Cat what looks like a duck

Almost 6 inches in the last week.

I'm old enough to remember hearing the Star Spangled Banner many mornings, back when the TV and Radio stations were off the air overnight.

Half an hour? That's what he said? Really? REALLY? Is there a place I can bet on that online? I'm thinking between 50 minutes and 2 weeks.

34 Felonies, and he gets a banner on the DOJ. Huh.

Back when I occasionally wrote for an in-house Tech Journal, my copy ran through an editor on staff. It was totally still my story, but it was as if my IQ was like 50% higher.

So, he's going to do it, right?

U.S. Customs and Border Protection: I'ma use this here laser. On that there very, very dangerous balloon. Right now, K?

FAA: Wait, what? No. No. Stop. NO. Oh, fork!
CLOSE EL PASO AIRSPACE FOR LIKE.. TWO WEEKS.

U.S. CBP: Pew Pew Pew

Current estimates are about 36 months.

I wonder if they had a sewer system engineer check to see of there was anywhere near enough capacity to house thousands of people there.

Yeah, I designed this.

Can it install a dryer?
Paint a bathroom?
Replace plumbing?

When that movie came out, I was working on the AV model computers at Apple, which shipped with "miserably bad" speech recognition.

These are strange times. Things will be better with more bonding.

I've visited back there, only to discover that what I seen now are short videos from people I've never followed, and posts from Musk, whom I followed back before he went crazy.
Bluesky is packed with usable news content in comparison.

Alien (1979)
I didn't have a TV at the time, so I'd not seen any ads, or have any idea of the movie at all. My big brother suggested we go, so on a steaming hot night in San Diego we went. The theater was over air conditioned, and at the end I was shivering in my seat. Best accidental special effect

A Comprehensive List of Every Woman Who Has Publicly Accused Donald J. Trump of Sexual Misconduct Other lists like this exist but I wanted to give it my nerdy bulleted list spin.

I pulled everything from this list from other sources but I’ve organized the alleged victims by the relationship Trump had with them. A jury of Trump’s peers found that Trump was liable for sexually abusing Carroll.

Way back when I was a kid, on the last day of yearly ice skating at the arena in my hometown, they invited people to bring records to play instead of the canned music. I brought Tapestry. They played the whole thing, and it was wonderful.

Want, please.

I recall that investigators found a safe loaded with home recorded DVDs.

YouTube video by NFL Bad Bunny's Apple Music Super Bowl Halftime Show

Bad Bunny's halftime show was added to YouTube with subtitles, in Spanish. I hope someone does an English subtitle version, I know it can't be a perfect translation, (no translation ever is) but I'd love to see it.

Some years ago we saw a skating show with Olympic athletes, and I can tell you that they are moving SO DAMN FAST compared to the swiveling camera views you see on TV.

I speak English, and a tiny bit of Japanese, and even less French, Spanish, and German. Bad Bunny fully speaks two languages, so he totally wins in that.
Oh, and only 40 to 60 million Americans speak enough Spanish to understand his lyrics. That's just 40 to 60 million more than "nobody".

I looked a bit later, and that B1-B was not used in the show, it headed off back east. Spare Plane? Maybe.
No one spoil the game for the crew, okay?

B1-B ready for the flyby

FAA has the SuperBowl sky covered.

If Jeff Bezos could afford to spend $75 million on the Melania movie & $500 million for a yacht to sail off to his $55 million wedding to give his wife a $5 million ring, please don't tell me he needed to fire one-third of the Washington Post staff.

Democracy dies in oligarchy.

No. You are SO WRONG. That was 12/10.

(It's a superb film!)
