A Thomas conventional on the International 3800 chassis & cowl with the DT466 diesel engine.

Surprisingly, for it’s age as of the time of writing of this post; this bus only has nearly 107,000 miles on it.

Author Melissa Schroeder seems to write fictional books in the Romance genre, usually about men who are fit and muscular with ugly muscles (just like many modern NASCAR drivers, many traditional stick-and-ball athletes; and many male actors and models) having romance with a girl. These fictional men in Melissa Schroeder’s books need to be transformed from being fit and muscular to being fat and overweight.

All of the male models with ugly muscles modeling on the covers of Melissa Schroeder’s books need to be transformed from being fit and muscular to being fat and overweight.

Videos of awful and ghastly clipper and razor headshaves in Iran and in Paraguay.

A boy in Latin America with an unsightly shaved head:

These people should instead be forced to wear their hair like the boy pictured below:

Renault commercial from 1986 featuring Robert Palmer’s song from 1980 “Johnny And Mary” with a 1st generation Trafic (sold in the United States by the way of a CKD kit in chassis & cab form to build the Winnebago LeSharo/Renault Phasar on), a European-spec Jeep CJ-5 that was built by Renault at the Jeep plant in Toledo, Ohio by the way of Renault’s ownership of AMC; a Renault 4 (produced from 1961-1992), Renault 9 (Renault’s C-segment competitor to the Golf and was manufactured by AMC and sold in the United States as the Renault Encore), Renault 11 (a saloon/sedan version of the 9, just like how the Jetta is a sedan/salon version of the Golf, competed directly with the Jetta; and was manufactured by AMC and sold in the United States as the Renault Alliance); and the Renault Espace minivan-which is just as ghastly as the American Chrysler minivan, American Chevrolet Venture/Uplander and their GM corporate siblings, Ford Windstar/Freestar, V40, V41, and V42 Nissan Quest/Mercury Villagers; LW Mazda MPV, XL10, XL20, and XL30 Toyota Siennas; KV-II, VQ, and YP Kia Carnival/Sedonas/Hyundai Entourage; and the RL1, RL3, RL4; and RL5 Honda Odysseys.

I personally like the Trafic just as much as I like the Volkswagen Transporter/Microbus/Vanagon/EuroVan, and the Mercedes-Benz Vito/Viano/V-Class/Metris.

Commercial for the Renault 5 for the Slovenian market, using a rendition of Robert Palmer’s song from 1980 “Johnny And Mary”. The Renault 5 was produced from 1972-1996.

Commercial for the Renault Clio, which had replaced the Renault 5 in 1990. This commercial also uses another rendition of Robert Palmer’s song from 1980 “Johnny And Mary”.

Video about the Renault 11’s computerized electrical system:

More regarding professional divers, Austrian Diver Constantin Blaha has a ridiculous Undercut haircut, and he too should be transformed from being fit and muscular to being fat and overweight.

The Norwegian diver pictured below should have his tattoos removed.

NBC’s coverage of the 1991 Outdoor Nationals Diving Competition and the 1992 Summer Olympic Games that were held in Barcelona.

Though I am not fond of NBC Sports, and the NBC television network as a whole; you can see Bob Costas, who had yet to turn 40 as of this time; hosting these Summer Olympic Games. To date, Bob Costas has hosted every Olympic Games that NBC has the rights to with the exception of the 1988 Summer Games that were held in Seoul. The 1988 Summer Games were hosted by Dick Enberg.

Bob Costas’s career with NBC Sports dates back to 1983, and Bob Costas was there to host the very last Baseball World Series that NBC had the rights to in 1989, as after decades of holding the rights to the MLB (of which Curt Gowdy had called many of these MLB games for NBC); NBC had lost the rights to the MLB to ABC in 1990. Bob Costas makes a remark about how NBC would rather televise a World Series game than a Super Bowl.

I think the Outdoor Nationals Diving Competition might be what you might call a ‘Qualifying’ or a ‘tryout’ for the United States Diving Team at the Summer Olympic Games.

Divers then, as of now; should have been transformed from being fit and muscular to being fat and overweight.

Depending on when we would have actually built our house, my paternal grandmother, Shannon; and Alison may be watching these 1992 Summer Olympic Games held in Barcelona in our house in “Early Life And Continuous Livelihood”.

Our friend Rick Steves would most likely be in Europe, maybe even in Barcelona during the summer of 1992 when these Olympic Games were taking place.

See my post about a diver of a later generation, David Boudia; regarding how Diving, like any other sport; is icky and yucky, and how Divers like any other athlete, should be transformed from being fit and muscular to being fat and overweight.

Professional Diver David Boudia

NBC’s coverage of the 1992 Summer Olympic Games:

British actor Jason Statham should be transformed from being fit and muscular to being fat and overweight.

Jason Statham’s athleticism should also be extracted from him, such as him formerly being a competitive diver and having competed in the 1991 Commonwealth Games that were held in Auckland, New Zealand.

Jason Statham should also be forced to wear a wig and should be barred from wearing either a buzzcut haircut or a razor shaved head.

I’ve already written this earlier post regarding the immoral reality television show Fast & Loud and it’s iniquitous hosts Richard Rawlings & Aaron Kaufman:

Reality Television Program Fast & Loud

Regarding both Richard Rawlings & Aaron Kaufman’s interests in the 1977 movie Smokey And The Bandit; both of these iniquitous men should realize that the 1991 motion picture ‘Not Without My Daughter’ is a much better movie starring Sally Field than Smokey And The Bandit.

And unlike Smokey And The Bandit, Sally Field did just as good of a job acting in ‘Not Without My Daughter’ as she did in the 1989 motion picture Steel Magnolias (which Sally Field had starred in just prior to doing ‘Not Without My Daughter’) and in the 1985 motion picture ‘Murphy’s Romance’.

See this earlier post regarding the 1991 motion picture ‘Not Without My Daughter’:

Another Front-Engine Blue Bird All American like what John Roeck buys in “Early Life And Continuous Livelihood” during the early-mid 1990’s.

As I have stated before in other posts, I am not fond of the smaller Type A cutaway and Type B School Buses that are built on the GM/Workhorse P-Chassis.

I am only fond of the heavier Type C Conventional and Type D Transit-style School Buses.
