WEDNESDAY #1463




Baby's ultrasound....

How did the guy who discovered cow's milk explain to his friends how he found out?


One of my very own...

Like father, like son...

This is fucking outrageous...

My Papa can beat your Papa...

Life is not fair. Now, Gentle Reader, look at yourself in its near perfection and stop your fucking bitching...

What a fucking movie...

One of my very own...

I have no idea....

TRUE: There are two chemicals (?) detected in the blood of marijuana smokers. One is the active ingredient that makes you mellow, the other is produced by the body to break down that active ingredient. The active lasts a couple of hours. The non-active lasts a month.
Six states arrest you for DUI for the non-active chemical.
That means you could go to Colorado, smoke dope legally, go home and a month later you could get busted.
Not only that, but the detection of such a benign chemical results in a far worse penalty than being drunk on alcohol.
Further, the State Supreme Courts have uphold such lunacy. They admit that the people ARE NOT impaired, but it's the law anyway.
For all you people who like a Nanny State, you must be ecstatic.

Not to beat this dead horse into the ground, but let's revisit the Nanny State yet again.
Due to health problems years ago, I am very sensitive to loud music (true). I even have to put a finger in my ear if there is a siren nearby.
What if I walked into a bar with very loud music and for health reasons I leave in disgust. Afterwards I could:
A. Contact my representatives and have a law passed to outlaw loud music.
B. Frequent another less loud bar.
C. Realize that there may be other people like me and open my own less loud bar.

And that is how I feel about the government telling me how to operate my bar when it comes to smoking. 
My advice - take responsibility for yourself and don't always expect big government to make it all better.


 Translation: Wake up with erection and discover you shit in the bed.

Lincoln's inauguration on steps....

TRUE: Ukrainian scientists trained dolphins to attack and kill swimmers around their ships in port. These dolphins have escaped.



Syrians coordinating attack via cell phone...

I've never owned a sword.



How to know you probably won't be in the will...

This is Dr. Deborah Persaud. She cured that baby of HIV.
I would like to meet this woman.



I laughed out loud at the advertisement for the sound track of Walking Dead. All I could think about was the grunts and screams of the un-dead that you can enjoy while driving to Grandma's.



This man is thinking about an instructional letter to his wife....
Here are the fruits of his labors....

Seriously, but does this woman look fuckable?
Any woman can keep any man if she will just master one simple skill....
Speaking of....This is Miss Atomic Bomb, 1957 and that shit is TRUE! Albert hangs out with people like this. Now go back and look at Mrs. Einstein.

I feel the need to explain the deep-throat GIF above.
I usually don't do images like that, but, by god, I have NEVER seen anything like that. How, with my hours of research, have I NOT seen this camera angle in a porn flick?!?
Anyway, I was as impressed as I hope you are.


Yes, there are real motor proteins....

You know what would be cool to witness? A woman ventriloquist at her gynecologist's.


Welcome to the computer age....

How to know you live in the South...
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAH!!!!
(I'm sorry, but I was overwhelmed with that)

This dress was made on a 3D printer....a first...

This is a spam comment to this blog asking me if I get spam comments....



What could possibly go wrong....don't they even watch horror movies?!?
 Speaking of....
Imagine those fuckers forty feet tall!!!

NOTE: They now have concluded that the new bacteria is not new, nor is it from Lake Vostok. It was contamination.


Another abandoned building...

You have got to read about this motherfucker....
So, who is the alpha dog on this planet?

Jimi Hendrix, that's why!

Well, we are fucked now....

You magnificent bastards...

Never, ever try to cremate your deceased pet in your oven!!


Not sure how this was done...

"What the fuck is that?"

Whoever said the best things in life are free, obviously grows their own.


How long are we going to do this shit before
we get a Plan B?

Let's take the subway, you said. It will be fun, you said.
Common sense is a flower that doesn't grow in everyone's garden.

When you don't know what you're doing, 
it's best to do it quietly.


Welcome home, soldier. Welcome home....

Two of my favorite people then and now...

I'm not sure if this bad boy was shot during his charge...
Now go back and look at the bullets that missed him.

An extreme minority are sensitive to loud music. Alas, everybody is sensitive to carcinogenic smoke (even, for example, ignorant or impressionable non-smokers who would rather follow their smoking friends into a smokey bar than perhaps die of lung cancer).

If you want a vision of the future, imagine a boot stamping on a cigarette - forever.

THE HORROR!

I'm somewhat sympathetic to the "smoking in private institutions" argument, but given that it'll end up killing people who don't know any better, and given that the science is so compelling on the issue, sorry, you ain't gonna convince me (at least not with the arguments put thus far).

If I had to reproduce that bottle I'd carve or cast necessary molds and hammer the keys into it, welding as necessary. But I would be interested to know the actual process used. Whoever made it goes by "Moerkey" and you can browse and/or buy their sculptures here. Neat stuff.

Oh wait, this is the piece in question right here! And it says there are three available, so I'm inclined to believe the maker doesn't shape each one with no form. From that page:

"This bottle is made from over 60 individually curved keys, hand pieced together to form a polished metal bottle. It stands 29.5 cm tall, is 7.5 cm in diameter and weighs about 600 g."

The question is how they were "individually curved" — if it was just freehand, then shit! That's a lotta work.

If those people were just trophy hunting and if the lion wasn't a habitual (nuisance) man or game-killer, part of me hopes the pounced-upon individual died from a slashed artery or suchlike. Altogether I don't wish the guy dead, but... something tells me, if he didn't die, he came away from that not with shame or reflection but with an even bigger ego and no more (meaningful) respect for wildlife. "I'm gonna go shoot me a big ol' beast, kuz I've got me a gun and I'm a MAN!" Fuckin' nads-for-brains scum. I'm not against hunting for food or managing dangerous critters but killing things merely for sport really grinds my gears.

A nice post, this one, although one your GIFs was a touch uncharacteristically-hardcore (not makin' any moral judgement, though; porn's fine). I think I'll end up buying a Moerkey sculpture now, dammit, as I'm not quite broke enough as-is.

This blog is great and I always look forward to it (even if I know I'll probably end up rambling at you like a moron).

Not related to your post today, but your ongoing art project...are you familiar with 19c artist Victor Dubreuil? Saw a work of his at a museum today ("The Cross of Gold") and thought of you. If you are not familiar, you should check it out.

Regarding the marijuana testing...
As you mention, this holds true for some (not all) urine test assays. "Delta" 9-tetrahydrocannabinol is the active compound in marijuana. It is somewhat rapidly converted to 11-nor-delta-9-tetrahydrocannabinol-9-carboxylic acid (9-carboxy-THC), which is inactive and also has an extremely long elimination half life so it stays around for about 4-6 weeks. The only use of this test is to determine prior exposure. There is no link between a certain urine value and degree of impairment.
