FOLIO OLIO: THURSDAY #2310

One Of My Very Own...

Took my computer to repair shop today for touchpad malfunctions.

Manager said his Mac guy was on vacation and wouldn't be back until Monday. I said I would bring it back then. He said, "Why don't you just use a mouse?" Using a mouse had never even occurred to me. Not. Once.

ANKARA - Failure to finalize a framework agreement between Tehran and the six major powers aimed at curbing the country's sensitive nuclear work could profoundly destabilize the Islamic Republic, analysts and politicians say.

(yeah, right)

Amid Protests, Hawaii Governor Says Construction Of Thirty Meter Telescope Is Paused.

Think about that. You think your magic place was where the gods lived so science takes a back seat. Have we lost our fucking minds?
************

Einstein ring (gravitational lensing) of galaxy 12 billion light-years away. And all from an earth based telescope.

**************

Have you ever wondered what a lake looks like that is only 17% full? Well, Californians know all about it...

Interesting rock gathering don't you think. How do you suppose that happened?

This guy finds evidence that you watered your lawn on the wrong day...

Penalties for illegal watering in Sacramento range from a warning for the first violation to a $1000 fine for the fourth violation.
************

Crooked lottery winners who want to evade paying taxes on their winnings can buy or rent truckloads of used lottery tickets and show them to IRS auditors as "proof" that their gambling losses exceeding their winnings.

************

Who the hell cares what this guy has to say? Does the fact that you appear on a stupid (if not the stupidest) TV show make your opinion noteworthy?

Oh, and then people act shocked when he comes out with some ultra-conservative homophobic crap. LOOK AT HIM! What did you expect him to say?

"I'm not even that high."-my wife talking to the microwave

Saw this last night and had to document it...

Whether it's the best in town is debatable, but look at the price. Somebody had to decide to do that. There was probably some discussion and over every other price in the world, $4.54 won out. Wow.

I'm going to teach my grandson not to rat out his Big Diddy.

What a great idea...

But making it yourself? Yeah, right.

Minimalist Landscapes by Maroesjka Lavigne

Nice.

I watched the movie "Eva" and this was the star...

Her name is Claudia Vega, now 16 years old...

And you will see much more of her. She is a gifted actress.

That was made by painting two women. It took a while but I deduced the complexity.

Eerie similarity isn't it...

But that kind of crater on that moon must have come very close to blowing the whole thing to pieces.

Disney cartoonists just having fun...

It’s amazing how many people are allergic to gluten, peanuts, and facts.

WOMEN STICKING THINGS IN THEIR BODIES:

Is this next one double penetration?

Remember me stating the Grant Wood's American Gothic was the most fucked with painting? Well, this is probably a close second...

And then there are these fools...

Did you notice all the spacemen in the background...the spacemen that they believe started their religion...

But when you think about it, Scientology isn’t any more or less weird than any of the other fables. Most of my readers think that women were created from the rib of a man...for his amusement...because he was bored. Seriously. Are people not capable of embarrassment?

I like this. I just enlarged a small photo, of course, but look for this: The V of the shirt is matched in the V of the neck shadow, chin, nose shadow and eye/nose triangle...

Worst case scenario for the 'coin behind the ear' trick is finding a tumor there and being accused of dark magic.

Do not enter while drunk

I've found out why those women wear that get up...

She just stood in a crowded hallway and took a shit...

And nobody was the wiser.

Digital media studio Dawn of Man's very clever "Projection Napping" project involves projections of building-sized people snuggled up in New York City's architecture...and they are huge...

There's a Youtube clip about it that does it more justice than those screen shots.

In order to encourage more city folk to ride bikes, you need two things: safe bike lanes and places to park them.

The most attractive aspect of bike riding is that you don't have to find a place to park your car.

Photography...

I've noticed that many (most?) indoor murals in homes are behind the bed...

I like that one, by the way. Now put your hand over the top so that you can't tell it's a skyline...still nice. And, yes, appreciation for nonobjective art is just that easy.

I’ve had a handful of people tell me that now they look back and laugh at believing all the crap in the bible. Many still believe that Jesus was one cool, kind son of a bitch, but he was no son of god.

I’m not embarrassed if someone walks in on me masturbating cause it’s a natural, healthy bodily function. Unless they see WHAT I’m masturbating too, cause that shit is anything but natural or healthy.
