    World's littlest skyscraper.

    Quite the scam.

    https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/World's_littlest_skyscraper


    The Newby-McMahon Building is a four-story brick building located near the railroad depot in downtown Wichita Falls, built in 1906 by Augustus Newby (1855–1909),[10][11] a director of the Wichita Falls and Oklahoma City Railway Company.[12] The oil-rig construction firm of J.D. McMahon, a petroleum landman and structural engineer from Philadelphia, was one of seven tenants whose offices were based in the original Newby Building.[2][11]
    According to local legend,[13] when McMahon announced in 1919 that he would build a highrise annex to the Newby Building as a solution to the newly wealthy city's urgent need for office space, investors were eager to invest in the project.[9][14]McMahon collected $200,000 (US $2,800,000 in 2018) in investment capital from this group of naive investors, promising to construct a highrise office building across the street from the St. James Hotel.[4][5]
    The key to McMahon's swindle, and his successful defense in the ensuing lawsuit, was that he never verbally stated that the actual height of the building would be 480 feet (150 m).[3][15][16] The proposed skyscraper depicted in the blueprints that he distributed (and which were approved by the investors) was clearly labeled as consisting of four floors and 480 inches (12 m).[17

    The Quadro Tracker was a scam in 1993-96, that took a lot of police agencies for a lot of money.

    Reading that just sent me down a Wikipedia rabbit hole that ended up with me reading about some exorcism performed back in 1935.

    If you pick up a chicken. Gently bend it's neck and head down to its chest. Roll the chicken over on its back and sit it down.

    Ta-Dah hypnotized chicken. It'll lay there like it's dead until you set it back up right on its legs. It'll snap out of it and then go's on its merry way.

    Wow the children. Place your bets. Grab a chicken and try it.

    Apparently, the last year of the Ford flathead V8 was 1964ish, produced for French Simcas sold in Australia by Chrysler made in Brazil.
