After yesterday's orb post, look what I found...

GET LEARNT


"A portrait of the Twin Towers in NYC made with the faces of the victims of the 9/11 attacks on the towers."

About that number of people are still dying of covid every week.

^^A1^^

 Is that a special kind or a rare regular kind?

^^A3^^

*OSIT

^^A4^^

^^A5^^

I had no idea they painted fake cockpits on the bottom to confuse enemy pilots during close-in dog fights. As a matter of fact, I didn't know they still had close-in dog fights.

Do you know why Peter Pan flies? Because he Neverlands. That joke never gets old.

Siri kept calling me Shirley this morning and I was getting really annoyed but then I realized I had left it on Airplane mode.


OBJECTS OF INTEREST


Brilliant!

^^B1^^

That would scare the holy shit out of me.

^^B2^^

They used to stick a nail in a candle and when it burned down the nail would drop down on a pot. It was an alarm clock.

^^B3^^

^^B4^^

I think it was used in a movie.

^^B5^^

^^B5^^

What must a noise like that have done to marine mammals?

^^B7^^

I covet it.

^^B8^^

And that's where I got the idea for my pendulum.

^^B9^^

I stumbled upon this memento from my stint in Germany.

The NCO Club would loan you tokens that could be used for food or drinks. I've often said that had it not been for those tokens I would have starved to death.

^^B10^^

I was looking for two more hasps for my Quarter Box and came upon this in the Amazon listings.

A little out of my price range.

^^B11^^

Neat trick.

^^B12^^

Bear and Kid

Superstitious behavior is like when a pigeon scratches twice and a seed hits his head and he keeps scratching twice as if that caused it. Then I imagine that if the bear knows he is caged up but the human roams free then the bear might want to imitate the human's behavior to see if it sets him free.

^^B13^^

This is a zoo I like.

^^B14^^

Please mute your phone if you are going to crack open a few beers throughout the meeting.

HUMAN MENAGERIE


That took me much too long.

^^C1^^

^^C2^^

What about ball retrieval?

^^C3^^

^^C4^^

A very smart person told me yesterday that Russia is only using precision weapons so as not to harm civilians. A Google search of ruined cities belies that assertion.

^^C5^^

Why soccer skills are valuable.

^^C7^^

Pulling the wrinkles out of your face...

Speaking of...

The Knees Know

I was painting a mural and couldn't move the scaffolding any closer to the corner of the building so I clamped down a 2X12 that extended three feet out. Everything was fine until I let go of the scaffold and my knees began to shake mightily. I was wearing a safety harness with two 3/4" nylon ropes so I knew I couldn't die, yet I shook. Interestingly, I didn't even have to hold the scaffolding to stop the shaking, all I had to do was touch it with one finger. I thought it hilarious.

Finally, I just stood there painting with my knees dancing.

^^C11^^

How do Mexicans cut a pizza? With Little Caesars.

I think the biggest flaw in Star Wars is that the droid has to stick his dick into everything to get it to work.


CAUTIONARY TALES


I thought everybody on the planet knew not to stand up in a boat.

^^D1^^

Many dehumanized people just snap...

If you put me in a cubicle I would snap before lunch.

^^D2^^

Remember this guy showing off for the ladies?

^^D3^^

Flint, Michigan?

^^D4^^

Why would you put holes in a stage?

^^D5^^

^^D6^^

^^D7^^

Don't. Do. That.

^^D8^^

^^D9^^

How to enjoy a pool...

^^D10^^

This is how not to enjoy a pool...

^^D11^^

Then there is whatever the hell this is...

Let's see how that looks up close...

I don't hate Capitalism anymore than I hate America. But neither is perfect and there are problems that need to be addressed. And you people who say Capitalism is perfect, what you mean is Capitalism is perfect for you. But there is a whole bunch of needless suffering going on and I think we can and should do better.

Are there any Mormons who would like to respond to that?

Winston Churchill. The very WORST form of government is socialism, which impoverishes all but a tiny minority and which ALWAYS ends in ultra violence...
