About Me

My photo
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.

One Of My Very Own

NEWSY BITS



This motherfucker is insane and I assume we all know that.
But that doesn't mean he is incapable of provoking us to do something awful.

The Cassini spacecraft orbiting Saturn 
plunged into the planet's atmosphere and burn up at 7:55am EDT Sep 14. We received it's final signal approximately 83 minutes later due to the time it took the signal to travel from Saturn to Earth. Cassini was launched almost 20 years ago and has been orbiting Saturn for the last 7 years taking pictures and studying the atmospheres of Saturn and its many moons.

What's up with this?

The homeless woman that my wife took under her wing now has teeth.

I want to be a reverse tooth fairy where I rob people and then scatter human teeth on their bed.

Remember when I used to have a section called "Women Who Look Like Sluts But Probably Aren't"? 
With that in mind I present "Woman Who Looks Like A Virgin But Probably Isn't." That, Gentle Reader, is a face that could light up a room.

There is safety in numbers, "TWENTY SIX" I yell at my burglar.



OBJECTS OF INTEREST

Sometimes columns were carved then stacked atop one another. But sometimes square blocks were stacked, then carved.
Once saw a very impressive chiseled outline of column on a patio outside the building and it was thought to have been used to keep all columns exactly the same size and shape.
I looked a long time to find a picture of that etched outline, but to no avail.

===
How creative.

That looks like fun.

Deep-Sea Fish with a Transparent Head and Tubular Eyes
Video taken by unmanned, undersea robots called remotely operated vehicles to study barreleye fish in the deep waters just offshore of Central California. At depths of 600 to 2,000 to 2,600 feet below the surface, the ROV cameras typically showed these fish hanging motionless in the water, their eyes glowing a vivid green in the ROV's bright lights. The ROV video also revealed a previously undescribed feature of these fish--its eyes are surrounded by a transparent, fluid-filled shield that covers the top of the fish's head.

Useless but seems to be a fun stress relief toy.

If you don't see her right away, you may want to stay out of southern woods until winter.

You might want to zoom in. I found this fascinating.

The guy who invented the umbrella was going to call it the "brella" but he hesitated.



WEEKEND HISTORIC IMAGES

British unexploded shell lands near some German soldiers, World War I.

Italian machine gun position, World War I, Monte Grappa

Now that is an interesting shot.

Astonishing image of the Vietnamese War from the winning side.

We didn't win in Korea. Nor in Vietnam, and now Afghanistan.

I've given up asking rhetorical questions. What's the point?



FUN WITH LANGUAGE


===

===
If you’re going to call something a firetruck, should its sole purpose really be to extinguish flames? That’s like a food truck driving around and disposing of people’s lunches. 

===
#3 actually makes sense if you read while pooping.

===
I still have the scar. We held a pocket knife blade between our thumb and forefinger so that only the very tip protruded. Then we went after each other. The first one to draw blood wins. I caught a slash to the inside of my upper arm as I threw my arms back to avoid a slash.

Trump is nothing like Hitler. There's no way he could write a book.


PEOPLE OF INTEREST


Drinking a bottle of Coca-Cola from 1956

These guys got a bottle of Coke from 1956, and drank it. There wasn't a lot of carbonation remaining, but they said it didn't taste too bad. The finish was a bit musty, though: "Have you ever licked an old couch?"
It even had a cork seal.
"Licked an old couch."

===
The trend of western backpackers busking or begging to fund their travels, dubbed “beg-packing” has been getting a lot of attention lately and not in a good way. Seen mainly in South East Asian countries such as Thailand, Singapore, Vietnam, and Malaysia, the practice has come under scrutiny of late, with detractors branding it 'lazy' and 'disgusting' on social media.

===
Forrest McQueen?

Watched a nothing movie, but it featured the guy on the right. He wears shirts like me.
I always buy extra-large because unlike most people, I plan to wear them for 25 or thirty years. And every wash they shrink just a little bit.

I notice things that most people do not. Do you see anything odd?
He's sitting on a reinforced stool unlike the others. Don't know why.

===
Remember when it took the Joker removing his surgical mask for Harvey Dent to recognize him?
