Surely this can’t be true. A lot of the commenters don’t believe it is.

Clint Eastwood is defending Trump, telling people to “just get over it. The kind of things he says weren’t considered racist when I grew up.” No, Clint, they weren’t. And black people were also routinely taken out and hanged by groups of armed men back then, too.

A lot of people (my opinion) completely overdo Christmas. Buying gifts for everyone you know is only one of the pointless reasons to start Christmas shopping in August. But don’t most stores wait until after Halloween to display Christmas merchandise?

Shouldn’t this be happening automatically, without a special order from our Prime Minister? I mean, one of the jobs of a police department is to investigate missing persons. Sad how native Canadians are treated as second class citizens. And proof that Canadians aren’t necessarily as nice as the rest of the world believes.

Jimmy Page, The Monkees, and Ann Moses, the Features Editor for Tiger Beat. “The Yardbirds were in Hollywood to perform at the Santa Monica Civic Auditorium on September 7, 1966. After our interview, Jimmy asked me if I could introduce them to the Monkees – the buzz was out on this new pop sensation.” via Ann’s Facebook page. She also mentions that the button she was wearing said “Fly high with the Yardbirds!”

The sun is about to swallow a comet. The doomed sungrazer appeared on Wednesday in images from the Solar and Heliospheric Observatory (SOHO) Kreutz sungrazers are fragments from the breakup of a single giant comet many centuries ago. They get their name from 19th century German astronomer Heinrich Kreutz, who studied them in detail. Kreutz fragments pass by the sun and disintegrate almost every day. Most, measuring less than a few meters across, are too small to see, but occasionally a bigger fragment like this one attracts attention. The comet is vaporizing furiously and is not expected to survive much longer. “This is one of the brightest Kreutz sungrazers we’ve seen over the past 21 yrs,” says Karl Battams of the Naval Research Lab in Washington DC. “Awesome! ”
UPDATE:
On Friday, the comet perished. It didn’t actually fall into the sun, but came too close to survive its trip around the star.

Imperia GP, 2009. An attempt to resurrect a Belgian marque which died in 1948, the GP is a hybrid-electric coupe designed by Belgian designer Denis Stevens. Their website suggests the GP would be in production by 2013 but it seems to still be in a “testing phase” I want to like this car, but the styling is just a little off. And I chose what I thought was the best looking of the models shown in the post to show here.
Rolls-Royce Wraith Black Badge. A high performance Rolls with a V-12 engine. All of the trim, including the hood ornament, has been blacked out. Rod like.
Nepali men carrying the Mercedes-Benz that Adolf Hitler gifted to King Truibhuvan of Nepal in 1940. It had to be carried to the capital by men as there were no drivable roads for the car leading to the city.
