He did it and I'm proud that he's back.

Speaking of politics...

British stuff...

That is based on a British sitcom. The character's name is Hyacinth Bucket. She is pretentious and insists on it being pronounced 'Bouquet'. The sitcom was called 'Keeping Up Appearances'.

And...

NATURE'S WONDERS

Meat, wool, milk, and fertilizer for the farm. Truly a cash crop.
^^1^^

Beginners day at the driving range?
I think that's what is called golfball size hail.
^^2^^

Murmuration.

It acts like one giant organism...literally. When your body feels a threat to a tiny spot on one side it moves the entire organism away. Same above.
^^3^^

You have to admire the little motherfucker's spunk.
^^4^^

I imagine the horses are fleeing the cacophony of doom that thing must have made prior to its demise.
^^5^^

Did you know that scallops have eyes?

Even after seeing these images I had doubts, but I looked it up.

^^6^^

The Savannah is a hybrid cat breed - a cross between a serval and a domestic cat.

^^7^^

That seems to support the idea that they form horizontally then move to vertical.

^^8^^

Some people think that only roosters are allowed to start the day with screaming.

LET US PLAY GAMES MOSTLY WITH WORDS

All things Ralph...

^^10^^

^^11^^

Julius in the Coolius?
^^12^^

Get it?

Google self-driving car with chrome rims.
^^13^^

Hard pour corn vs. soft pour corn.
^^14^^

Slide tackle

You be the judge.

^^18^^

Are people born with photographic memories or do they take time to develop?

HUMAN ENDEAVORS

If you are wondering how those words all ended up in the same sentence, then you need to watch this old guy.

^^19^^

We are inundated with bad news, but there is joy out there if you just know where to look.

^^20^^

This guy is trying to duplicate the feat whereby the guy climbs up and over the bridge then drops back in the boat unscathed.

^^21^^

Any love for Tucker and Dale Vs Evil?

"Hello, officer... We've had a doozy of a day."
I found it a truly laugh out loud movie.
^^22^^

Can't go a whole day's post without embarrassing my wife.
^^23^^

Antonov An-225

I watched a fascinating documentary on that beast. It has its own built-in crane that moves from one end of the cargo hold to the other. It is large enough to hold 4 Apache helicopters.
^^24^^

Do you think the guy is deaf or just wearing earbuds or drunk out of his fucking mind?
^^25^^

When you find out she’s going commando at the restaurant.

^^26^^

When #trashtag was introduced, I knew it was a good idea and posted as such.

It encourages people to clean up the environment then post pictures of before and after and the crew.

And if you are going to get internet points I think this is a great way to get them.

It has now gone all over the world.

Great job my friends.

And the found treasures is just a bonus.

^^27^^

87 days of combat in Normandy - British units in orange, Canadian in red, American units in blue and Axis in black.

I found that mesmerizing. Did you notice how the Americans swung around to the south to cut off the German retreat?
I would love to see the whole European theater illustrated that way.
^^28^^

My wife once asked a bartender what's the closest drink he had to a chicken nugget.

ART AND ARTISTS

15,000-year-old bison sculpture found in Le Tuckering D'Audoubert Cave, France.

^^29^^

The 12th-century door at Wells Cathedral in Somerset, England.

I could examine that for hours.
^^30^^

On the Charles Bridge in Prague, this boy gets all the pets.

The patina is rubbed off by countless human contact.

But dogs are not the only ones to get tactile kudos.

^^31^^

A photograph by Gary Lo.

^^32^^

You may not consider this art, but as an artist I surely do.

^^33^^

"I beg your pardon?" is the British equivalent of "What the fuck did you just say to me you little bitch?"

SOCIAL CONCERNS

^^34^^

We are constantly being lied to, usually to separate us from some of our money.
^^35^^

I don't know if this is true or not, but it reads like a supermarket tabloid which is nothing but lies.
