It can take weeks to properly lay down a brick road by hand. Or, you could get the same result much faster by using a Tiger Stone road-printing machine. After workers load bricks into the hopper, the machine arranges them and lays them out in the desired pattern just like a printer rolls out paper.

In Japan, nature is given a little helping hand when it comes to its shape. There, you can find pears, apples, watermelons, and more in the shape of cubes, hearts, and even people. Or, if you prefer veggies, there are also heart- and star-shaped cucumbers. You can buy fruit molds to grow your own oddly shaped fruit or buy it pre-grown.

The world’s largest flower, the Rafflesia, doesn’t have leaves, roots, or a stem, but does boast enormous “petal-like lobes” and a spiky center. The giant plant can weigh more than 20 pounds and emits a pungent odor that smells like rotting meat or poop.

There are plenty of unusual creatures crawling along the ocean floor, but the Red-lipped batfish still manages to stand out thanks to its bright red mouth. Along with being oddly shaped and about the length of a burrito, this deepwater fish, which can be found near the Galapagos Islands, looks like it’s wearing a rather striking shade of lipstick.

There are plenty of beautiful white-sand beaches. But in China, there’s a beach that’s deep crimson. Panjin Red Beach is named due to the fact that it’s covered by red Sueda seaweed instead of sand. The seaweed begins to grow during April and May and is green throughout the summer; when autumn comes it turns a radiant shade of red.

I did a short brick paver driveway at our first country home.

6622 bricks (but who's counting?).

I had no fingerprints on my left hand by the time I was done.

The house is gone now but the driveway and garage are still there.

They are not for the same car (ie, no "The Judge" option on the paperwork, no hood tach on the paperwork, no power antenna on the car, no remote mirror on the car, etc).

Perhaps someone combined those images to highlight the fact that whitewalls were an available option.

I imagine "EXTS-Exhaust" are the exhaust extentions/tailpipe tips.
