There is no other way of describing this other than to say that it looks like a very small sheep is balancing carefully on a wooden pole.

There was another exciting aspect to our hike today.

For years I believed that the Tiny Balancing Sheep breed was just a myth, as I've done so many walks and hikes through the British countryside and never seen one.

But reader, I was mistaken. And I have proof.

It's nice out here tonight.

A Nokia 81104g, successor to the one used in the movie. Still works to reach the Nebuchadnezzar.

Tank, I need an exit.

Closeup of a grey Siberian cat (Knold) standing on some rocks at the catio fence. A wicker basket is lying in front of him. The sunlight is shining on his back, highlighting his impressive floof. His tail is raised as he is examining the area and the smells. His tongue is out, licking his nose.

Closeup of a grey Siberian cat (Knold) sitting under a deck chair on the catio with his front towards the camera (on a mat, naturally, he's not a plebe.) The sun is shining on the left and lower part of his body, while his head is in shadow from the chair. He is very fluffy, especially his large, majestic mane.

Spring seems to be here, and Knold is all for it

I got an unironic report that an account has a bad aura. Now I’m not going to discount the possibility of this being true, but I’m curious how to measure whether an account’s aura has strayed too far from a good baseline aura.

Imagine all the cool, fast trains we could have with the billions we spend on bombs.

Ollie North's mugshot from his arrest related to the Iran-Contra Affair

Ollie North on Fox "news", a few decades after Iran-Contra

The guy on the left was a US Marine Lt. Colonel who was arrested and convicted for selling missiles to Iran.

The guy on the right is a Fox "news" *snicker* "military analyst" who says Iran shouldn't have missiles.

They're the same guy.

Breaking news: Max Headroom, one of the greatest TV shows ever made, is free on Tubi.

@wesley83 As my dad would say, you always pay the dealership more than you would pay the mechanic. Since you can get a gently used Pixel 9 off of eBay for $300, I would understand the impulse, though.

@wesley83 Yeesh! Is it just the protective bit on the outside? If so, I wonder what someone like uBreakIFix would charge to replace a piece of clear plastic.
