If I win the lottery I won't tell anyone, but there will be signs

If Donald Trump = Mr Burns then Canada = Don Mattingly and fentanyl = sideburns.

An old favourite dug out of the archives. Over 10 years old now but I still like it.

A stroll around Loughrigg Tarn after a winter walk on Loughrigg; this was at the end of the day as the light faded and we were down at the dege of the water.

That is a rough start to a day. My sympathies.

Biggest insider trading market manipulation scheme in history.

They aren't even bothering to hide it.

This picture of these two national symbols represents a conflict a vast majority of Canadians and many Americans do not want and wish had never started. To our American friends: know trust will not come easily again. To my fellow Canadians: Stand Tall, Elbows Up! We will get through this together.

In the end, the bald eagle wins this hypothetical confrontation pretty much every time. But the Canadian "cobra-chicken" is likely to cause a lot of reason for regret in the process.

The bald eagle is a skilled and opportunistic solo hunter. The Canada goose is one of the bird world's most aggressive combatants when encroached upon and yet travels in large co-operative groups.

The Canada goose is slightly more dense due to its smaller size. The bald eagle has more lift and is significantly better armed.

The Canada goose and the bald eagle weigh about the same at 5Kg average across both sexes.

A historical illustration depicting Jacques de Molay, the last Grand Master of the Knights Templar, being burned at the stake in Paris on March 18, 1314. He stands defiantly in his Templar robe, bearing the red cross, as flames rise around him. A crowd of onlookers, including nobles, clergymen, and commoners, watches the execution in front of the gothic architecture of Notre Dame. Some figures appear sorrowful, while others look indifferent or hostile.

Today marks the anniversary of the execution of Jacques de Molay, the last Grand Master of the Knights Templar, who was burned at the stake in front of Notre Dame on March 18, 1314. 🪬🧿
