Yellow Bird, 1983 Jeep CJ7!

Video

“A yellow bird. With a yellow bill. Was sitting on. My window sill. I lured him in. With a piece of bread. And then I smashed his little head.”-U.S. Army marching cadence (of course the Basic Training unit I was in, back in 1982, used a different word for “little”)

In 1970 (Cold War), the first in the U.S. fully enclosed colligate sports arena opened; the ASISU (Associated Students of Idaho State University) Minidome.  In 1988 (Cold War), the name was changed to Holt Arena to honor the athletic director who pushed for the creation of the Minidome.  In January 2024 the name was changed, again, to ICCU (Idaho Central Credit Union) Dome, due to the arena’s recent refreshment being funded mostly by the financial institution.

Pine Ridge Mall-Center Court: Inaugural indoor Winter/New Year Car Show!

Image

Due to some instigation (possibly by a secret society of conspiratorial automotive enthusiasts), the Pine Ridge Mall in Chubbuck, Idaho, held its inaugural indoor Winter/New Year automobile show.  It was the weekend of January 13th & 14th, 2024.

One of the possible conspirators, practicing his Jedi Mind Tricks on some mall-goers!

I worked for the original owner of the Pine Ridge Mall during the few years before it was sold to the second owner, an evil global corporation based in Chicago, and we used to have car and RV displays during the warmer months of the year.  But, the evil second owner killed everything off!  The Pine Ridge Mall is on its third owner, supposedly a family company based in Saint Louis, Missouri, which specializes in bringing back depressed malls. The third owners have been working hard to slowly bring in new businesses, and they gave their blessings on this inaugural Winter/New Year indoor auto-show (with a possibility for more car shows!).

Poky Car Show, July 2023: Hot, Loud, Rude & Crude!

Video

The free Pocatello Car Club show started at 17 hours (5pm), 22JUL2023, it was 100+ Fahrenheit (38+ C)! I started recording video (I need a real video camera) and stills at about 17:30 hours, cars were still rolling in, eventually they would have at least 1-hundred cars show up.

No audio on this video due to loud copyrighted music being played:

The rollout for the Pocatello Car Club cruise started at 19 hours (7pm), hot vehicles in the hot 100+ Fahrenheit climate:

This was the quiet street to view car show cruisers, even though Grandma claimed “I can’t hear you!”:

July’s action on Main Street wasn’t as loud as it was in June:

It seemed most of the car-cruise action was taking place in the Center Street ‘tunnel’:
