One Of My Very Own…

Physicists in the
Netherlands managed to entangle two electrons almost a mile apart—and they say
they’ve ruled out all of the loopholes which made earlier experiments
inconclusive. And while it all may sound pie-in-the-sky, scientists say that
the research could eventually lead to the development of ultra-fast “quantum
computers,” with potentially game-changing applications in medicine,
cryptography, and artificial intelligence.

April 25, 1983: Samantha
Smith invited to visit USSR. The 9-year-old girl was worried about a war, so she
wrote directly to Yuri Andropov to ask him about his intentions. In return, she
received a letter emphasizing the USSR's desire for peace, and an invitation to
visit the country. She spent 2 weeks there with her parents, and wrote a book
about her experiences when she returned home. Sadly, Samantha was killed in a
plane crash two years later.

Nobody comes back from war the same person who left.

Fake Rooftop Towns of WWII
Believe it or not, these
women are standing on top of a B-17 bomber factory in Seattle, Washington in
1941. These fake towns were designed by Hollywood set designers, made with
stage props, and "inhabited" by actors.
"So, what did you do during the war, grandma?"
"I lounged around on a roof in a bathing suit to fool any spies."

Lots of work, but oh so worth it.

We may pretend that we’re basically moral people who make
mistakes, but the whole of history proves otherwise.

I have a thing about stories.
If you have a good memory, there is a true story to teach just about any lesson. I will admit, I love telling stories.

Mesmerizing Video of Crowd
Control at a Comic Convention
Twice a year, Tokyo hosts
Comiket--one of the largest fandom conventions in the world. On December 29 of
this year, 150,000 people attended. On the 30th, 170,000 people showed up.
That's a lot of human bodies to move around. Managing crowd control safely on
this scale is a refined science that looks like an artform when properly
performed.
I couldn't take my eyes off that. Amazing.

Humans and their good intentions...

Parenting is like being a juggler except all the balls are
screaming.

This is how you sandbag.
I don't think it is the sandbags so much as the miles of sheet plastic it would take. The sandbags are just to hold the plastic in place.

Young men are always thinking...
If you don't know what that is, ask you son.

How people around the world spend their money.
Did you notice Russia's alcohol spending?

Do bisexuals experience sexual attraction twice a year or
once every two years?

A telescope, under

Shit like that fascinates me.

When my wife goes outside to investigate a strange noise,
how long do I have to wait before un-pausing the show we were watching?

(Customer fills out search card: 16 Chapels)
(me) Oh, you're after books on European Churches?
No, just books about the 16 Chapels.
16 Chapels?
Yea, you know the one with the big painting on the
ceiling.

"The DNA Repair Enzyme is a molecule, it's a complex
molecule, that travels like a little motor boat, up and down the DNA molecule.
It finds errors, snips them out, corrects them and puts the right thing back in
there - this is the ultimate wisdom of the body."

I personally think that if men could suck their own dick,
then there would be no war. We wouldn’t have time for such non-sense.

PLEASE READ THIS
It’s call civil-asset forfeiture and you really, really need to learn more about it. In a nutshell, the police can take…well, whatever the fuck they want…without criminal charge much less a guilty verdict. That means your house, car, cash…anything they want, and the local police split the take with the feds. In some places the profit from such practices covers the majority of the budget of the police department. So in 2015 a threshold was crossed; the value of property seized by your government now exceeds the value of property taken by NON-GOVERNMENTAL BURGLARS. This sickens me. And yet we (you and me) do nothing because “It’s somebody else’s problem.” Some think, “Well, those people MUST have done something wrong.” Well, probably most of them did, in fact break the law, but there are thousands of people who broke no law but still lost their cars, cash, houses and/or businesses. Please do a little research on this issue, then it will sicken you also.
