Let’s go over to Dave’s house!

As my template identity crisis continues I thought I’d share some photos from last week when we went over to Dave’s house to watch him work on his cars.


This is The Bucket. Dave built this from spare parts from other cars. He actually registered it at the DMV. They were all, What’s the VIN? And he was all, I don’t know, I built the fucken thing out of scrap. Only in California will they give plates to a car that has its gas tank in the front seat.


Dave asked Jackson if he wanted to take a ride around the block in it. Jackson, whose self-preservation instincts are fully intact, said, Dave, you are out of your precious gear head if you think I’m going to put my ass in that rolling hand grenade.


The back of Dave’s DeSoto. Thing goes so fast your lungs will collapse from the g-force. Gave me a new banner, though. Thanks, Dave!

    I like the template identity crisis as well. I like the element of suprise – I never know what it will look like and there are so few suprises that it’s nice every once in a while.

    Glad Jackson didn’t go for a ride. Although kind of cool it also looks like it could be a death trap.

  11. Sharon says:

    That is the best banner EVER.

  12. Lymphopo says:

    So, um, is Dave married? Just asking. Not that I have the world’s hugest CRUSH or anything like that.

  13. Sue says:

    Ahhhh dat’s better. But YIKES that is one scary banner! I am so hiding the chickens. No wait, I don’t have any chickens.

  14. Dave is married! But he’s still cute.

  15. Maya says:

    That face? Enough to make anyone Fussy! I love it!

  16. Amanda says:

    My son would probably try to sell me to the gypsies for a ride in The Bucket. It does look pretty AWESOME!

  17. The new banner is so (and I say this wholeheartedly) HOT.

  18. GraceD says:

    Man, that car and banner is muy, muy voto. You are the homie blogger, chica.

  19. ceece says:

    what a great banner.
    Jackson is no fool, he runs from danger!

    Way to be.

  20. I am still checking in daily to see all the pretty colors. But that banner is by far my favorite iteration of this identity crisis.

  21. Susan @ YOW says:

    Cool…I love the new banner!

  22. chirky says:

    that image is just plain creepy.

    works great as a masthead, though!

  23. sari says:

    I like it, it has just the right amount of Loco Crazy in it.

    And it’s not purple and green! haha

  24. auntie wee says:

    Oh my gosh, i would totally wear this as a new Fussy.org shirt!!

  25. Jennarific says:

    Love this iteration of the banner! So completely cool that it came from a DeSoto. (Thanks Dad for making me a car freak!)

    I, too, would wear this as a t-shirt.

  26. puppytoes says:

    lovelovelove the new banner. (love the car, too… tho’ you couldn’t pay me to ride in it! well…maybe)

  27. Cave-Woman says:

    Perhaps, my favorite banner so far.

  28. Tracie P. says:

    is that a squiggly penis coming out of his eye?

  29. peevish says:
