"Witch" doesn't necessarily mean a crone with warts, a pointy hat, and a flying broom.

Too be or not too be, ballerina dogs wear to-tos two.

Nights In White Satin still wrenches my heart for love lost, after 53 years.

"Mechanic" ain't what it used to was.

From my perspective, there seem to be problems all over the web cropping up. Sites that have no history of slow-or-never-to-load all of a sudden becoming unusable...stuff like that. But a lot is intermittent. If I were a card-carrying conspiracy theory kinda guy, I might think some of it was intentional. But of course that couldn't possibly be. https://industrialcyber.co/critical-infrastructure/china-linked-hackers-allegedly-target-us-internet-services-in-salt-typhoon-attack/

It just never stops...

"Penny wise and pound foolish" describes a particular kind of financial illogic.

Exciting pastimes like making sculptures from dryer lint pale in comparison to collecting, cataloguing, and mounting navel fuzz. https://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/newstopics/howaboutthat/8084594/Librarian-collects-26-years-of-belly-button-fluff.html

Table tennis would be more interesting played with basketballs.

Impala legs on a chimp would look pretty silly.

Besides the stunning quality of the work, the how-to info is very much appreciated. Wonderful stuff. PS: Are you going to be at the ACME meeting this coming Saturday?

Hanging so bad this AM 11:30 EDT as to be virtually unusable. Photos extremely slow to load, if at all, generally unresponsive, and sometimes the site won't open from a browser. But it's intermittent, as I was able to get in just now through Firefox, while I got timed-out repeatedly on Chrome. PS: it locked up on Firefox, but I was able to get back in on Chrome to re-post this here...

Speak for yourself.

Alabama has some beautiful places.

It probably went past its "best if used by" date, and everyone threw it out.

I (and others) had similar issues years ago, and the solution at that time was to compose the text in Word and copy/paste into the post.

I was in the grocery store last night, and it looked like the TP-hoarding has started again. Because of the dockworkers' strike? Geez. You really can't fix stupid...or even reason with it.

Bentley S1 Continental... ...especially the R-type.

Do what you like, but you can't tell if an engine is a 454, a 427, a 396, or a 572 by looking at the outside. I'm building a real '66 Chevelle with a 572 right now, and if someone wasn't told it was a 572, they wouldn't know if it was any of those engines.

More Google AI misinfo: The main differences between the Chevy 572 and 427 blocks are that the 572 is a big-block engine, while the 427 is a small-block engine: Engine type: The 572 is a big-block engine, while the 427 is a small-block engine.

Eckchooally...the Chevy 572 looks pretty much like the familiar 396, 427, and 454 externally. The displacement differences are internal. IIRC, with appropriate valve covers, intake and exhaust manifolds, and other minor detail differences, any Chevy "big block" in the family (not "W" 348/409 engines) can pass for any other up through generation VI in 1/25 scale (excluding the ZZ632, which has evenly spaced intake ports and very different cylinder heads).

So many beautiful cars. So little time.

Date palms aren't native to the Great Frozen North.
