Switch on a cog railway = uses flamingos?
ReplyDeleteI-)
Switch on cog railway links to flamingo stomping.
ReplyDeleteI wonder what OSHA regs are with regard to hippo dentistry.
Is there a way to have the link for the gif itself, rather than the reddit page? All you really want to show is the gif, right? And the reddit pages don't always work.
ReplyDeleteSometimes I can link to the gif and sometimes I can't (I'm not particularly skilled at this). Sometimes the Reddit page has useful commentary, often it doesn't. Note when there is a message at the top that something has been removed, it may be just a comment rather than the gif, although the original posters do sometimes withdraw the gif.
DeleteCog railway link fixed. Tx for the heads-up.
ReplyDeleteThat first regional flag ... Chernobyl ?
ReplyDeleteIt has been 34 years, maybe the bears have taken over.
Zheleznogorsk. The identities are at the Radio Free Europe link I embedded.
DeleteThe burning pollen(?) made me think of both the Star Trek movie that had some sort of "Genesis bomb" and also the visuals of the whole Revelation thing where the old earth is destroyed by fire and a new earth replaces it.
ReplyDeleteHave you seen the video of the exploding whale in Oregon in 1970? They decided to use dynamite to turn it into whale chow for the gulls. There was actually a demo expert on site who told them they were using way too much dynamite, but who listens to experts? Much hilarity ensues. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xBgThvB_IDQ
ReplyDeleteYes. I blogged that back in 2009 -
