Wow, that’s a beauty!

Apparently it’s in the ballpark of 6 weeks and $100,000. I hope someday I’m in a position to be concerned about the cost and time to have my plane painted.

Japanese fighter jet art FTW.

I think we’ve been in the same haunted house!

I must have a ghost infestation. My kids always swear it wasn’t them.

And someone monkeyed with the thermostat and WHY IS THIS WINDOW OPEN I’M NOT PAYING TO HEAT THE OUTDOORS!

Schmutz.

It’s Yiddish (?) and is a general term for unspecified dirt or filth. The fun part: once you have identified the filth, it is no longer schmutz.

My spouse and I picked it up from the Says You radio show years ago, and have used it ever since.

I wish I had a pencil-thin mustache
The “Boston Blackie” kind
A two-toned Ricky Ricardo jacket
And an autographed picture of Andy Devine

I don’t think it’s AI. Looks like the mail truck is simply parked next to an auto shop and caught a reflection in its window.

If this is AI generated then it’s remarkably good. The reflection is clearly legible even while mirrored:

Front End Specialist
Air Conditioning
Electrical Service
Radiator water pumps

And the red pickup’s badge says “Chevrolet Apache,” which is correct.
