Garrett's Mom Cafe
Devataki cave, Bulgaria
Cute little cave-swimmer. I think that the idea with this road, which forces you into lane-changes into oncoming traffic through tight turns, is to give everyone a good turning radius, but this still seems crazy to me. Platypus! Apparently a baby platypus is called a "puggle," which I'm surprised isn't more widely publicized. Claustrophobia alert. Aww, poor little fox wants to steal a fish. This striped cuckoo's dance moves are fiyah. The Lauterbrunnen Valley in Switzerland, whose 72 waterfalls inspired Tolkein's Rivendell. The other landmark inspiring Rivendell? Garrett's Mom. I cannot figure out what this guy is doing to achieve this ghost-walking effect, so I will assume it's CGI. I will also assume that I could do it, if I felt like it. A train-themed restaurant where your drinks and food are delivered by, yes, model trains. The maned wolf or "golden dog" of South America. What it looks like is a sexier hyena. Eclipse at sunset. Like all eclipses, it is disappointing. Volcanic smoke-ring. Today in 1996, Tomb Raider was released, in which Laura Croft searches for treasures inside Garrett's Mom. There's a man on the wing. As I always say: Nature is weird and gross.

Cueva de los Murciélagos is located in Mexico. When the sun goes down, 2 to 3 million bats swirl up from the depths of the cave, forming a tornado of fur & wings that's a surreal experience

Two fragments of an enormous statue have been unearthed at the Temple of Hercules in Amman, Jordan. The temple dates back to around 160 CE, to the time when Amman was part of the Roman Empire.
Dubbed the Hand of Hercules, this fragment, along with an elbow, are the only pieces yet discovered of a massive marble statue. Based on the size of its fingers, the statue may have towered as high as 40ft (12m).

In the past few weeks, Muslims and Arabs have poured into the streets in nearly every U.S. city to celebrate the slaughter of Israelis, while wearing scarves, keffiyehs and other clown outfits, waving the flags of Palestine, Egypt, Algeria, Iraq, Lebanon, Morocco, Yemen, Turkey, Afghanistan, India, Pakistan, Nigeria, and on and on.
It’s so obvious that these people don’t belong here that the immediate reaction of a number of politicians was to demand that their visas be revoked. (Nobody looked at anti-war protests in the ’60s and said, Revoke their visas!)
Question: Why are we importing millions of people from lesser cultures who will inevitably despise and resent the West for its very success?.." and so on and so on. Clown outfits. This woman deserves a Pulitzer. Or whatever they bestow on writers.

Actually, the Anunnaki developed a taste for North Pole penguin while they were forcing the Sumerians to dig for gold. They ate them in soups, stews and even baked into cakes. There are even reliefs on the walls at Oak Island showing various recipes they used. The North Pole penguin was hunted into extinction.

Six years after authorities found a World War II-era arsenal, including a 1943 40-ton tank called the "Panther of Heikendorf" and an 88 mm anti-aircraft cannon, in the cellar of resident in the northern town of Heikendorf, the individual received a suspended prison sentence of 14 months.

This is one of the most expensive silent movie stunts of all time.
This shot from Buster Keaton's "The General" (1926) cost $42,000 (equal to $600,000 today). The production company left the wreckage of the train in the Row River, south of Cottage Grove in Oregon. The site became a tourist attraction until 1944 when the wreckage was finally salvaged and scrapped during World War II.
"The General" went way over budget, costing $750,000 (equal to $11 million today) in total. Some of the unforeseen costs included "Keaton being knocked unconscious; an assistant director being shot in the face with a blank cartridge; a train wheel running over a brakeman's foot, resulting in a $2,900 lawsuit; and the train's wood-burning engine causing numerous fires. The fires often spread to forests and farmers' haystacks, which cost the production $25 per burnt stack."
Posted by: andycanuck (krqg6) at October 25, 2023 08:10 PM (krqg6)
Today, "The General" is regarded as one of the greatest films of all time. Roger Ebert gave the film 4 stars and listed it on his top 10 in 2002. He had this to say about Buster Keaton: "Today I look at Keaton's works more often than any other silent films. They have such a graceful perfection, such a meshing of story, character, and episode, that they unfold like music. Although they're filled with gags, you can rarely catch Keaton writing a scene around a gag; instead, the laughs emerge from the situation... And in an age when special effects were in their infancy, and a 'stunt' often meant actually doing on the screen what you appeared to be doing, Keaton was ambitious and fearless. He had a house collapse around him. He swung over a waterfall to rescue a woman he loved. He fell from trains. And always he did it in character, playing a solemn and thoughtful man who trusts in his own ingenu

No, Peggy would click the easy button - about as often as she'd click the tap on whatever box of wine wasn't empty yet - while dreaming about Jimmie Cooper giving John Wayne the what for. You know, while Jimmie was bumbling and stumbling all over himself, right before we cut scene and suddenly those law books meant something rather than Lee Marvin beating his ass outside a saloon.
Peggy invented the opposite of today's up-talk. Because no flowery tart, even today, wants to sound like she'd deep sucked two packs of Winstons before sounding as stupid as Peggy Noonan. If my beagle could recite old Reagan speeches - he'd sound like Peggy. If he were gay.

