But yeah, it wouldn't surprise me if Dali was an influence on Gilliam.

Dear Lord, Make Him Stop - a limerick
I fear poor Muldoon has dementia

His lim'ricks don't rhyme
And they don't scan "in-time"...

Every time I see Dali's works in a museum I'm shocked at how small they are. I always imagined them to be on large canvases but they're usually pretty small.

The Dali museum in Tampa Florida had both his small works and 14-foot tall paintings.
Posted by: NaughtyPine at July 23, 2020 09:40 AM (sYlPw)
The blues and greens used throughout show the many tints and colors of the sea. It is strong visually. The idea of a ship as an extension of Man (or Woman, ships are usually called 'she') is old and powerful. It is an intriguing painting. It feels like Shelly could write a poem about the image.
I have no idea what the creature in the sky is.
Dali is so strange and unpredictable in what he portrays and how, I think each painting has to be taken one at a time.

The casting in that film was pretty interesting. The only character I didn't really like was Zelda Fitxgerald. Blythe Danner was a better choice years ago, but one had to suffer through Richard Chamberlain who was miscast as Scott.

A Lifetime of Meritorious Service - a limerick
He served with great verve and panache,
In a plume and an upswept mustache
He never got bored
In a life underscored
By sodomy, rum, and the lash

Maybe Dali was commenting on the masculine and feminine aspects(?) of a ship. The strong supportive ship(?) And the more flowing, feminine sails? And of course that would mean the bat signifies....hmmm...not sure.

These seem to be happening in blue enclaves, like most of the violence these days. And Catholics in blue enclaves tend to be as blue as anyone else in the enclave.
So, they're now being attacked by antifa foot soldiers, their holy symbols desecrated. But these blue enclave Catholics are supposed to be the good guys. Their priests say Black Lives Matter in their homilies and they happily nod along with the Marxist sentiments implied.
It's got to be shaking them a bit about how rabid the left is getting. "But we kneeled!" is the sort of thing someone seems to say right as they are being mugged by reality.

"Having a mild case of Covid-19 is not at all good news!"
Yeah, so no...if you read the article, yes it is good news...since anti-bodies fade over time, T-Cell immunity, the kind that help you never get the virus again, actually stay. Vaccines based on creating just the anti-bodies "may" lose effectiveness over time, but even that isn't all that bad. So, the headline isn't even close to being what's in the article, and no, you can't re-catch Covid-19, and they tried to sort of kind of suggest it, they never get there because, yeah that's bunk too. What a piece of garbage and waste of time that article is.

Well, the mob isn't controlled by the Democratic establishment, but by the money men who want what they want. The establishment is also controlled by the money men, which is why they won't move against the mob.
However, caught in the middle are actual voters.
Many are true believers and will never be reached, but there are many others who take up politics like a fashion without much thought, and events may be forcing them to think.

Antibody titers (levels) in the bloodstream to any antigen, do go down, when the body is no longer exposed to that antigen. But the B-cells that produce those antibodies remain. And are poised to respond to the antigen again.

This is true for luxury goods. For cheap goods or inferior goods, you can't drive the price down as low as they have without pennies-on-the-dollar labor costs. But for luxury goods, the amount of the product represented by labor costs is quite a lot lower. I do not get luxury goods or high-end goods manufacturing in China or other third-world places. Yes, the margins are still higher and from that standpoint I understand it, but it seems like they want to control *only* for labor costs.

That seems to be the big reason Italy got hit so hard by the Chinese Lung AIDS.
They import Chinese slave labor to manufacture luxury goods so that they can still say it's made in Italy, even though it's the same sh*t made by the same illiterate, abused slaves as would be coughing and drooling on it in China.

At this time, all 119-persons on board the vessel have been screened. The crew members who tested negative will be relocated to Anchorage to isolate and quarantine.

For a long time it's been very "tribal," as Jonah would say... Whatever goes wrong, it's the other team's fault. Over the last ten years, a huge number of Republicans figured that out and finally gutted their own Party.
I think it will be MUCH harder for the dum-dums still loyal to the Democrat Party to wake up and smell the ersatz camp-coffee, but am hopeful some event or chain of events will do the trick.
Perhaps unabashed Maoist lawlessness from their leaders will do the trick, but I think it will only happen if they lose another election as a result. At the end of the day, the average Democrat's god is government, and political weakness and failure is probably the only thing that can really get under their skin.

An electoral blowout for Democrats this year would probably be the next major even leading to the end of their party.
The moderates would blame the radicals, and the radicals would blame the moderates. The establishment would try to wrest control from the activists and the activists would try to wrest control from the establishment.
The money men will split as well. Some will wonder why they've been funding a losing movement and others will double down on the losing strategies.
All political parties are disparate meshes of interest groups, but it feels like the Democratic Party is particularly frayed. I mean, we're not talking about the activists saying mean things about the establishment, we're talking about activists actively attacking the establishment through riot.

Judging from the pictures they have posted, she weighed at least 200-250 lbs. I'd say that's a pretty big underlying health condition. No pun intended.

The Plimsoll markings tattooed on her sides were a big giveaway.

very grudgingly approved my claim. Only 4-5 shingles damaged but the old
shingles are no longer manufactured and none are available nationwide
anymore. They don't match any other style/color.
Thus - a complete tear off and redo.

That angle didn't work for me when a Tornado brushed by our neighborhood in Kentucky.
They were only going to replace the siding on the one side of the house that was damaged by hail and leave the other pieces in place.
I told the guy no way they will never match. He said I could cough up the extra $200 myself to get them replaced and he would approve the labor for that.
I have bad OCD so I gave them the $200.

Thank you. That was worth reading. The essay also mentioned Dalis fascination with bats.
Like many people today, Dali knew he wanted to be famous but: * suppose that you have nothing in you except your egoism and a dexterity that goes no higher than the elbow... How then do you become Napoleon?*
He had a talent for becoming famous in a peculiar society that valued his art.

Ordering your Local LE to attempt to arrest federal agents in order to keep them from enforcing federal law would finally do it, I think that's a certainty. I don't think Krasner is that stupid, but you never know.

My roofer does not like Allsnake at all.
But it also depends on the terms of your policy. Mine guarantees "replacement" and pro rata does not apply. I did have to pay extra for that coverage over the years but it was something like $50-$75 more on top of my 'regular' premium.
Also, secure a roofer before the adjuster gets there and have him/her/it present when the adjuster reviews the damage.

An electoral blowout for Democrats this year would probably be the next major even leading to the end of their party.
That's my hope, but I know the GOPe will do what they can to prevent it.
If we hadn't had all those retirements in 2018, we'd probably be well down that road by now and they'd be even more insane than they are today.

Reynolds has recommended Barbara Oakley on learning, and her course Learning How to Learn is the most popular course on Coursera.
Oakley says that Dali (and Henry Ford) would seek inspiration in the twilight stages of sleep by thinking of what they wanted to solve/create and then holding keys or similar while dozing off. When asleep, the keys would drop, wake them up, and they'd go back to work on the problem.
That works for me, but maybe that's just because I'm crazy. Still, good excuse for a nap.
Hemingway, though, maybe had a better idea. Alcohol to create and caffeine to produce.
I gave up drinking, but hopefully I will be part of the next prisoner exchange.
