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.

 One Of My Very Own

Let's try that again with one I doctored myself...

*I'm quite proud of that.

FOR AMUSEMENT ONLY



Before covid, the young people I knew would first ask how the new acquaintance felt about Trump, and supporters were rejected as being unworthy of further attention.

How did insulting mothers become a thing?

^^A5^^

My wife and I came upon WWII re-enactors in France. They had a mishmash of uniforms that included American Civil War hats.

And some were blue and some were gray.

^^A6^^


^^A7^^

For relaxation, weed is far superior to alcohol. You might want to give it a try - especially if you are a mean drunk.

My wife just says no to drugs only when the drugs suggest she save some until tomorrow.

^^A8^^

^^A9^^

I call it delusional groupthink.

^^A10^^

^^A11^^

^^A12^^

^^A13^^

Let's get real. If you have any sympathies for Donald Trump because the FBI retrieved classified documents from a closet in his home, the question begs to be asked: If Obama had done the EXACT same thing for the EXACT same reason would you feel sympathy for him? Do you have principles or are you just spewing political talking points? Remember, if Trump can do it then EVERY president should be able to do it.

AIN'T NATURE GRAND


Very, very interesting read.

^^B1^^

Crown Shyness has always fascinated me.

And I read that it is NOT caused by abrasion - one limb rubbing against a neighbor's.

Male Royal Flycatcher.

Show off.

Dolphins launching fish high in the air.

This hunting technique is called fish kicking or fish whacking. The dolphins may enjoy it, but they aren't just "playing". For the dolphins that learn this technique, it's often much easier, faster, and takes less time than chasing down a fish. A quick, precise flip of the tail usually stuns or kills the fish and the dolphin can then grab it easily. Like all the feeding techniques that bottlenose dolphins learn, it is passed down from mothers to their offspring. The males don't play any role in raising the calves.

Orcas do something similar to seals.

Atomic-resolution video of salt crystal forming

This is the first atomic-level image of a cuboid crystal forming from sodium and chlorine ions. In this field of view, we can measure the atoms in the thousands.

^^B6^^

It looks like a klan member riding a horse.

The basket star, "Gorgonocephalus eucnemis"

After attaching to a rock or other firm substrate, an adult basket star will spread its intricately branched arms into the water to catch tiny zooplankton (crustaceans, arrow worms), and sometimes fish larvae and jellies. live in deep-sea habitats or cold waters, though some basket stars can be seen at night in shallow tropical reefs. Most young basket stars live on a specific type of coral. In the wild, they may live up to 35 years.

Dog Control

Do dogs or any other animals give each other names?

^^B10^^

Dogs can be taught to do just about anything...

All because their lifelong goal is to please their master.

^^B11^^

Dogs are also a home entertainment center.

And...

^^B12^^

And that same cause-and-effect superstition leads this dog to do this...

The same reason it barks at the mailman - because every time he does the mailman soon disappears and is no longer a threat.

^^B13^^

And the goofy little bastards genuinely love us...

^^B14^^

Many parents were their children's first bully and most of them disguised it as "tough love".

Punjab Chief Minister drinks from the "holy river" to prove the water is safe. 

He has now been admitted to the hospital - TRUE!

He was trying to demonstrate the effectiveness of a 22-year project to clean up the river.

Bear In Peril

South Carolina is one of the few states that require insurance companies to replace the glass without any deductible. I assume it is included in my premium but I've taken advantage of it a half dozen times. And get this - it doesn't matter how the glass was damaged.

You never see zombies lying around being lazy, so maybe we should EMBRACE the possibility of a zombie apocalypse. I think it could turn some of us into real go-getters.

People moaning about the weather at least it’s not snowing. Imagine shoveling snow in this heat.

I wonder if it can do this...