The photo of Elephanta is actually that of the Kailasa Temple at Ellora (not real close to Mumbai), an impressive building, as it and the galleries surrounding its courtyard are all of the same 1 piece of basalt. The builders simply removed all rock from the basalt flow that was NOT the temple and galleries. I saw it many years ago,, when I was 10, along with other Hindu temples beside it, the Jain temples, to the temple's right, and the Buddhist temples on the left.
Elephanta really is a cave that was carved into a temple. The central figure is a giant sculpture, maybe 11 feet tall, of Brahma, Vishnu and Shiva. I've been here too, same age.

Stupid pastime, easy way to get dead.
One of the leaders of our NOLS course took a 20 foot fall in a cave, broke a couple of ribs, and had to be airlifted out of the Absorakas.
I had the pleasure, along with another student, of walking out to civilization to get to a phone to call in said airlift.
I'm pretty sure the instructor didn't want to bet his life on a couple of knuckleheads with a topo map, but he didn't have much of a choice.

Today was the second day, the first day being not-relevant testimony by SEVEN witnesses. Today was the County Manager, saying the biotch was playing games with coming up with her health department budget, and going to the press claiming she was but out of the process.
Also, the biotch was the final witness - her opportunity to defend herself.
Each side then summarized, and the County Board had some discussion, took care of minor unrelated business (appointing a Dem and GOP to two vacant board of canvasser seats), heard some public comments, and RECESSED until Monday at 8a.
I'm pretty sure her ass is gone Monday.

Someone here said they are named after a hairstyle and not the 8-engined bomber
Posted by: Ciampino
The beehive is a hairstyle [...] is also known as the B-52 due to a resemblance to the distinctive nose of the Boeing B-52 Strategic Bomber.
Posted by: Drive by
So, the band is named for the bomber, if the hairstyle is.
Otherwise it's like saying I'm not named for the archangel Michael, because I'm named for my grandfather. Sophistry.

The Tikkun Olam Council has decided to join the following project because it aligns with our Jewish values and Bet Ha’am’s mission of reducing violence in the world:
The Maine Gun Safety Coalition is a grassroots organization founded in 2000 to protect Maine families and communities from gun violence. They educate parents, administrators and the public about issues relating to gun safety, voice the concerns of their constituents to elected officials about gun legislation and provide free trigger locks to prevent the accidental discharge of weapons by children and unlicensed individuals.
The Maine Gun Safety Coalition is starting a project called Show Up Network (SUN). They have rightly concluded that the only way to get gun safety legislation passed in Maine is to make sure legislators hear from gun safety constituents in the same large numbers that the gun lobby is able to mobilize.

The Maine Gun Safety Coalition is starting a project called Show Up Network (SUN). They have rightly concluded that the only way to get gun safety legislation passed in Maine is to make sure legislators hear from gun safety constituents in the same large numbers that the gun lobby is able to mobilize.

That's the thing about guitar. How do you judge 'em ? The techniques don't even match.
Campbell was an exceptional flat picker. Reed and Atkins finger picked. Allman played slide, easy. Clapton did a hybrid thing while all hands on the neck, and almost did it banjo style.
Its one instrument that's so cool, because of so many ways you can play it, then include it in a band.

Posted by: LenNeal asks WTF at October 25, 2023 09:41 PM (/BBNv)
That and/or because our constitutional carry limits us from carrying in places that serve alcohol (and for some stupid reason, state parks). Seems like two of the three places hit were alcohol serving locations, and the third is a walmart distribution center which probably bans its employees from carrying.

Here's a spoiler alert. Technically ? He's not even close. Really not.
But he played Electric Delta Blues. And all those open chords, easy shapes, and recognizable riffs are that way for a reason. They hook your brain, for certain segments like me, for a reason.

yes, the period of the 80's where a very small budding LGBTQ enclave was hiding among the metal bands and decided to raid their girlfriend's makeup and wardrobe and then sat around writing songs about the girlfriends whose makeup and wardrobe they raided.

It was problematic. I'll probably just walk away - I could ask the sellers to repair or drop the price, but if they drop the price then I'm stuck having to arrange all that, and I honestly don't think I can manage it even if $$ is not an issue.
I got a lot of good advice and I'll sleep/pray on it and check with my realtor in the morning.
