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.

MONDAY #3510

One Of My Very Own
Maybe the suited man should have said that.

This is what passes for normalcy right now in Venezuela.
That man is starving to death.





WOULD YOU LIKE TO CREATE A SECTION FOR FOLIO OLIO? GET A GROUP OF 5 - 10 RELATED IMAGES WITH OR WITHOUT CAPTIONS, NAME IT AND EMAIL IT TO ME. I WILL EVEN GIVE YOU CREDIT IF YOU WANT. CAN BE DISCOVERIES FROM THE INTERNET OR DOCUMENTATION OF SOMETHING THAT HAPPENED TO YOU...I DON'T CARE. IT CAN BE SILLY OR SERIOUS. IT CAN BE TRUE OR VERY, VERY FABRICATED. WANT TO SHOW THE WORLD YOUR CANOE TRIP DOWN THE AMAZON? I'M YOUR MAN. WANT TO SHOW OFF SOME PAINTINGS YOU DID? DO IT.

ALL I ASK IS TO NOT JUST FORWARD ITEM YOU SAW ON FACEBOOK. CHANCES ARE IF YOU SAW IT THERE, SO DID EVERYBODY ELSE.



OBSERVATIONS FROM PEOPLE
WHO THINK TOO MUCH - LIKE ME

My parents encouraged our interest in the performing arts by telling my sister and me to act like we had some sense when we were in public.

EXTRAORDINARY PEOPLE

Oh, my.

My wife did something similar...
TWC is Time Warner Cable
(remember Towanda from Fried Green Tomatoes?)
=10=

The Mangbetu are a people from the Democratic Republic of Congo. They are unique because of their distinct look - an elongated head.
And by the looks of him, he takes his golf very, very seriously.

Your parents telling you to believe bullshit doesn't make it not bullshit.
(think of your religious beliefs)

What a way to make a living.

It's called a stress test and he passed with flying colors.

weird ambiance, barely any nightlife. squirrels have laser eyes.

SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY

This should come in a kit for kids.

Of course, I'm from the old school.
=16=

That's one way to solve the problem. I think the blade is mounted on a moveable platform on the truck.

Cellular mitosis visible through a microscope.

Enterprise first test flight.

The massive dust storm on Mars has completely changed how the planet looks.

I've been fooled by this once before.

It's a great time to be alive.

They opened that black sarcophagus.
Experts said the three individuals in the tomb may have been soldiers in the time of the Pharaohs. The skull of one show cracks which point to an arrow injury. An alabaster bust, its features weathered beyond recognition, was also found with the sarcophagus.
I bet that stunk to high heaven.
=24=



They made a three-part film of my favorite book of all time: Guns, Germs, and Steel. It traces humanity's journey over the last 13,000 years from the dawn of farming at the end of the last Ice Age to the realities of life in the twenty-first century. 


=25=

Then you can tell them to stop being so short-sighted. Big science is worth doing. Apart from keeping packs of rogue scientists from roaming the streets experimenting on innocent people, it eventually leads to cool stuff.
=26=



LIMITLESS Energy

Airbus BelugaXL makes its maiden flight in Toulouse, France.

So powerful, yet rendered obsolete by airplanes with bombs.

My wife went to a spa once and they laid an entire cucumber on her eyes.

NATURE'S WONDERS

Fast instantly.
=31=

I think about the millions of times that happen all over the world and us humans don't know about it.

Eco-Friendly Insulation?

Taigan Zoo, Crimea. For some reason pack of lions attacked a young lioness. Owner of the zoo springs into action with a deadly weapon - his flipflop.

Why did they surge all at once?

Cop: I need you to identify the body.
Me: Ok I'm ready.
Cop: [pulls back sheet]
Me: Yes... yes. It's this bit below the neck.

CONSPIRACY THEORIES ARE FOR SUCKERS

Most of the time it is very easy to disprove bullshit. But many people LIKE believing bullshit.

I suspect the first guy to come up with the Chemtrails bullshit was one weird motherfucker.

Some bullshit has more credibility than others.
Area 51 or at least UFOs is such a case. Personally, I think that we are not alone in the universe. But claiming they periodically come visiting is a whole new horse of another color.

I assume most bullshit does not harm and can even be entertaining.

And...

But there is a couple of bullshit issues that do great harm.
And remember, the number of these folks is INCREASING! Even with almost universal internet ridicule.


Then there is this much more complicated issue.
I can only credit that with unwavering faith in one political affiliation. Yes, it will cost tons of money to deal with the problem and that is bad for business; ergo it must be bad and must be debunked at all cost.
