I'm an artist, educator, militant anti-theist , and I write. I gamble on just about anything. And I like beer...but I love my wife. This blog contains observations from a funny old man who gets pissed off every once in a while.

THURSDAY #2209



CHRISTMAS THINGS

This guy works at a Santa hat factory in China...



  

Get it?


  







It rubs the lotion on its skin or else it gets the hose again...





Cardboard childrens craft projects to color for Christmas...
Rest In Peace?


WOMEN







MEN










One way to cheat the toll bridge camera...


This is a man selling mummies in Egypt, 1875.



 Step 1: Hide that book





When I read that Honey Boo Boo's parents are being offered $1 million to make a porn video...


"Even sticking to the higher plane of love, is it so very obvious that you can't love more than one person?
We seem to manage it with parental love (parents are reproached if they don't at least pretend to love all their children equally), love of books, of food, of wine (love of Chateau Margaux does not preclude love of a fine Hock, and we don't feel unfaithful to the red when we dally with the white), love of composers, poets, holiday beaches, friends … why is erotic love the one exception that everybody instantly acknowledges without even thinking about it?
Why can a woman not love two men at the same time, in their different ways? And why should the two – or their wives — begrudge her this?"
- Richard Dawkins, in the above passage from Banishing the Green-Eyed Monster.


ANIMALS



This is me at family reunions...

Bringing home the bacon?

Just helping a friend...


Military commanders order troops to kill buffalo to deny native Americans food...

This is so very sad...


THINGS

 That ad campaign is about jerking the wheel when driving on ice.

 What an underwater sinkhole will do...

Wow!

 An $8 million Monet painting after a man punched it...



 Any guesses as to what that Braille says?



This is one picture...give it a minute...



On bad days, bike lanes are completely deserted, as people stay at home or retreat to the conditioned environments of hermetically-sealed malls. It’s as if the 21-million-strong population of the Chinese capital is engaged in a mass city-wide rehearsal for life on an inhospitable planet. Only it’s not a rehearsal: the poisonous atmosphere is already here.


 This is exactly what the Cherokee Trail looks like today...
It has been tamped down a good four feet by millions of feet. It was the path that led the Cherokee from the mountains to the coast. 

In his day, this man was the Monet of his time...


 What a marvel of evolution...
