THE CAMERA

It's very important to put the camera where it needs to be.
^^A1^^

Interesting props are cool.

^^A2^^

Drama can be captured with the lighting.

Think about the centuries of wear required to do that.

^^A3^^

Moving pictures require many camera angles for the same scene. The nodding men may have been filmed hours after the guy got in the trunk.
^^A4^^

But no matter how great an actor/actress you are somebody has to write every word that comes out of your mouth.

^^A5^^

Now we can all try out our film making wings with the aid of a computer.

Does he look like a bitch?

And...

^^A6^^

Yes, yes you can.
^^A7^^

And...
Mr. Elon Tusk

Thank god for photoshop.
^^A8^^

I think acting would be a great job.

But even the best need a good writer.

The internet has a pretty strict rule about showing things twice.

I ignore that rule often.

^^A9^^

There are many people who make art just to post online.

And this guy.

Matchy-matchy, Joseph Ford

His art would make no sense without the photo documentation.
^^A10^^

May your children do impersonations of you that are both embarrassing and perfectly accurate.

PEOPLE WHO HAVEN'T A CLUE

An inauspicious beginning.
^^B1^^

My wife and I were at a wedding and as we filed outside we were handed an envelope. My wife opened hers and a butterfly fluttered up and away. The preacher screamed at her like a naughty child because the plan was to have everyone open them at the same time. I wanted to smack the guy for his rudeness.

^^B2^^

Americans are infamous for jumping on any and all bandwagons that come along. Think anti-vaxxers.
^^B3^^

In the military when you got into trouble they would send you to a defensive driving course that was held at night - on your own time. I got into a lot of trouble, but I sure learned how to drive better...and I mean that. My biggest takeaway was to keep my eyes moving at all times.
^^B4^^

The keyword in that is "Pocket." Don't get me started on women's fashion that is anything but utilitarian.
^^B5^^

NEVER pass out at a party.
^^B6^^

^^B7^^

I live in the largest city in my state. It is also the state capital, but the city is crisscrossed with railroad tracks. I have been delayed for 37 minutes and there was no way around it.
^^B8^^

I like to reassure my wife that even though I don't have big muscles she is always safe with me cause I'm a really loud screamer.

PEOPLE WHO KNOW WHAT THEY ARE DOING

Boston Dynamics, making future overlords very entertaining.

^^C2^^

A team from the University of Michigan recovers a Woolly Mammoth skull in a farmers field in Lima Township, Michigan.
^^C3^^

Lemon garlic lobster tails

Culinary arts are the only art form that you digest.

Cycloidal drive

A cycloidal drive or cycloidal speed reducer is a mechanism for reducing the speed of an input shaft by a certain ratio. Cycloidal speed reducers are capable of relatively high ratios in compact sizes. The input shaft drives an eccentric bearing that in turn drives the cycloidal disc in an eccentric, cycloidal motion.
