The Great Pup-kin Cafe

dogandelepbantbarrybland.png
(c) Barry Bland

The Kramer of cats. "Oh I'm jonesin' for tuna, Jerry!!!"

Sound on: Porcupine enjoying an apple.

Cute little dog with a hurt paw just needed someone to rug the sting out of it.

Monkey riding a fawn.

Cat enjoying corn on the cob.

The USS Octopus goes activates its stolen Romulan cloaking device.

No one ever says something is boring by saying "it's as interesting as watching a stream freeze." That's because watching a stream freeze is pretty interesting!

Driving through Paris in 1920. Colorized with added sound.

German shepherd is not at all sold on this new German shepherd puppy interloper.

Man comes across a thirsty armadillo beside a desert road, gives him a drink a lot of pets. Very cute.

Pandas up to their typical nonsense.

When a seal comes over for a hug and kiss.

All within the sound of my roar -- know you are under my domain!

She picked it up and said, "Why is it so heavy?"

I said, "Because it is not a toy. It is a real, deadly weapon and you will have to learn to treat is as such."

When we had one cat we could not leave a package of sweet rolls out on the counter. He'd rip it open and eat the icing off of every single one of them.

Of course this is the same one that figured out how to use the foot pedal on the old style refrigerator to open it up in the middle of the night and make himself a snack of say fresh steak...

40 We had a big armadillo try to tunnel under our house. I walked out the back door and saw a big pile of dirt it had thrown out. It was too far down in the hole for the dogs to get, but they were going nuts. I had reach down there and drag it out by the tail, and it did not want to come out. The dogs had great fun chasing it into the woods.

62 Using inductive logic, the chances of extremely complex things being designed intelligently is much, much higher and much more rational than "it just ended up that way by chance".

We talk about how bad human caused global warming is about being non falsifiable because they always find a way to argue that this is yet another example of global warming: Its cold, its hot, its rainy, its dry, there are a lot of hurricanes, there are few hurricanes, no matter what the data, that's evidence of global warming. Because the entire system is designed to give you that result.

Darwinian Evolution is the same way: no matter what the data, no matter what is discovered, its somehow proof that Darwinian Evolution is correct.

Which leads me to wonder; what possible information or evidence would be required to show that it is not correct? Or is it even possible to find any such thing? Because if you cannot ever even imagine something that refutes your scientific theory, that's not terribly scientific. If its irrefutable, as in not possible to refute through data and research, is it really science or just faith?

Rabies is also called hydrophobia. If it wanted a drink, it probably wasn't rabid.

Hydration means thinner saliva, which means less chance of rabies being passed on. So the virus makes its victims scared of drinking.

Sometimes intelligent design sucks for everyone else.

181 Slight movement seen from wounded suspect potentially holding hand grenade inside nearby barn; Bomb squad currently en route

I thought the bomb squad were the ones who carefully carried the explosive backpack to somewhere where they could let it explode safely, or did that "red wire, blue wire" thing.

What particular "bomb squad" skills apply to confronting a living human holding a grenade? Sounds like a job for a hostage negotiator or a sniper, to me.

Acute traumatic back pain should get a CT scan. If you get an XR and see a fracture, you get a ct. if you don't see a fracture, you still get a ct because XR sucks at seeing vertebral fractures. New or worse radiculopathy gets a CT. It is almost as good as MRI. TLR, XR sucks for back pain.

274 It's impossible to know which stories to trust out of the Ukraine fiasco, but when Russia makes public admissions against interest, it's a good bet something serious just happened. So Ukraine is trying to take Kherson, a city which controls the northern access to Crimea. It's been hard to know the status of this drive - but Al Jazeera today reports that the governor of Kherson, backed by Moscow, has now called on all Russian civilians to evacuate Kherson for safer areas south. Other reports say Ukrainian formations are now within 12 miles of Kherson. Kinda sounds like the Russians are getting worried about holding it.

I'm not a cheerleader for either side, it's two crime families slugging it out. And yes, the grift from this country is outrageous. BUT I watch it because I enjoy watching real world strategy and tactics, and both sides are making some interesting tactical moves, acting, countering, and then reacting. (You have to search out translations of eastern Euro and Russian language blogs to find out about it.) It really is a 21st century war; the tactics used in the 20th century by everyone don't work anymore, so both sides are improvising.

And they'll gaslight it all the way, claiming we were the Uke supporters, and they were counseling restraint all along the way.

The real outrage, which is public but no one seems to care, is that out of that first $30 billion that was voted for Ukraine, only $6 billion of it actually went to them. The balance, $24 billion, went to NGO's, arms manufacturers that have Congressmen on their boards, and friends, family, and close associates of said Congressmen. No surprise that they voted for it so quickly.
