It only has a population of 78, and it's dwindling fast. Soon won't be the capital of anything

Would BYD accept such an inexperienced partner in the auto industry as Apple, though?

Travelling with someone who has a GPS but refuses to use it for long-distance route guidance. They poke the map approximately where they're going, look at its suggestions, remember the roads, then poke it again further down the road. We have hit many slow cities and roadworks. Sigh

All clear at Camp Evans

Bomb squad called in, Camp Evans evacuated

Some little shite called in a threat to VCF East and the place got cleared by armed police

a low-angle shot of an wrecked open-bubble helicopter parked on a trailer by dilapidated buildings. The main rotor is folded back, and the plexiglass bubble is missing

I don't think that this Bell 47G-3B at Camp Evans could ever be classed as airworthy again ...

Up early for Joyce Weisbecker's talk at VCF East

It's 35° in Old Bridge NJ. They have these weird little green things sticking out the trees

I've been two or three times. It's amazing.

@robcruickshank.bsky.social would have a field day

Doing a Pecha Kucha was the best presentation training I ever did

Thus passeth away the very last can of Minute Maid frozen limeade concentrate i will ever have. I forgot to go back to the store when they still had a dozen or so left.

I use it a spoonful at a time with my homemade seltzer, but once this one's gone, that's it.

I am unreasonably sad about this

dammit, they went and cancelled frozen concentrated orange juice and I was not consulted

ah, we must be related somehow

oh yeah, Paladin. Creator of shit jokes. I think it was done on zero budget and the same roster of often low-budget cartoons

I would set up an outdoor speaker and reply with farting sounds

Glen Michaels Christmas Cavalcade 1983 Part 1 - Magnum Irvine YouTube video by 9panther

This is one of the few clips I can find of ours

I found a clip. Benny seems fairly chipper.

We had similar local shows since Central Scotland = probably about the same area as Greater Calgary

Bernd das Brot - Wikipedia

I'll supply the 1 kHz sine wave tone that was broadcast when channels were off the air.

It's a shame we didn't have a cartoon character of a depressed loaf of bread when the broadcasts stop, like Bernd das Brot — en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bernd_d...

which is the thing with the 60 day thing

I know, I know. He doesn't follow constitution.

within 60 days of initiating conflict, he must obtain Congressional approval

Don't they only have a couple of weeks or so before they have to get govt approval for military spending?

TIL that Gary Player is still alive

I mean, it's not called the Torygraph for nothing.

My parents were avid Telegraph readers, and the number of made-up scare stories from that rag that they believed was uncountable

I had pneumonia that was like that: had it for months without realizing what it was. It's not the sort of thing that clears up without a doctor visit and some genuinely amusing medication

RIP Asha Bhosle.

she truly sang some amazing Bollywood songs that even I, as someone who is not into Bollywood, appreciated and enjoyed. she had a joyful and playful vibe and, along with her sister Lata Mangeshkar, was and will continue to be the soundtrack to many South Asian lives.

Reading this with my lives-in-Toronto filter on: MacLean's tends to be conservative, pro-car. The anti-ebike delivery driver thing is pure racism, whipped up by the very people who create demand for food delivery services

the musical box noises at 2:07 when Reagan's head is open ...

there's a later album from the same ensemble: J.S. Bach Is Alive and Well and Doing His Thing on The Koto (1971)
