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.

DID YOU KNOW

A halibut that weighs more than my wife.
When I was in Alaska my fellow RV tourists would catch a fish that big and have no way to haul them away so they would dump of dozens of pounds on nonfishing fellow tourists. I took a slab as big as my thigh and after covering it with sliced lemons and oil I wrapped it with aluminum foil and cooked it over an open fire. It was without a doubt the most delicious meal I had ever eaten.

I posted an explanation of this a couple of years ago but this illustration makes it more clear.
For very thick ice, icebreakers ram the ice pack to ride up and break the ice under the weight of the ship.

That is 0.0000098401973865% light speed.

A gigantic fleet of floating rocks spewed up from an underwater volcano in the Pacific Ocean, floated across the waves for thousands of miles. Eventually, it made it all the way to Australia, then started on a new project: revitalizing the world's largest (and very threatened) coral reef system.

"I just was recently diagnosed as a type 1 diabetic after losing my job and health insurance due to covid and thought I would share this information after doing research... the costs can vary up or down a few hundred dollars or more depending on specifics.
Now that Americans aren't even allowed into our neighboring countries due to COVID more Americans are going to suffer. This has been happening for years, will it ever stop?"
Americans can't even drive over the border to get it because we are just too fucking stupid to wear masks...think about that.

These tentacle-like spurts of red lightning are called sprites. 
They're ultrafast bursts of electricity that crackle through the upper regions of the atmosphere – between 37 and 50 miles up in the sky – and move towards space.

This horse had his shoes nailed on backward due to Laminitis.
 I bet he makes very confusing hoofprints.

We used to spend a week at the beach every year. On the last day, we would take any leftover bread, chips, crackers, etc out on the deck and throw it up to the seagulls. It was great fun and looked very much like that.

 Why Nibbler the RCA spokesdog had to be a drawing...
I think that was called My Master's Voice.

The dog’s name was Nipper, the company is HMV (His Master’s Voice). A few years ago I was in Kingston upon Thames, UK and I found a plaque on the wall of a car park marking Nipper’s grave.

A8- Sprites are caused by the Electromagnetic energy from a lightning burst hitting the gasses that surround our planet. We don't usually see these gasses unless they're apparent as Aurorae, i,e Borealis (In the north) or Australis (In the south). Why they seem to be a fascinating mystery is beyond Me. Although I can't deny their Beauty! :)

D4- No person should be riding an animal for Sport or Transport. Horses get ridden the most and I HATE that fact. Get off that Horse and make sure you appreciate it's existence. Such gentle and Beautiful Animals. Mind you. I think Spiders are Beautiful and they ARE! Flies and mosquitos? Not so much! :)

D7- That's Jason "Badass" Barret. he used to be in my class at secondary school. He was always a Very popular person and he was and is Very intelligent. He just wasn't very good at Fighting. We used to jostle for the right to sit next to him cos he was such a Charismatic person. He's a Priest and has been for a LONG time. I wish him well but I can't agree with his not returning my copy of 'AKIRA' on Video I lent him in 1991! hahaha
