    A Little Humor For The Day

    My shipmate (back in 1972) was so proud of himself when he came up with his own riddle: Q: "Why are turds tapered?" A: "So your a$$hole doesn't slam shut!"

    Can We Talk About Water Glass (Sodium Silicate)?

    It's also a good reason to wear a mask or two when your area is currently receiving Volcanic Ash fallout from upwind. A large percentage of volcanic ash turns out to be nearly-powdered volcanic glass. Extremely sharp edges! Change your vehicle air-cleaner often too, and for the same reason...

    Why I'm Beginning To Dislike Straight Pipes

    Only two of my pipes do this, but they have a problem with the tar juices coming up the stem and ending up on the end of the bit. Really nasty when my tongue accidentally touches the bit and comes away with this liquid. These pipes are both straight.

These guys called themselves the "Zouaves" and it didn't...

    Having never been either a Shriner nor Matt Smith who had a fez practically as his signature when played The Doctor for the BBC, I've never worn a fez in my life. That doesn't mean I would refuse to.

    Movies with Pipe Smoking Scenes

    It seems to have become a cliché in Japanese manga and anime that often (not always) when the good guys decide to spy on the bad guys (or on their friends' budding romance) that a short shot of them appears with them all in deerstalker caps and holding a pipe.

    Pipe Sighting at the Movies

    Recently ran across "War of the Satellites" on YouTube. I only saw one character (the main character, I think) smoking a pipe, but the extremely bad (and unnecessarily stupid) writing put me off so I closed the tab about 15 minutes into the grade Z movie.

    So Maybe Pizza Originated in Pompeii?

    Until the Spanish conquistadors brought tomatoes back to Europe from the New World, the only relative of the tomato they had available is the very poisonous Belladonna plant.
