#2 There's an Englishman who made a series of travel vids showing trains around the world. Very interesting. Lots of places like this where people live just feet from. the main line. The one in Nairobi, Kenya is unreal. Shanties right next to the track, garbage 6 ft high, no sewers. But the people are well dressed, kids in uniforms and they commute daily to what I assume are mostly office jobs.
That Englishman would be Michael Palin of Monty Python fame and indeed his first travel documentary was called Great railway travels of the world for BBC TV.
#3 They don't stay little, like that, for long. When we got our (now 2 year old, 100lb) Malinois mutt, he was small next to our 10lb Chihuahua and SO cute. He grew into his name, Thor, quite well.
Starker here, #1That cat should be in a large Hamster Ball. Then it couldn't jump or peal out #3 Puppies is so cute, until they chew everything. #10 Putting explosives in cakes is a bad idea. Yes, I did see that the other able felt was already badly abused.
#10) From the blast pattern, I'd guess a firecracker inside the cake. Bad practical joker: "Now go buy a new Simonis 860 felt for that big fancy eat'n table and we can use the wooden pot passers ag'in."
Seeing that clip, my reaction was "get that shit off the pool table Becky!" then I saw how poorly it looked before the cake exploded. Great Beverly Hillbillies reference ! VC
8 - There is this pair of mockingbirds that nest in a tree by the driveway every year and while that nest is active they will dive bomb you. This is after spending the early part of spring sitting on top of the chimney singing an unlimited supply of different bird songs very loudly. All day. Every day. Starting before sunup. They are the Texas State Bird so shooting them is unlawful. Just sayin.
#9 In Australia we seem to have plenty of TV reporters (almost always young; blonde) who shove mikes into the faces of court-attending possible miscreants with questions such as “are you sorry your car skidded into the kindergarten and killed the 13 kids”. Think I sympathise with this guy

#2: Yeah, I've had days like that.
ReplyDelete#2, tight quarters...every flat space is used.
ReplyDelete#4, That tool saves the back!

ReplyDeleteThat Englishman would be Michael Palin of Monty Python fame and indeed his first travel documentary was called Great railway travels of the world for BBC TV.
DeleteI still say the best one is "Around the World in 80 days". BBC captured lightning in a bottle there. "Pole to Pole" was also pretty good.
DeleteBet they did not do California.
DeleteBut then again maybe they did but the train was ambushed and they lost all their kit including the recordings.
#1 Thank you. It is rare that I laugh out loud and cannot stop. That was hilarious.
ReplyDeleteWound up like an eight-day clock.
Delete#1 makes you wonder why the cat is wearing that cone collar - maybe it should have a fully padded suit on.
ReplyDeleteI've never seen a cone worn upside down.
Delete#3- Looks like the front end and the rear end are having communication problems-
ReplyDelete#6- Discount Funerals-R-Us?
Hope they're not going too far

10 - Were they filled with hydrogen or what?
ReplyDeleteI think so, that's common overseas. Helium is expensive, hydrogen is cheap and easy to make.

ReplyDeleteUnlawful if you get caught. Just sayin.
DeleteSpring/air piston, pellet guns are very quiet.
Delete#2): Who looks at a narrow curvy path between two buildings and says, "This would be an absolute genius place to lay a rail line?"
ReplyDeleteI'll bet the rail line was there and the masses built right up to it.
Delete# 5. Nice catch

#1 I think that cat is drugged. Recovery from surgery, spacing out, gets bonked on the head, freaks out.
ReplyDeleteSounds like a bad trip to me, dude.
