Motor Trend Classic slips out of the grave for an online only issue, but didn't bother telling us subscribers that they shafted when they killed off the print issues.

good article and photo gallery of the cars in the Smithsonian

but what pisses me off in addition to the Motor Trend company killing the magazine off, http://justacarguy.blogspot.com/2014/01/motor-trend-classic-is-killed-off-again.html  that I really liked, is that not only did they kill it twice, but it's been about a year and they still haven't fixed their website so it doesn't lead people to think they still make it and you can subscribe to it.

Zach at Road and Track has a great article on the consequences of using Natl Parks during govt shutdowns

Zach broke into the park to prove a point about the idiocy of the govt shutdown, and wrote about the experience to remind people how truly special our public lands are.

He got 3 tickets (federal misdemeanors) and had to lawyer up and go to court. He got a plea deal, 40 hours community service, at the park. Lots of toilet cleaning... you know the ones, the nasty public ones with no ventilation, that so many people seem to destroy for fun

great art, on what appears to be the cover of Life Magazine, Jan 4th 1917. But Life magazine didn't have this on it's cover. So this is a mystery

so here are the covers of Life Magazine's 4 issues in January 1917. I don't know where I found the top image, the bottom is from http://2neat.com/magazine/product-category/life-magazine-1883-1936/life-1917/
