I thought Gene Wilder was a very funny man. I think his role in Blazing Saddles was my favorite. He will certainly be missed.

Artificial intelligence or not, this competition still depends on one or more programmers’ idea of beauty.

I think it is so sad that there is no spot on Earth where humans have not left their garbage.

Even worse than doing this to a cat is not realizing that something is wrong with it until it almost dies.

Too bad most adults can’t be this easily amused.

One, or, perhaps, both of these people should have paid more attention to what they were doing. Whatever happened to “Caution” tape? A lot of people would also have noticed the large piece of machinery sitting in the street and looked around.
I’m starting to think that these decorating fails are mostly staged. Because how many brain dead decorators can there be out there?
Then, again, there seems to be a lot of people on the loose that should really know better. This is a man who must be desperate for attention. Why anyone would choose to immerse themselves in hot sauce is beyond me. Totally not impressed.
I would have thought that at least trained professionals would be immune.
In light of that Earthlike planet recently discovered around the nearby star, I have seen a few posts wondering what kind of vegetation, if any, it might have. After looking at the strange plant life which grows on the island of Socotra, right here on Earth, the possibilities are endless.

A radio signal that is unlikely to be naturally created has been detected coming from a distant star system.

Either some people have very short memories, or new people are caught by this hoax every year. But there is absolutely NO WAY that Mars can appear as large as the Moon in our night sky.

The Soviet desperation to beat America in the race to the Moon cost at least one man his life.

This is only a concept, right now, but I hope it comes to be a real thing. I think it would be very cool to have a sub on Titan.

I should have realized that it will take a few weeks for the new high resolution photos of Jupiter to arrive at Earth. For now, we will have to be satisfied with this low res teaser, received by NASA on Saturday.
I watched most every episode of the TV show Ice Road Truckers, and thought it was a pretty good program, as reality TV goes. I was sad to hear of the death of one of the cast.

This is going to be expensive. I think most places have very large fines for starting wildfires. How drunk does someone have to be to not realize (or care) that they are driving on the rim, with no tire?

Shirley Muldowney, the first successful female professional drag racer, in the ’70’s.
An admirable attempt to avoid the unfortunate ending. It was sooo close.
One of my first bosses owned two of these old Lincoln convertibles. Nice cars.

A young male virgin, a shy college freshman, was lucky enough to have a roommate who was considerably more experienced with the opposite sex. When the bashful boy broke down and explained his predicament, his roommate offered to set him up with the campus floozy. “Just take her out to dinner and a show, and then let nature take its course,” he explained. “This girl really knows where to go from there.” The roommate arranged the date as promised, and the freshman took the coed out for a delightful evening of dining and dancing. On the way home, he parked his car in a dark lane, broke out in shakes and a cold sweat and blurted out: ” I sure would like to have a little pussy.” “I would, too,” the girl replied. “Mine’s as big as a trash can.”
When I was a child, I remember my mom telling me, “Son, when you grow up, you can marry any girl you please.” When I became a young man, I learned the sad fact was that I could not please any of them.

Q: How do you make 5 pounds of fat look good?
A: Put a nipple on it.
A young man asked an old rich man how he made his fortune. The old guy fingered his worsted wool vest and said, “Well, son, it was 1932, the depth of the Great Depression. I was down to my last nickel. I invested that nickel in an apple. I spent the entire day polishing the apple and, at the end of the day, I sold the apple for ten cents. The next morning, I invested those ten cents in two apples. I spent the entire day polishing them and sold them at 5:00 pm for 20 cents. I continued this system for a month, by the end of which I’d accumulated a fortune of $1.37. Then my wife’s father died and left us two million dollars.”
What’s the difference between being hard up, and down and out?

Three old guys from the twilight home were given, as a treat, a day at the beach. And it turned out to be a nudist beach. They were watching the various young women with fascination. When the prettiest of them all walked by, one of the men said, “I’d like to give her a hug.” “I’d like to give her a kiss,” said the second man. And the third old man said, “What was that other thing we used to do?”
