Front Office Football Central - The thread for images so cool that they belong in this thread

Yeah, I'd agree that attitude is outdated. Firefox became a bloated piece of crap like two years ago, and I'd much rather run IE if I had to make the choice between only those two.

I only use something besides chrome when forced to or I need the functionality of one of firefox's extensions that there is no equivalent for in chrome.

And Firfox stopped becoming a bloated piece of crap like a year ago and now uses less memory than Chrome (I'm not joking).

I switched over to Chrome from Firefox about 2 years ago because Chrome at that time was quite a bit faster in video playback. However, over time I noticed that general navigating was getting pretty slow in Chrome and switched back to Firefox - Firefox is faster now IMO, and I don't see much of a difference in video loading/playback anymore.

I got so turned off by IE that I haven't really used it other than where I pretty much have to (MS specific sites), so I guess I haven't really given it a fair chance to win me back.

I'm so used to Firefox, I don't think I could switch. I think they would have to get rid of Firefox in order for me to try something else. :)

My elementary and middle school friend Tom Samui from Switzerland makes these custom sculptures out of recycled car and motorcycle parts. He's looking to expand his customer base and he's asked me to collaborate with him.

He and his team have been perfecting these sculptures over the last ten years. Once a month they go to a junk yard and cart away a truckload of old car and motorcycle parts. The pieces are cleaned and sorted by type; nothing is thrown away. All pieces are welded together, polished and varnished with special anti-rust lacquer. It takes about 400 hours of work to complete a large sculpture. The details and the quality of the work can be seen especially on the deer and the American Indian on the horse by clicking on the images (below).

Whether you have a drawing, a photo, a model, an idea; he can make almost any object in any size between 3 feet (1 meter) and 26 feet (8 meters). If the sculpture is smaller than 3 feet (1 meter) the minimum order is 20 pieces. The larger pieces can be taken apart into up to 10 pieces and can be transported to almost anywhere in the world. Production time for custom pieces is two to three months.

The only reason she isn't made-up is because nobody's looking at her face. If we had a photo like this of all the celebrities in the polls, they'd all be at 100%.

Pamukkale! I've been there! :)

And, mercifully, it's a lot better than when I was there. In the late 80s and early 90s, they were diverting water off of the cliffs for hotels and it was starting to turn grey.
