 One Of My Very Own

*That's an old joke. I just thought it would be funnier if an Eskimo said it.

FOR AMUSEMENT ONLY


^^A1^^

^^A2^^

"SEATED".

^^A3^^

I met my friend Rupert while I was student-teaching at a high school. One day he came up to me with a plate of brownies and offered me one. I was very suspicious since he had a half dozen giggling buddies behind him. So, I grabbed the biggest one, shoved it toward my mouth, and...palmed it. Then I mimicked chewing and swallowing the whole thing. Throughout the day, people would come up to me and ask how I was feeling.

Rupert went on to become "The Wing King" of Columbia and his wings were the best I've ever had.

Speaking of...

^^A4^^

It looks like somebody found a bunch of my Key Packets and made a shirt out of them.

Trump's Star in Hollywood

Someone finally listened to your plea for pockets...

Did you know that those backpacks have a lifetime warranty against ANYTHING?! You could drop it in a campfire and as long as you brought back the part with the logo they will give you another.

^^A7^^

^^A8^^

Long covid is a real problem, folks. You might want to read up on it.

Why do meditation exercise instructions always start by telling me to close my eyes? How am I gonna read the rest of the instructions?!

PEOPLE WHO SEEM TO KNOW WHAT THEY ARE DOING


I've known a couple of poets and I thought they were a whole different breed.

^^B2^^

Speaking of...

I'm way ahead of you on that one.

^^B3^^

This was in with other images of people doing stupid shit...

I think those men know exactly what they are doing. It may look risky, but I assure you it is not.

^^B4^^

^^B6^^

The way bacon was meant to be cut.

The Original Zamboni from 1949

As I understand it, after sweeping up all the ice shavings, it sprays down a film of water that quickly freezes restoring the surface perfectly.

^^B8^^

Blue-lit supermarket bathroom to prevent intravenous drug consumption.

Is it so they can't see their veins or is there something I don't know?

If you visit Montreal, you gotta check out an area called "residential homes". That’s where all the locals go.

I once surprised my kid by picking her up early from school to take her to an amusement park and the kid was mad because she was in the middle of a math worksheet.

PEOPLE WHOSE BEHAVIOR IS SUBOPTIMAL


"You might want to write that down."

^^C1^^

Because someone told her it would make her look even more beautiful. That "someone" was the people who make those ridiculous shoes.

^^C2^^

How the hell did he get it on top of them?

^^C3^^

I've shown you a dozen clips just like this...

So, how come the cyclists weren't forewarned by the same clips?

^^C4^^

Apparently, he attempted that without wearing a seatbelt. 

Inside those roll bars is the safest place he could be.

^^C5^^

Is he blind or what?

^^C6^^

^^C7^^

I hate staged photos like that. And I will bet money it wasn't even their idea. They probably saw it in a magazine or someplace.

Is it too much to ask for you to make up your own shit from time to time? Here's an example:

^^C8^^

I don't think that is as big a catastrophe as it looks. 

I think it's a salvage yard.

She screamed just like a young woman who had something slimy touch her foot.

Kids who wouldn't let you borrow a pencil in class grow up to not let you merge on the highway now.

Now that people have become accustomed to not knowing whether a person is having a phone conversation or just talking to themselves as they walk down the street I find myself doing a lot more public ranting.

THINGS THAT ARE SELDOM WITNESSED



Would someone with better eyes than mine please tell me what that was all about?

^^D1^^

There is always somebody to tell me that there was no cause for concern because it was this or that kind of shark and isn't dangerous.

I would not enter the water.

^^D2^^

"Naturally cooled"? I looked it up.

"The hot air from the foyer is pulled up through the building and cooler breezes are brought in instead, while the skin of the atrium is creating a dappled shaded effect."

^^D6^^

How very clever.

^^D7^^

As opposed to being carved from the bottom up.

^^D8^^

I understand that it would be very difficult to conquer the castle but at the same time, it would be very difficult for the forces on the island to get anywhere to do anything besides exist.

Whitcomb L. Judson invented the zipper in 1892.

Sure, why not?

Unusual Time Pieces

^^D12^^

The extra height from the modified bony “tripod” fins helps these fish passively hunt in the deep sea and can also detect movement from animals in the sediment below. They are thought to be strengthened by fluids that the fish can pump into them when the fish is standing to become more rigid and fold back when it’s swimming. The long pectoral fins seen here extending up and behind their heads are thought to act like antennae, helping them detect nearby prey and steer it toward their mouths… Much needed, given how reduced their eyes are.

Lego Ship - watch carefully...

Did you notice the man riding a unicorn?

How about the Titanic pose?

Republicans cutting veterans' health care is not mentioned in "source," nor is it found in HR 2811. Is more info available?

A1: it's not quite what it says. The new law bands sexually oriented performances and the presence of minors.
Although it doesn't specifically call out drag shows, that's what the law is aimed at.

C9: I don't think that's a salvage vessel.
The deck is fully outfitted. And I wouldn't think a salvage vessel would have fenders attached to it to keep it from getting scratched.
