There's something you don't see anymore. The seat is on runners and the poles were used to propel you down the ice, I'd guess.

The Mid-Morning Art Thread is a great feature by the way, my comment on the season of winter not withstanding. Once upon a time when I was young I majored in Art History, which is really just a history major seen through the lens of created objects. You can learn a lot about a culture by examining its art.

I Knew It! - a limerick
When hunting polar bears is your goal
Mixed veggies surely play a vital role
Just sprinkle 'em 'round, you see
And when a bear takes a pea
Sneak up and kick him in the ice hole

If you should go skating
On the thin ice of modern life
Dragging behind you the silent reproach
Of a million tear-stained eyes
Don't be surprised when a crack in the ice
Appears under your feet
You slip out of your depth and out of your mind
With your fear flowing out behind you
As you claw the thin ice
Posted by: Bitter Clinger at August 17, 2020 09:45 AM (BY52Y)

Buy Polar - a limerick
When the Frozen North's all full of snow
And you don't know which way you should go
When surrounded by ice
You don't have to think twice
Keep it simple, just go with the floe

It's the high point in life when you have parents that do NOTHING when the child acts up like that, for hours, ruining everyone's flight.
I mean, coddle the kid. Give them something to attract their attention. Take them to the bathroom.
Have some fucking consideration for the 150 people sitting around you, asshole.
It really saddens me how fucking selfish people have become in the last decade.

----------
I don't know. Maybe sometimes there's nothing much to be done; it's not the kid's fault and it's not the parents' fault because they don't want to hear it any more than anyone else.
It's the parents who say, "I don't correct Xyler's behavior because it might inhibit his creativity" who should be beaten with a tire iron.

However, After we had our nose bloodied several times, and especially after Kasserine, Mr. Atkinson used a line that - when I read it - sent chills down my spine. He had given a fairly frank assessment of our lukewarm performance of the war - but then he started bringing up the fact that our resources that were coming into the theater were unsurmountable. For every tank or truck destroyed in battle, we were shipping 3 or 4 more into the field every day. Our industrial might started flexing. That wasn't the line that made me quiver - it was that "The Americans had begun to Hate."
At that point, the tide of the theater was irrevokably turned. Our GI's fought no longer just because they were told to, but because they HATED our enemy. They hated that they had to be there, that they had to take up arms and be away from their families - perhaps never to return.
I am beginning to Hate. It's not a feeling that I welcome and every ounce of reason is fighting it - but I cannot restrain it for long. When I heard about the man in Portland who was beaten for trying to defend a fellow citizen from a mob - I begin to hate. When I hear about law enforcement officers being shot, having bricks thrown at their heads and fireworks being used against them, I begin to hate.
Thankfully my immediate area doesn't seem to be impacted by this - but if it does - my hate will manifest itself I'm afraid.

The swampy lake region downstream of the 3 Gorges Dam was turned into farmland (rice fields). They have had the gates on at the damn at full tilt boogie for weeks, and flooded out a lot of farmland. There will be food shortages coming up in China.
China had been able to feed itself for years. You don't see hunger on the streets of Chinese cities like you do in India.
Now, not so sure. Perhaps they have lost the Mandate of Heaven. They will need to buy a lot of grain and soy beans from Australia, Argentina and the US and Canada.

My suspicion is someone got mom on the hook for something or other, and then had her go into her own daughter's business office (at the home they shared) and start taking vids and pics of everything.
So when they charged Millie with obstruction of justice and/or evidence tampering, they had an "investigation" already under way.

When we lived in Marquette Michigan, my granddaughter had a class trip at the end of the school year and they went to the beach for a picnic. The beach was on Lake Superior and the kids jumped from ice berg to ice bergJune 8th! People always described our weather as 9 months of good sledding and 3 months of fair sledding.

That depends on the state. In a common law state a common-law marriage is every bit as legal as one that is recorded. All it takes to be married in Texas is for two people to hold themselves out as husband and wife (or husband and husband, or wife and wife, I guess).

I believe, without any more evidence than is already known publicly, they got married in a church of their choice, and told the state to go f**k themselves when it came to getting a marriage license.
I don't know how much of that is going on these days, probably more than most of us realize.
Why ask the state to bless your marriage, when they're obviously willing to use the power of the state to put YOUR marriage on equal footing with abominable couplings otherwise.

I always thought the purpose of common law marriage was to protect the woman. Texas has no alimony, but community property, so if a man (particularly in the more frontier days) shacks up with a woman and calls her his wife, and she is his wife in everything but ceremony, then dumps her, she had nothing, but if she could prove they held themselves out as being married, she owned half of the cattle and half of the ranch.
