1972 Maserati Boomerang

Giorgetto Giugiaro's wedge-shaped prototype debuted as a static model at the 1971 Turin Motor Show, then returned as a fully functional car at the 1972 Geneva Motor Show.

Its angular styling would influence automotive design for decades to come.

Ooof. I really like Game Pass Ultimate, but I'm going to have to downgrade or cancel. It was widely considered to be a great deal, nobody will write that anymore.

WHAT is a nonogram?
As if you didn't already know! Listen to my awkward squeaky voiced explanation set to a Youtube approved copyright-licensed piece of muzak and featuring an anonymous stock actor acting all thinky. And a cute monkey.

We did a fair amount of work on the PC version of RESEARCH and DESTROY to support wider monitor formats. But I'm not sure it can go *this* wide. 😄
