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.

PONDERABLES


*Verification Requested

^^A1^^

*I couldn't have said it better myself.

^^A2^^

As the father of a rocket scientist, I couldn't agree more.

^^A3^^

That stupid bastard used a clip out of a video game!

Or so I'm told.

^^A4^^

Imagine being the person who found that out the hard way.

*The "Hard" way.

^^A5^^

I've seen several references to the depletion of insects' life. I don't understand all there is to know about it. Do any of you have a reliable site to help educate me?

^^A6^^

Interesting point.

^^A7^^

Think 2001: A Space Odyssey.

At least they got LA correct.

^^A8^^

^^A9^^

We are the product of a carefully orchestrated campaign to convince us that we are powerless.

^^A10^^

My wife once told me that "sex is better on holiday". Not the best postcard up ever received.

Life is like soccer - you can either use your head or use a good swift kick.

PEOPLE



This excavator operator in Munich, Germany is actually digging at a job site in South Korea.

Jesus, that's a long-ass excavator.

^^B1^^

^^B2^^

That works on me every time.

^^B3^^

Think of living on the steppes where hunting is extremely difficult. So what do you do? You train a hunter to help you.

^^B4^^

I wouldn't be able to walk for a week.

^^B5^^

Denmark plays the Netherlands in special uniforms. 

Fuck ruZZia

^^B6^^

If the servers made drinks the way that line cook made that sandwich...

Additionally, those looked like bone-in ribs. 

Who does that?

^^B7^^

And, yes, he watched the whole delightful show.

^^B8^^

How to get into a hammock.

^^B9^^

What could make me have this exact reaction?

Did you at least guess?! Please do before you proceed.

There is more wrong with that foot than I care to discuss.

Before the development of "gaydar," people had to determine gayness by the stars using a same-sextant.

And now in the interest of equal time here is a message from the National Institute of Pancakes. It reads and I quote, "Fuck waffles".

PLACES


And right in the middle of all that nature are cheap Walmart plastic chairs.

^^C1^^

I'm assuming it's manmade - although I'm batting only about 250 on my assumptions lately. If so I would have preferred a more organic shape.

^^C2^^

Reminds me of driving through Alaska. Once we ventured only 30 yards from our campsite and came face to face with an 8' caribou. We backed away slowly - as we had been instructed - and escaped without incident.

^^C3^^

"I can see my house from up here!"

^^C4^^

In my city, they took a huge multi-story mall and turned it into office space. The image above looks like a partition in such a mall.

^^C5^^

I've seen that at ground level.

^^C6^^

I've never believed in singular events. I am a multiverse guy and further believe each of those universes has come and gone an infinite number of times. This boils down to a key belief that we humans are not special.

^^C7^^

Can anybody offer me a plausible explanation for that?

^^C8^^

Am I the only one who has eaten half of a quarter pounder I found lodged in the couch cushions drunk at 3 AM?

People say they're "over the moon" when they're happy but it's a lie - the moon is one of those things you will never truly get over.

THINGS


The human mind has an innate ability to find faces with the slightest of clues. I consider myself a master at it.

^^D1^^

I've seen collections of photos of very clever ways people painted their garage doors. Although I think this one is Photoshop.

^^D2^^

Those ejected shells make a very unique sound that once heard can never be forgotten.

^^D3^^

Another classic example of "It ain't my job".

^^D4^^

Do you think that really tall people have special furniture like this?

^^D5^^

I've made some $2 packets to disperse at the beach.

They float.

The red sealant is the product they use to put rubber handles on tools.

^^D6^^

The truck in front of me had this window decal and I can figure out what it means.

The two main elements are from the South Carolina flag but the other elements remain an enigma.

^^D7^^

Sound advice, that.

^^D8^^

No need to Google that.

^^D9^^

I think this is the plane that takes one of those space tourists flights aloft.

But look! Does that mean it is going to be mothballed?

^^D10^^

How to know your Jordans just might be knock-offs...

^^D11^^

So...smoking is mandatory?

^^D12^^

I have a ton of those old card catalogs and my #1 advisor and heir is a wine collector. You do the math.

*BTW: The pistol is fake. It is there to distract any would-be assailant thus giving me the second or two it would take for me to squeeze off a shot from my Judge.

^^D13^^

Looks like geese/ducks flying in the tree and geese/duck whistles hanging from the moon.
Maybe the person is a hunter from SC.

No need to Google that.
^^D9^^

We have lots of those where I live about 50km from the world's cow egg capital.

^^A6^^ Insect extinction. https://www.sciencenews.org/article/insect-apocalypse-declines-biodiversity

It'll ask you to subscribe but you can skip that. But I invite you to consider subscribing for your grandson. This is a 100-year-old science publication written by scientists for laymen or anyone else interested in science and the implications of science on the issues facing our society. I've been reading it myself since around 1958 or so.

France, Finland, Faroe Islands, and maybe Falkland Islannds

Dear Thorhees, Without an item number nobody knows what you are referencing.

B7 That is not a sandwich. order ribs at a good smokehouse, you get ribs, bread, onion slices, pickles, and sauce how you like it, either on the side, none, drenched (not my choice), a little or a lot. The whole thing is either wrapped up in butcher paper or slid onto a tray for you to eat there.

D7 the things hanging from the moon look like duck calls. The duck silhouettes look like they are coming in to land.

Bravo Fiji Anon!

A9: Sorry to hear about your white guilt. Try some penance. Try 5 Our Fathers and 5 Holy Marys.

Ralph Henry said...

Dear A9 Anon, Are you telling me that denouncing white supremacists is a sign of white guilt?

D6: Not very planet friendly. Some poor fish can swallow it and die or a boater suck it up in his motor. SHAME!

Holding off on your pride month stuff? Memorial Day is just that, one day. But pride has a month, so I guess you have plenty of time.

A7 and A12 contradict each other. Bodily autonomy surely includes the right to sell your labour at a price you want to. Minimum wage interferes with that right.

Anonymous : The Faroe Islands are indeed a country

A9 - What's the context. Who or what hasn't denounced white supremacists ?
