    Pipe Sighting at the Movies

    I'm not quite sure that's what I saw in the last scene of The Man Who Shot Liberty Valance, but it seemed that Jimmy Stewart's character was about to light a pipe when the conductor interrupts him. His hand movements seemed different from when he lit cigars earlier in the movie, more like...

    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...

    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.
