Nice Badonkadonk and Bass, baby!
Nice Badonkadonk and Bass, baby!
02/01/2005 10:10 PM
« More proof that whatever your kink there is porn just for you.
This is the 2005 Women in
Waders calendar as seen in the fishing shop nearby. I'm sure
women go fly fishing dressed in a tiny bikini to pose with a
strategically placed bass all the time. "Because your buddy never
looked this good in waders..." Well, they've got a point. This year's
calendar is already sold out so you'd better pre-order 2006 so you
don't have to settle for Beauty and the Bass next year! I'm sad
they don't have a calendar of Furry Knuckles. :)»
Amusement of the day: the JL421
Badonkadonk Land Cruiser/Tank. I'm still not sure if it's real or
a joke but it looks like a lot more fun than the stupid Segway human
transporter. The added bonus being that 'badonkadonk' is a slang term
for big booty ala J Lo. It gives a new dimension to, "Dude, that's a
bigass tank!" The product description:
Product Description
The JL421 Badonkadonk is a completely unique, extremely rare land
vehicle and battle tank. Designed with versatility in mind, the Donk
can transport cargo or a crew of five internally or on the roof, and
can be piloted from within the armored shell or from an exposed
standing position through the hatch, thanks to special one-way steel
mesh armor windows and a control stick that pivots up and down to
allow piloting from the standing or seated positions. The interior is
fully carpeted and cozy, with accent lighting and room for up to five
people. A 400 watt premium sound system with PA is mounted to project
sound both into the cabin and outward from behind the windows.
The exterior is a steel shell with a rust patina, and features head
and tail lights, turn signal lights, trim lighting, underbody
lighting, fixed slats protecting the windows, and a unique
industrial-strength rubberized flexible skirt that shields and
protects the wheels to within an inch of the ground, while still
allowing for enough flex to give clearance over bumpy and uneven
terrain. Master power, ignition, all lighting, and stereo features are
controlled from a single switchboard to the left of the driver, again
accessible from either the seated or standing position. Standard drive
is an air-cooled, 6hp Tecumseh gasoline (unleaded only) engine, with
centrifugal clutch, giving the Donk a top speed of 40 mph.
This vehicle is not licensed for use on public roads, and is
intended as a recreational vehicle only. Badonkadonks are produced on
an order-by-order basis, with each one having it's own unique set of
features. With your order is included unlimited consultations with the
designer and manufacturer concerning all relevant options (a
representative from NAO will contact you shortly after your order).
Price does not include shipping and handling.
And, because I need to share the pain that will likely send me into
years of therapy, I present hasslecrotch with its hypnotic
powers. I blame ignatz.
