Spied this cool bus last night.  Don't know how to post images but hopefully the links will work.

Hey Gakenstein. Cool bus indeed! I'd sell my car if I knew I could run around in this all day. Mass transit would finally be appealing to me!  :)

Here is how you insert a pic BTW. Click on "insert pic" icon, then paste the image url between the img brackets. Remember .. in case of Flickr, it must be the image url and not the photostream properties url.

Something like this

I fixed your pics.  You have to use the photo URL, not the page the photo is on.  In order to get that from Flickr, right click on the photo and select "Properties".  Then it will show you the URL of the photo.  Flickr also adds a few characters after that so to make it work here, the .jpg should be the end of the address, just delete anything after that.

hahaha, You've been double-fixed!  ;D

Looks like Bobby beat me to it! Damn, we're Johnny on the spot here!  :)

Best..

That's a really cool bus graphic, but it's an ad to keep the monsters OUT of your computer, and my computer works just fine with monsters in it.  :)

Bobby .. I've been meaning to ask you -  what monster toy did you bastardize to create that holly jolly avatar of yours?

Thanks for the help guys!  I'm a computer dumbass....

I couldn't believe my bloodshot eyes when I spotted that monstrous mode of transportation rolling down the street.
I'll have to get a closer look to see if there's a Universal copyright anywhere on it.  Drac and Wolfie are pretty generic, but that is definitely a Karloffstein monster.  Paging Sarah Karloff!

It goes right by my shop in downtown Dover, Delaware.  Maybe I'll hop a ride on it this week.  Probably only makes stops at cemetaries and funeral homes.  Wonder if the Creature from the Black Lagoon is made to sit in the back of the bus???

A friend made that and sent it to me... last year?  Maybe year before?  Can't recall...  anyway, someone identified the head once and I don't remember that either, but I think it was a candy container head or something.

Gary, I would love to hop on that bus with you. We could ride around town all day getting caught up on monster matters. Wish I could be there to do this.

Yeah, your right Dan. I guess the only thing that's missing is the diesel exhaust fumes.  :)

That's a nice traveling billboard for classic monsters.  Whoever designed it must be a fan.
