My brother married a Colonel in the Air Force and while she was in Washington as Squadron Commander for Air Force One and other government planes they threw a party while I was there. The house was full of high-ranking friends of theirs when my brother got everybody's attention to tell them that I would be the very first person to taste his first batch of home-brewed beer. With great fanfare, he poured me a glass and I sipped it. I had no idea what it was supposed to taste like so I said it was delicious. My brother then poured everyone else a glass and within minutes he screamed at me that the batch had spoiled and why didn't I warn them? That's right, he screamed at his own brother who was just trying to go along to get along.

You expect me to believe that a blunt forced this trauma?

AND AWRY WE GO

^^B1^^

A 17-year-old Swiss girl is the latest tourist enraging Italians by carving into walls of the ancient Colosseum.

Look at the size of those bricks.

^^B2^^

A bystander prevents a collision at the last second.

^^B3^^

I understand the stop, drop, and roll but I think I could have yanked off that shirt in half the time.

^^B4^^

^^B5^^

According to the internet, that happens rather frequently.

^^B6^^

Remember this guy minding his own business when all of a sudden...

Let's hope the camera was on a tripod.

Just something else to worry about.

When I make a mistake while speaking I tell people English is my second language. If they ask what my first language is I tell them the language of love. If they say that doesn't make any sense I tell them "Sorry English is my second language".

When people give me directions and say "You can't miss it", buddy, you have no idea what I'm capable of.

I threw a party in my backyard years ago and at the time I had the largest pink dogwood tree that anyone had ever seen. 

I mounted two clamp lights with 200-watt bulbs in forks in the limbs and it was as beautiful as that first image.

^^C4^^

I have a new desktop image.

^^C5^^

^^C6^^

A simple but effective manual tool to extract plastics and rubbish from the beach sand.

And here's a robot that does the same thing.

But in the original clip, I wonder why there were no sea shells.

^^C7^^

Fun With Electricity

^^C8^^

Featherless Bird

I finally found a picture of a bird that looks exactly like the bird I saw that would whistle the theme song from the Andy Griffith Show. I just stared with mouth agape as it did it over and over again.

^^C9^^

Mask Making

^^C10^^

I own one of these and never knew why they were shaped like that.

This explains the shape.
