Iceland

High-wire acrobat.

The Himalayas by bus.

Teaching a bird a song.

Cat bothering a rooster.

Dog is flapping his ears so hard he might fly away.

Mom dropping the kid off for soccer practice.

All the algorithms think I like charging baby elephant videos and they're 100% right.

Puppy moves stool so that elderly woman can sit down easier.

Rescued raven loves his adopted dad.

Quoth the Raven: Quiet snore.

Guitar based rock music is not generally popular any longer.

But there are some pop artists that are incorporating live drums and guitar in their songs, like Chad Smith drumming on a Dua Lipa joint.

Posted by: Skip

Saw a video on YT once. Some guy was fishing, saw a raven tangled up in discarded fishing line, very carefully untangled the bird, bird just sat for a bit and looked at him, then flew off. Fisherman goes home. For the next week, fisherman had 'gifts' placed on his back porch. Just odd knick knacks, candy, whatever. He had a small camera in the backyard. That raven was stealing stuff from around the area and placing it on this guys back porch. A 'thank you' from the Raven. God's creatures can be an odd bunch.

109 This is the part of bowl games I hate. Watching Ohio St. win and Michigan lose. I ranted to my mother recently about Michigan and the Rose Bowl. It turns out, I am scared by 3 games: the 1977 and 1979 losses to USC and the 78 loss to Washington. I didn’t see Michigan win until 1981. Michigan was football Kaboom.

A Florida woman filed a hefty class-action lawsuit against The Hershey Company, claiming the chocolate maker used “false and deceptive advertising” for its Reese’s candies.

The complaint, filed on Thursday in Florida’s Middle District Court, alleges that Hershey’s violated Florida’s Deceptive and Unfair Trade Practices Act.

According to the suit, Reese’s Peanut Butter Pumpkins are depicted in the label as having carved-out eyes and a mouth to resemble a jack-o-lantern. But the actual product has no carvings for the eyes and mouth.

The lawsuit links to multiple YouTube reviews from people complaining about being duped by the packaging. In one review, a YouTuber said they were “flabbergasted.”

. Speaking of Caleb and USC, I know he won the Heisman and is the consensus number one pick in the upcoming NFL draft but his replacement in the bowl game seemed a better college QB than Williams. He ran the plays called and didn’t constantly try to improvise…. And he threw 6 TDs; after watching USC all year, he looked better than the Heisman winner….

Bryce — I suspect you’ll eventually see some level of success in the NFL, despite your slight frame, because you’re smart and disciplined. Caleb Williams has to date exhibited very little discipline despite his massive natural talents. But in the NFL if he thinks he can run around and make plays on talent alone against NFL defenses he is sorely mistaken!
