Tigers love to swim.
But the tom-cat with that name of a neighbor in our former neighborhood didn’t: That cat loved to visit us and entered our ground-floor living-room once complaining loudly – soaking wet and covered in lemna.
I couldn’t help laughing and – after toweling him semi-dry – followed his traces (puddles and lemna) around the outside of our house to our artificial pond where it was clearly visible what had happened: There was a “hole” like above where the birds used to take a bath…
There are sites saying this was painted by an artificial intelligence, others that it’s vintage oil on canvas (no artist credited that I could find).
Remember, artificial intelligence is just that, artificial.
That means its programming can’t be any brighter than the human that wrote the program.
A housefly has more original thought.
That child should be potty-trained by the looks of them.
And any “adult” risking breaking that dog’s neck/spine while documenting that? – Shame on them!!!
I agree that a child should not be standing on a basset hound!
At least it’s on the dog’s shoulders, which is the strongest part, but still, they have weak spines, due to their length and weight, and are prone to displasia.
I knew one who couldn’t go up or down stairs, much less carry anything on his back…
Seeing a trained bird there makes me think this was posed. I have a photo I took out my back door of a hawk and a squirrel sitting at opposite ends of a small section of fence. The squirrel looked quite comfortable knowing the hawk can’t attack without an altitude advantage. .
It’s partly the librarian’s fault. By asking him, even sarcastically, if he wanted to supersize it, she only reinforced his old-guy delusion that he was at a fast food joint.
Today’s Songs:
‘Lonesome Mary,’ ‘Long Cool Woman in a Black Dress,’ ‘Love Hurts,’ and ‘Lorelei,’ and the ‘Cheap Thrills Cuisine’ recipe ‘Asparagus Tempura.’
Despite its name, ‘Chilliwack’ is a Vancouver band (formed in 1970). With changed membership, the band is still active.
I’ve put in a link at the bottom to the lyrics of ‘Long Cool Woman…’.
I only like Roy Orbison’s interpretation, not the original ‘Everly Brothers’, and definitely not ‘Nazareth’s’.
Styx was formed in Chicago in 1972.
Asparagus is now over.
It might sound expensive by the Kg, or for a jar of almost nothing but sugar, but it’s a treat, and nobody eats it by the Kg.
It’s very light and fluffy, so you get a big jar for the weight.
198g is the same weight as the 7oz jar I bought to try, which I keep forgetting to open. (There was something I wanted to make with it, but I’ve forgotten what.)
Mine was on sale for US $1.79, less than $8 /Kg, so you may find a better price, but even if not, it’s larger than my 18oz jar of peanut butter, and bigger than 8oz of marshmallows, because it’s so whipped up.
…
I haven’t had it in many years, but as Happy³ says, it tastes like marshmallows…. because that’s what it is.
But it’s whipped into a soft, poofy, sticky cloud, so it feels different, and a little goes a long way.
I know how much you like sugar, so maybe for you it won’t be a lifetime supply… But you can still stop after one jar and never worry about spending the other $14.

My mother used to make a quick chocolate fudge by mixing it with melted chocolate chips… a recipe from one of the packages.
Didn’t have the texture of real fudge, but we liked it, with no boiling, or thermometer, or testing for the proper soft ball stage, and there were no failed batches.
.
Kinda ruins the camouflage.

I think they have a pact between them. They each display their weaponry side-by-side, and dare you to mess with them.
Branch manager and his wingman.
It’s the biggest branch in the territory, so his position carries a lot of weight.
He has even managed to have his assistant given a seat on the board.
They’re lucky to have talont like that available to them.

For a skeleton, that ghost top left is quite buxom.
Must of had implants when alive.
So implants go to the afterlife, too?
They don’t biodegrade, so probably yeah. Either that or most ghosts don’t have any teeth either.

One wonders how much time, over how many visits, it took Mr. Booth to draw this.
His illustrations were well known, 100 years ago, for their incredible detail, and often soaring backgrounds.
He was right up there with the most famous illustrators of the early 20th century. I don’t know why he seems almost forgotten today.
each image represents a horror/sci-fi movie
perhaps someone can track down a readable version of the answers…
Row 1: Phantom of the Opera, Robot Monster, Jason Voorhees, Metaluna Mutant, Nosferatu, Norman Bates, Audrey II
Row 2: Ants from “Them”, Martian Mutant, The Fly, Black Sabbath, Bride of Frankenstein, Vincent Price, Monolith Monsters
Row 3: Dracula’ Saucer Men, The Invisible Man, King Kong, The Mummy, The Blob, Frankenstein’s Monster
Row 4: The Thing, Gort, Brainiac, Creature from the Black Lagoon, The Wolf Man, Stripe, Piranha
Row 5: The Cryptkeeper, Leatherface, Igor, Martian, Scream, Michael Jackson (Thriller?), Slimer
Row 6: Jack Torrance, The Mole People, Medusa, Samara, Pennywise, Chucky, Godzilla
Row 7: Edward C. Burke, Beetlejuice, The Thing, Freddy Krueger, Pinhead, Tarantula, Michael Myers
There’s a mix between characters and the actors that played them.
I wonder why The Thing is there twice.
If it isn’t one thing, it’s another.
LOL!
Wow!
Here you are:
Just click on it.
Make mine malted.

She’s GOTTA get a little fun out of it.
Claude should order some pure apple-juice diluted with water, too…

I have no idea what that stuff tastes like, and at $17.60 a kg. I’m not going to find out anytime soon.
Hint: You don’t need one kilogram…
It’s way too sweet. I’d prefer P&J. Or anything hearty with the PB.
The jar is only 198 grams; at $3.49 that works out (to ten decimal places / truncated) to $17.6262626262 per kilogram.
As I said.
It tases like marshmallow.
And, it tastes GREAT!!!

Correction… I looked at my jar, and saw that I’d forgotten it’s a “bonus” jar.
“3oz free!” …so it’s somewhat taller than a regular 7oz one, which might not be bigger than a peanut butter jar.
….
No matter, even $3.50 is still a relatively inexpensive treat and not worth fretting over. Especially those millionths of a cent.
Don’t you spend that much on one beer?
There no guarantee that you’ll like it as much, but you’ll probably enjoy it, and it lasts way longer.
….
LOL…. Edited later… I could have just looked at the photo.
That’s a 7oz/198gm jar, I’m sure.
I hope buying your cheeseburgers at the library doesn’t mean you have to return them when you’re finished.
