Adorable Car Chase of the Day: David Wheaton,  a morning drinker with two DWIs, thought a Smart Cabriolet might be just the thing to keep him off the radar of police.

It wasn’t.

So instead of pulling over for cops on a highway in Houston on Wednesday, he led them on a charming little car chase in which his speed topped out at 92 mph, the smart car’s limit.

Police followed Wheaton all the way to his driveway, where they charged him with evading arrest and his third DWI.

EASY STREET - 1917 one of his most celebrated Mutual Short films.

Charlie hold’s the baby for the woman next to him, he has the bottle upside down and he ends up thinking the baby has peed on him.

So This Exists of the Day: One of America’s favorite drink orders, the vodka soda, has been reimagined for the mass market:

Air (short for Alchohol Inspired Refresher) has “gone through a ‘patented process’ which leaves it ‘virtually odorless, colorless, and tasteless,’ like vodka, but being malt-based rather than distilled. The result is a carbonated, mildly alcoholic (only 4% ABV) water-soda-malt-vodka hybrid that is touted to be the ‘first’ of its kind.”

In berry, citrus, and club flavors, the drink retails for four for $6.99 or individually for $1.74. Distribution currently is limited to the West Coast, but Air’s maker has plans for expansion.

THE PAWNSHOP - 1916

Charlie getting fired by his boss for causing problems in the office especially with the book keeper (John Rand) by getting into fights. He works it out and gets his job back.

This is one of the funniest Mutuals for the sheer slapstick and Charlie dismantling a clock.
