Sea Lion Vehicle Makes All Your James Bond Fantasies Come True
Imagine tearing down the highway at 180 mph, then careening off a pier, having your ride transform into a watercraft and burning through the wet stuff at 60 mph.

Guy Gets Job By Putting His Face On Billboard

Xbox 360 Fails as Hiding Place For Cocaine
