The Cafe with No Name

riograndbigbend.jpg
Rio Grande at Big Bend


Live performance of the theme from The Good, the Bad, and The Ugly. There's an ocarina involved. Also, they have a "dead body" hanging from the rafters to put you in a western mood. Does the original just have someone vocalizing the "waah waah waah" parts? I always imagined that was a trumpet with a cover or something.

The theme from Fistful of Dollars, played with guitar and revolver.

Scenes from the Eternal City, San Francisco. My bad, I'm told the Eternal City is Rome. San Francisco is the Eternal Shitty. I'm sorry, I'm just folksy and I speak passionately. I'm a knucklehead who talks like Joe Biden rides a bike. Please elevate me to the second-highest office in the world.

Man admires huge moose and the two share a magical moment of cross-species understanding before the moose gets aggro charges the man.

Couple adopts cute pittie rescued from a hoarding/breeding situation.

More on "Moo Deng Fever," the most contagious viral sensation to come out of Asia since Anthony Fauci paid the ChiComs to make covid-19. (But note Moo Deng is Thai, not Chinese, so you don't have to hate her.)

Clumsy little puppy stalks and takes down the ultimate prey. One might say he pounces and seizes.

I think I linked this last month. This golden retriever puppy thinks he can do a Stealth Attack by just walking slowly. Maybe he's using Dr. Lazarus's Mochtar Stealth Haze.

Trans-species cat barks like a dog until her master sees her, then she goes back to pretending to be a cat.

Cute little street dog puppy asks couple to take her home.

Fuzzy buddies playing tag.

Cats are ninjas. Not just because they are mysterious and may slash you without warning. But also because they can climb like spiders.

Super dog leap.

Cute cats.

Raised by wolves.

It's Friday!

These elephants are out of control.

8 I watched the video about the elephants and the orange truck and at first I was like, "That truck doesn't look remotely orange." Then it hit me.

Guess there's not much one can do when an elephant wants to eat your oranges.

9 I just got back in from fishing so I missed the previous thread.

I have a dumb question. Given that "Zionism" finds its beginnings in 19th century Europe (about the time Darbyism/Dispensationalism was getting popular in Christian circles) it seems that creating a nation-state "Israel" is of supreme importance.

Is all of the war, death and carnage more about people hating the brand or hating the people who moved in? That is, if Israel were to change its name, flag and make some other external markers - rebranding itself - but otherwise not really changing much, would that satisfy people?

They talk about a two-state solution, but that just seems to me to be taking offense at a name nothing about changing the demographic.

Israel isn't a "Jewish nation" anymore than the former United States was ever a "Christian nation". There are more Jews in NYC and Miami than in Israel, but you don't hear River to the Sea chants about the Jews in either of those areas.

So is it really everyone hates the brand?

------------------

I remember seeing on YT a video from a family that adopted a blind kitten who was bouncing around like a maniac excited with the original older cat who just wanted to be left alone. Kitten was so excited wanting to play, or cuddle, or anything and the other cat just ducked or moved off until at one point the sighted cat realized the kitten was blind. She then did a super slow "fast fade" out of the area to get some peace leaving the poor kitten to wonder what happened.

You know when you see a moose head above behind a bar, that is about correct on how tall they are. Oh and they do not like anything except Mussy for a few day.

When I lived in Maine it was pretty common to hear about a car/moose accident. Unlike regular deer moose are so tall that when a car hits them the body often goes right through the windshield. Messy.

Democrats have convinced themselves Trump would try to stay in office for a third term (or for life) if he gets reelected.

Bill Maher believes that’s the biggest risk.

That’s an opinion assigned to voters by the brainwashers. It doesn’t even qualify as dumb or misinformed. No one who has ever met a Republican thinks they would back a dictator.

Republicans aren’t going to back an unconstitutional power grab when the party has a deep bench. It wouldn’t be to anyone’s benefit.

Yes, pooch is a gentleman and a scholar in comparison.

I played a horror game where they have the main character take a drink into a public restroom, and that was one of the grossest things in the whole game! Well that and you watch the character pee into a toilet. With sounds.

I also don't get people taking food into the shower, like yogurt. It's too close to Kramer for me. Even a shower soda seems weird but I know some people do it.

