Here's a word I haven't heard in almost two weeks...

 Biden. I haven't heard that word in almost two weeks. 
It's almost as if my hearing has approved...  
 
 Could you imagine how difficult Joe Biden's sign language interpreter's job must be? 
Word on the street is that 14 of them have quit the job (some complaining of  BIS - 
or 'brain implosion syndrome') since he took office. 
Two have been reported to have left the White House sobbing uncontrollably.
Juss' sayin'...

Did you ever see what 350 million years 
on Earth looks like?

The Stacks at Downpatrick Head date back 350 million years are made of limestones and shales.
The thin dark layers are shale formed by mud deposits, the medium layers are sandstones, while the white thick layers are limestones and made of seashells. Dun Bristle, the sea stack off Downpatrick Head, is a good example of this feature. The high cliffs were formed by the drift of the American continent against Europe as well the similar cliffs at Slieve League in Donegal.
Dún Briste (Gaelic for Broken Fort) was once joined to the mainland. The sea stack stands 45 metres (150 feet) tall.  Dun Briste and the surrounding cliffs were formed around 350 million years ago (during the ‘Lower Carboniferous Period’), when sea temperatures were much higher and the coastline at a greater distance away.

British tabloids were reporting yesterday that she's near death or some shit. 
Could this possibly be true? One can only hope and pray/ponder.

More than 6,300 airline flight delays and 670 cancelations 
happened on Thursday. I know - been there, done that...
 

Things could get more difficult as the Pete Judgeabooty's office and the Transportation Security Administration have 'come out' and said (that means somebody was heard mumbling) that Friday will be the busiest air travel day 'in the history of ever'.

The average time of a game in the first two-plus months of the season is 2hr 40min – a span not seen since the early 1980s – much shorter than the bloated averages of 3hr 6min in 2022 and 3hr 11min in 2021. But stats are only part of the story.
Two pitch clocks are mounted behind home plate and two above the center field fence to provide ballgames with a rhythm – and to get rid of all of that bullshit added time for, say, a hitter to step out of the batter’s box to readjust his gloves, or for a pitcher to stroll around the back of the mound scratching his balls and gobbing into his glove.
 

May well be the single greatest thing to happen in the history of shit happening, if ya get my drift.

Ever been to N'Orleans? It'sa pretty cool town - if ya stick to the French Quarter area. 
There is a shitload'a music pretty much literally on every street corner. Some of it pretty friggin' fanstastic. Some, not so much.
Back before the Covid shit hit the fan it was considered the world's most musical city. See if you can get through the paywall on this article: https://www.theguardian.com/cities/2019/may/02/which-is-the-worlds-most-musical-city

How BIG is that friggin' thing?

Perspective my friends, - it's very important. The small black dot in the upper left corner is the planet Mercury passing in front of the sun. Seems kinda small doesn't it? That's not the only perspective here. In this picture, the sun is said to be 36 million miles behind Mercury.

The rich ARE different - it's true. It's also true 
that some of 'em are pretty fuckin' stupid...

No matter how much I like to travel, it's always good to 
get home and sleep in my own bed. Juss' sayin'...

  1. Well, Mercury's (very eccentric) orbit is 28.6 to 43.4 million miles, so it's not surprising to find the sun 36 million miles behind it.
