Volkswagen might be bringing 7 concepts to Geneva



Volkswagen plans on knocking off Toyota and General Motors to become the largest automaker in the world by 2018. That's a lofty goal; one that will need plenty of new and revised product to achieve. The German automaker has already taken a few steps to address its volume aspirations, including committing to $71 billion in product investment between 2011 and 2015.

Reports are that VW plans to kick off the product onslaught with as many as seven concepts next month at the Geneva Motor Show. The product sneak-peeks will span VW, Seat, Skoda, one or two Audis and two VW-badged concepts from the recently acquired Italdesign Giugiaro group. We'll likely see at least one vehicle (like the XL1) that promises obscene levels of efficiency, and we wouldn't be surprised to see VW's Roadster or the New Beetle, either.

We don't expect all of these concepts to make their way to production, but they will likely showcase the upcoming designs and technologies we can expect from Volkswagen.

Sorry I have not been on lately and some news about the new Sharon biography

Sorry I have not been on lately.  My girlfriend and I broke up and things have not been good lately.

Anyway, some news on Sharon... There is a new biography of her that was suppose to be released this month called Sharon Tate: The Life of a Victim.  It is now pushed back to October 22, 2011 and has been changed to Sharon Tate: The Biography by Ed Sanders who wrote The Family. 

I will try to be back soon but for awhile I will probably just do a once a week sort of thing. It is very hard to come up with something everyday, even though I enjoy searching for Sharon (don't get me wrong).  So for the time being as things are, I think it would be better for a weekly sort of thing.  Plus it would probably be easier for fans to keep up with so much on the internet these days.

Thanks, in advance, for your understanding and support.  Here are a few rare pix from ebay for the fans:


And here's a great rare photo of Carole Lombard one of Sharon's favorite actresses:
