Finger them: If you miss the TV presidential debate on Friday, you can re-enact it for yourself with these printable paper finger-puppets of U.S. presidential hopefuls Barack Obama and John McCain, along with their respective spouses, Michelle and Cindy. Just print, fold and presto, you too can promise change and/or a preemptive strike on Iran and entertain your cat in the process at folduscandidate.com.
Limoland: Before stretched and blinged-out Hummers with six wheels, two wet bars and enough LCDs to serve the needs of the NASA control room, “limousine” referred to something a little more refined, grown up, subtle and hippopotamus-like. Enter the Daimler DS420. Not the German Daimler, with its short-lived marriage to Chrysler, but the British Daimler, which supplied vehicles for high-class celebrities like the Queen Mother. This Web site, devoted to the venerable land-yacht, which despite its early-’50s lines, ended production in 1992, showcases Daimler owners from Britain to Thailand and provides everything you never wanted to know about the car that makes Rolls-Royce look small and déclassé at www.myds420.info.