On an episode of Emergency!, Ann Morgan Guilbert, who played Millie Helper on Dick Van Dyke Show, and Yetta Rosenberg on The Nanny, fell from the back of her husband's trail bike, rolled down a hill right into a patch of cactus and was stuck there with many punctures through her clothes. Rescued her with the ladder truck and brought her face down on the gurney to Rampart General.

119 Regarding Francis Fraud Copula from earlier, I learned recently the FFC was so enamored with the director, Victor Salva, that when Salva was arrested for molesting boys, Copula put up the money to get him lawyered.

Salva ended up serving about 4 years, after which he got out, and went to work in Hollowood again, with Copula's blessing.

Copula even sued the kid who had accused Salva of buggering him.

Whatever you think of the depravity of Hollowood, you don't know a fraction of it... unless you do.

181 {{{Ben Had}}} Still about 10,000 customers from my electric co-op without power and lots of cleanup remaining, but many things are returning to mostly normal here. (Clemson held a home football game Saturday night. Full capacity crowd.)

I was only without power 3 days and had no damage (except a leaky window) - I'm relieved that my yuge trees are all still standing. I got lots of help with Mom while everything was in upheaval.

I've just been cleaning up a crap ton of limbs (hoping for last minute pre-MoMe yard work GAINZZZZ) and have more to go. I could have a very nice bonfire but I don't want to burn down the whole 'hood.

My relatives and I fared pretty well. We are thankful.

Posted by: Aetius451AD Work Laptop at October 04, 2024 07:49 PM (PDf99)

Kale is semi-palatable only after the first frost. If you are growing it.
no, I'm serious. White Russian Kale, IMO, is the tastiest. You can eat the new little leaves (sparingly) in a salad (or maybe that smoothie). I think all the kales with red in them taste like wet pennies smell. The ruffled kales are fit only for livestock.

If you buy it, give it to the chickens, or don't buy it. (Maybe frozen kale is better, I dunno. But I doubt it.)

Yeah...same with the Steelhead.

They live on the fat they stored up in the Ocean / Lake.

But, Steelhead can spawn more than once. So, they will return to eating as soon as they complete their spawning run.

Scary Pockets calls their style "electro funk".

The singer in these is Elise Trouw.

On the grill, it's Swordfish or Tuna. Seldom found properly cooked though, either or both.

No I'm not. And neither you nor anyone else can point to any example of Rose throwing a game to win a bet.

There is an enormous industry dedicated to betting on sports. There is about to be a baseball team in Vegas to go along with the football team and hockey team already there.

Rose is one of the best to ever play the game. It wasn't a beauty sport where the "judges" play favorites, it's a game based on performance and Rose did it without steroids or any other cheating. He fucked up and paid a price. Murderers in our society get second chances.

Online sports betting, regardless whether the leagues are partnering with it, is ruining sports. Notice that once it became popular, whining about rigged games and horrible officials increased dramatically.

What's yummy is Pacific Rockfish. Easy to catch too, off shore or off a pier. Shallow water relative of red snapper.

I saw video of Ohtani jogging down to second the other day, for his 50th "steal" of the year. The other team didn't even bother to throw.

I bet the gamblers made out like bandits on that one.

I bet Ohtani's friends and relatives did too. Not his translator though.

369 I have "energy" issues. Some days are good and some ... well, not so good. So as I explained to Ben Had, it will truly be a "week of" decision.

I think I'm gonna need to suck it up, brave the TSA inquisitions, and fly next year.

Prayers up - I hope you can make it to TX, but more than that I hope you have good days.

I got an "enhanced" pat down the last time I flew. Not eager to repeat that experience, at least not from a burly TSA agent of indeterminate gender.

379 True story time: Gambling in MLB was rampant for much of the early part of the 20th century. The Black Sox scandal was not even the end of it.

After Landis threw the book at Joe Jackson and the others, Ty Cobb and Tris Speaker were both caught in a gambling scandal in 1928. They were allowed to quietly retire, and then when the time came, they slid right into the precious Hall of Fame.

Nobody I know. I do confess to eating my share of lobster and oysters.

And of course calamari, our official state appetizer. That's right, we are the only state with an official appetizer.

Take that Texas.

Suckers used to run in the trout stream at my grandparents cabin, and would be thrown ashore in disgust by most fishermen.
Grandma would greet us 5 year olders with praise over what great fisherman we were, and proceed to smoke the tenderloins above the Y bone and make patties from the rest.

Sometimes it's the cook not the fish.
