breakfast was my idea!!”
