My friend Eisenwurst,

Did you say Chariot!? Good lord I've been nothing but thinking about those things since yesterday. As I was finishing up I thought a straight forward idea in a video edit yesterday for a hobby there was a connection to a very interesting chariot I'd never heard about and I think is cool and now starting to dive into. (don't want to try and say --- I think much better to show.) I'm taking a 2nd look and rethinking,. I'll put together the new stuff and post it here tomorrow. (Of course all comments are welcome even if the best one is off the wall or a joke. Appearances of seriousness are honest but the goal is to enjoy, maybe learn something or maybe just kill time and put off cleaning and reorganizing the garage just one more year. )

-Tim

Good on you Tim., looking forward to it.

Chariots are great. The movie "2000 years later" had a chariot in it. Love the film too but by golly it's virtually disappeared Superdude and Gregorius. A great pity it's becoming unavailable.

Russel Crowe, the actor, lives just down the street from me, and a couple of years ago he was having a garage sale and one of the items for sale was a chariot from the movie "Gladiator". I would've bought it but it was the wrong colour.

^I agree, the Chariot Race and its photography in Ben-Hur(1959) made a permanent impression on me.

These Chariots were an interesting twist and came out of nowhere yesterday after wondering what "Vimana" was, the name of the artists on this music track. Flying Chariots and Space Ships in your religion? I'll check that out. So far I've just collected images here and will be following up on it.

Vimāna - mythological flying palaces or chariots.

@ Tim.....Great videos, much talent.

I think "Vimana" is a rationalised term for conveyance of the Gods. Rationalised down to something the man in the street was familiar with i.e. a chariot.

I wouldn't mind a ride in one.

Thank you.

I could see that, showmanship and good marketing. If I find anything else I will let you know for sure.

Somehow I accidently opened Bing earlier on my computer that I was playing music on.

I answered B.
