Netflix - The Best Offer - wonderful movie.




ANIMAL PICS


Everything I hate about zoos in one picture...

That's a good thing. But when you really think about it, wild chimps look depressed also.

A remarkable photo. I mean that. 
 Must be from Philidelphia.

Justice at last...

Not today, Mr. Lion. Not today...

What if we designed a machine that seemed capable of learning how to build the first of a series of machines whose function was to develop a successor more intelligent, more powerful than itself? Would we dare to power it up and test it?

What a wonderful movie.

 And let me repeat, if you have not seen Dale and Tucker, I laughed out loud.

If the camera adds 10 pounds, could NSA’s surveillance camera system be the cause of American obesity?

Police councelors...

 World War I soldier with and without his facial prosthetic.

By the way, see that wool uniform? The Americans had a uniform very similar to that and they were issued only one, for work and more formal affairs. Can you imagine how they smelled after a few weeks in the trenches?

If smoking is so bad, how come it can cure ham?

Another look at this great sculpture...
I think here is how I would do that. I would build a steel frame and weld on the cars. Then I would use spray Stryofoam everywhere I didn't want concrete. Then I would build the form, pour in the concrete, and after it cured and the form was removed, I would use heat to melt the Stryrofoam.
Anybody got a better idea?

Why this shape?
I do like the way the board on the far right was cut to the contour of the rock.

If I were on death row, for my last meal I would ask for raw oysters in a month with no R.

 Wouldn't even change my world view. I would be excited, yes, but then mostly just curious...and maybe fearful.

I'm not real sure what the allure is for tree houses, but this looks like a nice one.

So, you think its utilities come from the extension cord and the garden hose?

Based on genital structure, skirts should be worn by men and pants by women.

(I told my wife that. She said that vaginas had to breathe. I found that truly terrifying.)

 Théo Sanson set a new record by walking 1,640 feet across a slackline in the Utah desert. If it were left up to me, I would have him in therapy immediately.

I liked that very much.

Look very carefully...
His name is Ralphie and he has glasses very similar to mine. Best frames I've ever owned.

There is nothing better than a good girl who is only bad for you.

(Ya'll might want to write that down.)

 But for the luck of birth...

I’ve never actually seen a yellow duck.

The perfectly placed bench.

Raccoons are so clever.

If that didn't load fast enough, give it some time. You have got to see the end.

 I've shown this before, but I needs to be seen again.
 Women fleeing ISIS areas throwing their black abayas when reaching safety checkpoint. This is what freedom looks like. But her under-abaya fashion...I mean, damn, girl.


HAHAHAHAHAHAH!

I wonder if placenta is gluten free?

( Gentlemen, if you hear a woman ask that, run. Run just as fast as you can. )

 HAHAHHAAAHAHAHAH!

But it is fun trying to understand, isn't it? It beats following Gamecock football.

A young man I was talking to was telling me a story about another guy and to forgive the subjects error he said, "But he was...." I said, "Old?" And the kid said, "....Seasoned."
I bought him a beer. What a wonderful way to phrase it.

Breastfeeding…who doesn't like breast-feeding?

Does anyone else remember the ending of Grapes of Wrath?

Transgender people need to understand that with toleration/acceptance, also comes parody/being made fun of, just like everyone else.

I think it would have been funnier if instead of a grown man, there was a child driving.

Every day I have the Beach Boys song ‘I Get Around’ stuck in my head, but my brain changes it to ‘I Sit Around.’

In 1848, Joseph-Louis Lambot, the inventor of reinforced concrete, tried and successfully fashioned a small boat out of ferrocement. Before long, ferrocement barges were regularly plying the canals of Europe.

Who in their right mind would drive that fast on snow?
It is totally illogical. And not only that, you probably live around there and you KNOW about your stopping distance.

Yes, they have a locker room for such things...

I’m like a stay at home dad with no children.
