Unconscious Body Surfing Cafe

Sunset photographed from under water, by Dan Legend

Tiger gives some tourists a story to tell their families once they've recovered from their heart attacks.

Re-post: horse racing through sea caves.

Lazy horse doesn't want to give rides. So any time you approach him to get on him, he flops over and pretends he just died.

Life with huge dogs who still think they're little puppies.

Soulful dog.

Baby and dog play.

A torrid affair that scandalized the barnyard.

Weekend plans.

Steve Inman:

Old pervert gets Instant Justice. If only this guy were around during Biden's political career.

This has to be the sloppiest public brawl ever.

Purse-snatcher learns that not only does crime not pay, but it results in serious and possibly permanent physical injury.

Season's beatings.

Would be carjacker gets jacked by a car.

This better not be AI.

These source were sometimes know by the acronym "PACO", which stands for "Penguin Activated Comrade Operater". PACO assets were kept in line in the usual manner, assisted by carefully maintained catalogs of photographs and films of their clandestine midnight mephitic meetups.

81 Electric blankets are great when you're chilled, just want to *thaw out* & don't want to mess with the thermostat.

When hubby first got sick (and lost too much weight), I couldn't get this house warm enough for him, poor guy. Bought him an electric blanket & he snuggled under for about 2 weeks; I swear he only got out of bed to use the bathroom!

I use it to pre-heat the bed before I turn in on coldest nights, then switch it off or I'll get too warm.

Single digits this morning, negative with wind chill. A month early for this sort of thing, but its warming up. In the mid-20s now.

That opens the path for snow. Michigan never gets serious snow when it's single digits.

Some years ago a big eruption in Iceland caused major disruption for airlines and the rotator aircraft out of Dover.

Subsequently, that's now a planning factor - the air link can be severed without warning.

122 Chilly in Babylon DC. Its 30 more or less, and had a bit of snow today. Just enough to cover the ground but easy enough to brush off the car. No issues driving into work other than slow, Friday beltway traffic. One of my co-workers cat had a stroke so he won't be in tonight. Going to have to put the ole kittuh down, sadly. Poor kittuh. He's pretty shook up. Hard to lose a pet.

124 When I did live in NY I always planned on making a Summer room if I ever bought a house. I'd take the smallest bedroom and cover the floor with sand , project an ocean beach scene with gentle waves on an entire wall and hang a hammock . A couple of sun lamps would complete the room. I loved the first month of winter and dreaded the next 3 months.

Now back South I just converted two of my bedrooms to a movie theater and an art studio.

137 Nice soft flannel sheets and an electric blanket for me.
Posted by: Tuna
------
I won't use an electric blanket. We have a mattress cover that has electric heating elements that we turn on a half hour before we go to bed so we don't climb into cold sheets, but it gets turned off when I'm in bed.
I've found that I feel very tired and listless in the morning if I sleep.with an electric blanket. It is probably due to the heat making it difficult for my body to regulate my temperature, but I have an alternative theory.
Each one of those wires next to your body is creating a small magnetic field at 60 HZ. Red blood cells are hemoglobin, which contains iron. Are the red blood cells on the surface of your body vibrating at 60 HZ if you're under an electric blanket? Can't be good.
I'll remove my tinfoil hat and leave now.
