The Giant Groundsel, a plant that survives from prehistory
atop Mt. Kilamanjaro

Strange vegetation. JackStraw will be all over this thread. He enjoys various "Wacky Weeds," if you know what I'm saying.

Little girl complains like an adult about having to walk to school while carrying a backpack. She complains the backpack weights two kilos because she has a water bottle and apple in it.

Man climbs streetlight pole to free a bird who's gotten himself stuck.

Penguin gets in on the Hunter Biden Art Grift. Duncanthrax was right!

A big pod of orcas enjoy the surf.

Goofy camel tries to join a herd of horses.

Scootering through a gorge.

The thing he's riding is a "FoilScoot," an aquatic scooter. If you want one, it only costs $8,399.

If you want to experience some real anxiety, watch this video of a free diver beneath a river's ice with no air hole.

The oarfish, often called the "doomsday fish" because Japanese folklore says they only appear to herald the coming of an earthquake or typhoon. They're rarely seen because they live in the deep ocean between 650 and 3000 feet down.

ICYMI: A very senior dog has arthritis but still has happyfeet for his owner.

The Canyon of the Crescent Moon.

The Dragon Tree.

The Dragon Blood Tree in in Yemen.

Deer enjoy the cherry blossoms in Nara Park, Japan.

Namibia, where the desert runs right into the ocean.

Corgi somehow got hired to be a police dog.

Paralyzed dog is so excited to get his new wheelchair.

Just clean up the neckhair, please.

A giant bear is scared by photographic flashes. He knows he's up to no good.

Boingggg.

Absolute jackass slams on the breaks in the middle of a high-speed highway because he missed his exit. He causes a huge traffic pile-up. I want to warn you before you click on this. It's just maddening that people do this instead of just driving a two or three miles and taking the next exit.

The very rumor of them being in an operation area was enough to cause Russians to abandon their skis, but mostly the smell. Finns were immune to this smell as a result of various herring products served at all meals from an early age. And vodka.

"Throughout history, poverty is the normal condition of man. Advances which permit this norm to be exceeded — here and there, now and then — are the work of an extremely small minority, frequently despised, often condemned, and almost always opposed by all right-thinking people. Whenever this tiny minority is kept from creating, or (as sometimes happens) is driven out of a society, the people then slip back into abject poverty.

70 There are a couple of Orca pods that hang out outside the the Gibraltar straight. They are randomly attacking sailboat rudders in the open ocean. Some times they snap them off and the boat sinks. They are studying them to understand why this particular pod is acting poorly and possibly training others to attack.

Also the Joshua tree. It is a strange prehistoric looking blight that reminds me of something out of a Dr. Zeus book. They should be eradicated just because they are creepy looking and should have gone extinct millions of years ago.

Our schools are turning out functional retards by comparison. “Big Education” needs to be destroyed, the teachers unions, the woke groomer shit, all of it. Kill it with fire. The teachers unions also controls Politics to a great degree in every city and town in this country. If you wonder why everything is FUBAR , that’s a huge component .

Three outdoorsmen were discussing their favorite pass time. "I like to hunt grizzlies with a rfle," said the first guy.

"I hunt grizzlies with a bow and arrow," the second one bragged.

"I hunt grizzlies with a club," claimed the third.

"A club? Are you crazy? That's just too scary."

"Not at all. There are thirty-five or forty people in my club."

29 years ago at Barney's Beanery a couple got into it. Thrown punches, room to room scuffling. Musta given them the stinkeye, they came over to explain they were stunt people trying to impress a casting agent. They were a bit concerned I might misunderstand and clock the guy.

I won’t judge. I find it horribly offensive to kill an animal to stuff it and put its body on display. If it is eaten, that’s different.

I don’t understand killing for sport.

130 A man who was a member of the Order of the Moose went hunting with an old friend who was a member of the Elks' club.
They were in a stand, overlooking a water hole, when a bull moose shouldered out of the brush and went down to take a drink from the fresh flowing water.
"Don't shoot him," the one friend, "it is like he is a lodge brother or something." So they let the moose drink in peace and depart.

Later a bull elk strode majestically out of the trees and sauntered down to the spring. The Elks' member shot it dead, and said, "Wasn't one of ours, he was drinking water"

I made it to about 80 then freaked the f*** out. Worst panic feeling ever. I can't imagine being in a tube AND under water. My hats off to submariners.

Look, There are still Americans that HUNT not for the Trophy but for the food that they will bring into their homes to sustain them for the winter and sometimes into the spring.

It is our right as Americans. Hard as it is for those of us that are slaves to supermarkets and costco's.

Some of our fellow Americans still hunt. AS IS THEIR RIGHT!!!
