 One Of My Very Own

This captivating 2008 performance of "Il Silenzio" features a 13-year-old Dutch girl, Melissa Venema, backed by André Rieu and the Royal Orchestra of the Netherlands.

Listen to it while you scroll. It's a moving piece.

FOOD FOR THOUGHT


^^A1^^

And somehow their minds were so twisted that they saw attempting to kill federal police officers as a noble act. 

^^A3^^

It was revenge!

*I lost the source.

^^A4^^

I'm definitely an Absurdist.

^^A5^^

In middle school, the smartest kid in the room was called on by the teacher to come to the blackboard and solve a problem. He refused. Only after the threat of severe punishment did he stand - revealing an obvious boner. The teacher went nuts and berated him all the way out the door en route to the principal's office. I decided on that day not to be that kind of teacher.

^^A6^^

How clever.

^^A7^^

I haven't a clue yet I still smiled.

^^A8^^

I am interested to know how much maintenance solar panels require, plus their projected lifespan before they have to be replaced.

^^A9^^

Now consider this carefully.

Those people have bought far too much vehicle for their needs.

^^A10^^

Beer Consumption

We are all fucked up. Some of us just don't lie about it.

PEOPLE


Maybe it is his first rodeo.

^^B1^^

^^B2^^

^^B3^^

Lesbian sex is so complicated.

^^B4^^

^^B5^^

Speaking of...

^^B6^^

Just like Richard Petty. They say when he wants to walk around unnoticed he just takes off his hat and sunglasses.

^^B7^^

Alina Baikova (Аліна Байкова) a Ukrainian fashion model and businesswoman came to the Cannes Film Festival wearing a Fuck you Putin T-shirt.

Security was not amused.

^^B8^^

Check out the tan lines...

^^B9^^

^^B10^^

Camerapersons - I find this fascinating.

^^B11^^

Remember the Healing Monk?

^^B12^^

Pranking Grandma - Listen carefully.

If that lady's language offends you, then you WOULD NOT like to spend time with my wife.

PLACES


Artists create beautiful shade for the Malaga, Spain streets.

How very wonderful.

^^C1^^

Our favorite wing restaurant has no cash register and takes no phone orders. All orders are made through their app. We love their wings but hate their business model.

^^C2^^

A restaurant in a gay bar...

^^C3^^

As a student of architecture, I love thinking of the decisions going into each building.

My best friend in Germany got married in a church very similar to that. Forget heating and air conditioning - it didn't even have glass in the windows. You can get away with that when your building is made of granite.

^^C4^^

Can you imagine occupying the very top floor?

^^C5^^

The top floors remind me of my Scrap Box Too.

^^C6^^

I wonder if each protrusion creates a balcony beneath it. I would hope so.

^^C7^^

Do you have to sign a release from legal action if you fall?

^^C8^^

We give ours tens of millions of dollars in bonuses.

^^C9^^

Jury duty would be a lot more popular if they gave everyone a turn with the gavel.

Is it weird how saying sentences backward creates backward sentences saying how weird it is?

THINGS


I have an idea for an app: for a fee, you get to pick the music for the joint you are in.

---

I used to get a new box of those every Christmas.

---

I still like that stuff. I like to use so much of it that the spoon stands up in the glass.

---

We used to send those soaring on the tip of an arrow.

^^D 1-4^^

I have a thing for stairs and find all these worth appraisals.

---

I've been on ladders that were damn near straight up toward the top.

---

---

---

Look very carefully...

Problem solved.

---

You use the resources readily available.

---

Looks like there is going to be some ducking going on.

^^D 5-11^^

^^D12^^

That was too easy. Let's try one a little more subtle.

A2: I think the colors they used for that illustration are horrible.
On a car battery red is always positive. It is never a color used to represent negative as in the illustration.

Black is typically used for ground or negative. Not green.

Dear Battery Guy, Thank you. I should have noticed that. That is serious enough that I removed the illustration.
