Happy Summer solstice to all :o) I live about 20 miles from this Texas version of "The Henge" ... and we've got a few Easter Island Statues thrown in for spice.

Well, gee, I don't have that, but how 'bout a picture of the results of a nuclear test on a blimb?


"On august 7, 1957, a U.S. Navy Blimp was pulled down by the
shock wave from a nuclear blast at the Nevada Test Site.
The blimp was in temporary free flight in excess of five miles
from ground zero when collapsed. Navy personnel on the ground
in the vicinity of the experimental area were unhurt."

What'd I do wrong?

Ugh! Bagpipes!

Like the oboe, a bagpipe is an ill wind that nobody blows good.

And if somebody chances to blow it good, the sound is horrible.

There! I said it. And I have Scotch ancestors.

"Boy, they're going to be kind of embarrassed if they find out Stonehenge was an early industrial/commerce center and had nothing to do with Gaea worship."

Better yet... they find out that Stonehenge was the first crude oil drilling rig.

Blimps and nuclear blasts don’t mix very well.

"Blimb"? Blimp?

That's an awesome photo! Curiously, the image filename indicates it's a Zeppelin (rigid structure) rather than a blimp (non-rigid structure), and the tailfins look (to my untrained eye) more like Zep fins than blimp fins.

But what do I know -- I can't even post a photo of an exploding drummer without the Admin Mods pulling it...

And .. AS USUAL .. all they left behind was their TRASH!

These people believe they’re the enlightened and should be ruling the world .. and they cannot even discipline themselves to not throw their trash on the ground.

Pathetic!

At least they are not dancing nude.

In fact they seem to be bundled up. Global Warming?

Nothing wrong with the item as such, just its source.

We’re not going to pay AP’s extortion fees
