Believe it or not, I have way over 1,000 OOMVOs in the can ready to go. Until I pare it down to a manageable level I will share two a day. Enjoy.

PONDERABLES
A very successful Reverend Doctor high-end drug abuse counselor told me that he had always wanted to be a long-haul trucker. He said that nothing could be better than to have hours and hours alone to think.
My father was a highly-paid district manager for an international company but he repeatedly told us that he had always wanted to be a game warden.
I, on the other hand, have always wanted to do two things: teach and make art. And I fucking nailed it.

The genie is out of the bottle and there is no need to harp about putting it back in.
Boy, am I conflicted. I fear young children being taken advantage of by corporations but at the same time, I remember I went to work at twelve delivering newspapers, then worked for a grocery store at 15.
I don't think that's fair. Just because people aren't trying to kill you doesn't make your reactions less real.
Nipples are like curse words. Some long-dead people just declared them taboo and we, for whatever reason, still go along with their proclamation.
Calm down, little guy, those are male nipples that nobody gives a shit about.
Eventually, the nipple prohibition will go the way of the ankle, knee, and shoulder prohibitions of the recent past. But think about the cultures that prohibit showing female hair or even faces.
What really infuriates me - the father of two daughters - is that all these stupid mandates only control women.
Video showing what appears to be Russian soldiers beating one of their own.
In the 70s I met a man who was a combat officer in Vietnam. I asked him if he had post-traumatic stress issues and he said, "Hell, no! Nobody is shooting at me here!"
He told me a story of his squad walking into an ambush and he knew the only way to live was to charge through the enemy's weakest position. When he gave the order to charge two soldiers were hunkered down under a log with their hands over their heads. He pointed his gun at them and said, "You can get up and come with me and you might die. Or you can stay right there and I will shoot you where you lay." They joined the fight and they all survived.
Spielberg movies are just well-made John Williams music videos.
I find it amazing how 'exercise' and 'extra fries' sound so much alike. That can't just be a coincidence.
PLACES I WILL NEVER VISIT
I think the gate is only there to let you know that if you go any farther you will be shot.
Is there any real concern about what this does to animals like dolphins who use sound in their daily lives?
I post a lot of images like that but I have a thing about looking out the window while I'm going to sleep. While in the military I jacked my bed up so I could watch the comings and goings of the entire base.
Twisted train tracks on the fault line in Türkiye.
If you wonder why so many buildings crumbled,
just study that photo.
Longevity impresses the hell out of me.
So, to feel alive and challenge nature the field of conflict has to be preened?
That's goddamned awesome!
Looks like a human brain doesn't it?
HERE ARE A COUPLE OF PLACES I HAVE BEEN TO BUT WILL NEVER VISIT AGAIN
I strongly advise that you take a Winnebago tour of Alaska, and when you do go the second week in June.
There are very few tourists and most of the huge campgrounds had no other campers, meaning we could pick the best spot to park.
Also, there is minimum snow and the gigantic mosquitoes haven't come out yet.
I visited the panhandle of Florida when I was poor and one night won $600 in a poker game. My wife was so thrilled that she took me up in the dunes where no one on the beach could see us (very similar to those in the photo), stripped naked, and got down on her hands and knees.
While I was doing my part...
...a bus stopped on the highway directly above us and all of the passengers just stared down at us.
My wife began to look up and I gently pushed her head down so she would remain unaware that we were a spectacle.
BTW The sea oats growing on the dune shielded us from passing cars. We never anticipated a tall bus.
"There are two types of women."

Million-dollar idea: A printer that actually works when you want it to.
OBJECTS OF INTEREST
What else would you call that except toolmaking?
A real snowmobile.
Does anyone know what that tent thing is around the front door? I assume it is to make living in such a hellscape more bearable.
Did you know tarantulas can walk on water?
The hairs on their legs help trap air and allow them to stand on the surface of the water. It's difficult for them to move over water, so they don't tend to do this on purpose very often but they've been known to cross decent-sized bodies of water when they need to escape a predator.
Speaking of...
I watched the documentary "Good Night Oppy" and would strongly recommend it to everyone.
I found it strangely emotional.
I'm fascinated by interspecies friendships.
The roots followed the crack to find soil.
We've found the old retired guy...
I would not believe them.
"You can't tell me what to do."
- tourist probably
My wife is in a Facebook group called Buy Nothing where people list stuff they are giving away. The other day a lady came to our house to pick up two half-eaten granola bars that we didn't like.
The last time I was in a real restaurant I ordered soup and wondered how they knew which onions were French.
ODD HUMAN BEHAVIOR
Speaking of...
What substance do you suppose that is?
I bet they just put it in the box and sent it out.
Could they be headphones for music?
They pumped fuel up from the truck and food and other necessities were raised up with a hook and rope.
I bet they shit in a bucket and just threw it over the side.
They begin so young these days.
I once bought a rap Christmas carol tape at a gas station. Oh, Little Town Of Bethlehem was my favorite.
One Leg Driving
Tennis Tantrum
THIS GUY
The internet finds his behavior somewhat odd.

Puzzle time:
"How many horses with 3 legs?"
Looks to me like all of them have 3 legs, so 60.
Like, at least 3.
Now ask me how many have only 3 legs.
Puzzle. Time: there are 60 horses with three legs. There are horses who have only three legs, but the question asked how many horses have three legs.
^^B4^^
So many buildings crumbled because they ignored building regulation.
^^C10^^
Glass will be laminated so you'll be fine.
Puzzle Time
They all have three legs.
^^A4^^ Never mind the kids working in fast food joints. Aside from the occasional crazy person mad about their fries being too cold or too hot not much bad can happen to them. What about the ones working in meat-packing plants?
^^A6^^ The town I live in, in Colorado, lost a court case a couple of years ago and it is now legal for women to go topless in town. Sadly, I haven't seen anyone availing themselves of this opportunity. I mean, there's a university in town. Where are all the topless women hiding out?
^^D5^^ How long do you think he was sniffing his arm after that?
57 horses have three legs. And they all have huge erections, too. 3 horses have erections and two legs.
B-4
There is a video out that shows a man that has at the foundation of one of the buildings in Turkey that has collapsed.
He is able to crumble the foundation bricks with just his bare hand.
^^B4^^

Do you see buildings crumble like this every time Japan experiences a massive quake? The only time buildings get destroyed is when they get hit by a tsunami.
I began working at a fast food joint (Jack-in-the-Box) at age 14. I began with the soda machine, progressed to the fryers, then the grill, and finally the drive-thru window, all in one summer. I had to ride my bicycle to work. Great experience. Wonderful to have a little cash in my pocket.
