In the 14-years since he has been on the station, he has accumulated flight pay and interest amounting to almost $ 15,000,000 American Dollars. This is held in a trust at the Lagos National Savings and Trust Association. If we can obtain access to this money, we can place a down payment with the Russian Space Authorities for a Soyuz return flight to bring him back to Earth. I am told this will cost $ 3,000,000 American Dollars. In order to access the his trust fund we need your assistance.
Consequently, my colleagues and I are willing to transfer the total amount to your account or subsequent disbursement, since we as civil servants are prohibited by the Code of Conduct Bureau (Civil Service Laws) from opening and/ or operating foreign accounts in our names.

If you want to see amazing technical painting skill and photo realism look up Michael James Smith videos. He makes Bob Ross look like a grade school beginner. That said it's not really 'art' to me but just a human photocopier. Still absolutely amazing though and fascinating to watch.

I could study this painting for hours for the use of light, color and texture and for what the various items say about the culture for the poor in that place and time.

No cab company with any sense would use Teslas as cabs. They have to spend 4 hours charging for every hour on the road. The car is an expensive piece of capital equipment, and when it's idle, it's not earning you money. Gasoline cars can be run almost 24/7, earning all the time.

Steel toes -- Kidlet is currently wearing $$$ work boots. They have some kind of composite toe cap that in colder weather stays warmer than conventional metal but still meets OSHA standards. Good for her, but I recommended buying a reasonably-priced pair of boots for spare. Stepping in those 'puddles' or snowbanks means you need drying time, even for the $$$ boots.

Stirling the Evil Black Kitten of War and Pestilence was less pestilential this morning. He was playing, but he left me and the couch mostly alone. If only that could continue!
The lady nearby who raises Siberians has the brown tabby kitten for me, but hasn't told me what the price is. She said she'd give me a discount -- but I don't know what her regular charge is.

~Either the Joker or a white dwarf star, I forget which. Posted by: BourbonChicken at August 30, 2022 10:40 AM (44ww/) ======== The direct quote is from the Joker, but the Joker was inspired by the Dr. Mabuse character as presented in Fritz Lang's Mabuse movies, particularly The Testament of Dr. Mabuse where he talked about the Reign of Crime. It's also an extension of a certain apocalyptic bent in Lang's late-German work, mostly the second part of Die Nibelungen, Kriemhild's Revenge, when he was watching Weimar collapse around him and the rise of Nazism. This survived into his early American work with movies like Fury and Western Union.

I used to carpool with the BernieBro in my writing group. Bear in mind he's over 70, but still I was astonished at how sloppily he drove: sticking to the right lane no matter what, refusing to use the elevated expressway, following too close, apparently never looking ahead and planning in case someone stopped short. I never let him drive my car and I was nervous all the time in his.

Along Dixie Highway here in Kentucky the state has implemented what they call "J-turns" which are really just "U-turn" lanes in the center divide. They're doing this at what were dangerous intersections so there's no cross traffic... unless you're pulling one of those "J-turns" and get T-boned.

They put in a roundabout 1/4mile west of me, there is a new traffic light 1/4 mile east of me...between the two, traffic pattern has changed to the point it takes FOREVER to be able to pull out from any of the side streets between them...too evenly spaced and close together.
4way stops had worked well at both locations. Actually, where the stop light is it was a 3-way stop...but the local Catholic College put in a soccer practice field and parking lot on the 4th side, and the light is used to let their people out of it..even though nearly all of the players walk there, seldom any cars use the lot...it still gets it full share of the cycle.
