Looking into a well will reveal lots of potential.
Many years ago I worked at the Kennedy Space Center, in the Launch Control Center right next to the Vehicle Assembly Building (VAB). It was during the period after Apollo moon shots, and before the Shuttle was active, most of the VAB was empty and security was lax. During lunchtimes I would wander the VAB. Most areas had guard rails at the edge of the concrete floors that overlooked the 42 story tall areas where the Saturn rockets were assembled, but above the 35th floor there were no guard rails, just flat empty floors. I stood at the edge of one of those floors looking down at a 4-engined airplane on the floor below and it looked like a toy. For a brief moment I thought about jumping but realized I had too much potential.
LOL. I am not sure they are not dolphins, come to think about it. But I've never seen them go swimming, and I've only seen them eat salmon once. So I'm doubtful. More likely they are aliens that grew from little alien seeds and now they are spreading across the PNW in search of tech jobs (for the brains) and IPAs (to wash down the brains). I will get a gorilla costume in case this comes up again.
Complaint: I just discovered a flavored sparkling water that actually tastes good no metalic bite like seltzer waters ,no artificial sweetner after taste ,a nice flavor ,not the tiny hint of flavor that only appears if you inhale after taking a sip. Then I start getting a headache ,check the label ,which I should have done before ,and find there is aspartame in it .......crap and it was soooo good ,now I get to decide if the side effects are gonna be worth drinking it ......ugh!!
the steering wheel is on the wrong side of the car
well, mebbe not the 'wrong' side, but feels wrong somehow
...loved that series,
Would love a 3D set of that 60s styled flat in the B&W clip
what does HLA mean? https://www.daz3d.com/hla-book
watching Danny Phantom. is interesting. and has a catchy beat.
I can't find anything about "HLA" that isn't related to leukemia. It doesn't seem like a vendor prefix either.
Human. Though the thought of going Champagne Supernova doesn't sound that bad. Any Oasis in a solar storm.
Happy Little Accident. Did you ever watch any Bob Ross Show?
Not the same, but the other day I was at the grocery store with my daughter and she saw some bottles of Kombucha and asked what is it... Although I'd never gotten around to trying it, I vaguely recalled it was something like slightly effervescent tea that may or may not be fermented... as far as I know, it's not alcoholic, so since she likes tea I told her to try one... she bought a raspberry flavored one... all organic, hoity-toity 100% vegan (is there ham tea?).
Later on when we got home she decided to have it with dinner... she took a mouthful and ran out of the room... being that she is a lot like me and will pretty much keep eating something nasty just to deconstruct the the experience and determine what exactly is gross or poisonous about the thing, I was curious what happened and took a sniff of the bottle... it smelled like a janitor's mop in a preschool... but I was like... noo... that can't possibly taste as bad as it smells... and I was right... it actually tasted worse, plus it was fizzy... so basically fizzy preschool barf bucket mop water.
I actually spit it out... and drinking something nasty is point of pride... maybe it's toxic masculinity or stubbornness or my determination not to react to nasty tastes should I offend someone's offer of a questionable smelling concoction... I'll always drink it and manage to look like it was good.
I've eaten and drank many nasty things in my life, from unusual exotic fare to creatures you don't normally think of as food and that was instantly on the top of my "Never Ever Effing Ever Again" list.
Just writing about it two days later and I can recall the taste... Gah!
Maybe we bought a bad one, maybe not all Kombucha tastes like that, but that was a permanent deal breaker.
But yeah... if metallic bite is a dealbreaker, then just consider the above before trying Kombucha.
Sorry to any kombucha lovers out there.
Or drink Bob Ross Positive Energy Drink?... I'm not sure why I took a picture of this, but I found the picture the other day on my phone and this reminded me...
Maybe because I wanted to remind myself that Bob Ross Positive Energy Drink is what goes best with Bacon & Cheese crickets?
is he the 'happy' trees dude?
Where do you find this stuff?
Dana
another day, no sale items in my wishlist again. they not even trying to take my money, lol
my wallet needs the breather.
you ever like, feel hungry but not for anything you has in the fridge?
theres a helicopter outside, sounds like its flying in cirles or figure 8s, cuz the noise keeps coming back. searching for a fugitive? somewhere Tommy lee jones giving his search speech, ... every outhouse, hen house
Shhh... it's our little secret... but yes.
remember Jolly Rogers?
used to go there when i was a kid. hot dogs on a stick.
and adventure land. not to be confused with great adventure
I think it was at a fancy candy store at an outlet mall near here... if it was, I probably went there looking for Uncle Oinker's (savoy) Bacon Mints...
They are actually kinda good... weirdly addictive sometimes.
So many strange things!
Artificially flavored? Bacon itself isn't bad enough for us?
(savoy)? Savoy Brown?
Dana
May the 4th be with you!

I don't know Jolly Rodgers... unless that's the restaurant near Happyland which was in Bethpage...? Thats long gone...
Splish-Splash (Riverhead) and Adventureland (Rt. 110) are still around... Long Island's only remaining amusement parks (not counting Brooklyn's Coney Island which is NYC, but still Long Island.
Also long gone... Adventure's Inn (Whitestone/Flushing) and Rockaway's Playland (Rockaway)... and Palisades Playland in Fort Lee NJ... not a Long Island institution, but inescapable because of the commercials with the funky theme music...
All from back before going to an amusement park was a major investment... Adventureland is still kinda affordable, but it's mostly kiddy rides... Splish-Splash is crowded and expensive... and the Urine Wavepool is kinda nasty...
There is one place that lurks in the furthest corner of my memory... a burger joint in Setauket off of Rt 347 (aka Nesconset highway)... it was a geodesic dome building called "The Asteroid"... it was basically space age themed with styrofoam planets and asteroids hanging from the ceiling... I can't find any info on that place or anyone who remembers it... it was kinda popular in the late 60s to early 70s... I think there is a Kohls or some strip mall there now.
i dont remember Asteroid.
we used to go to Jan's fpr tje giant kitchen sink ice cream, after skating. the roller rinks all gone.
Cantiaque ice rink is still open.
I almost remember Jolly Rogers, but not sure I ever entered one. But I know I went to Long John Silvers, mmmm... grease! At one time LJS was rated to have the worst (most unhealthy) food in the genre. Yay, for overachievers.
Complaint: Three months ago in the middle of winter, I had my neighbor help pull heavy boxes out of my cramped attic crawlspace. They were just pulled into my bedroom and piled higgledy-piggledy. There they sat for many moons staring at me and taunting me to finally start organizing them as was my original plan. Today, finally, I was bored enough to go back upstairs in the middle of the day (a trip not often made), and start playing musical floor space with those boxes. I've managed to arrange them neatly with things I most probably will need to access soon easily available. I also threw out a few things. Yay, I'm not a hoarder. But in the process I wore out my knees, ankles, hips, and back and created enough sweat to water a salt loving garden. Owwie, and yuck.
Non-complaint: The driving force behind this uncharacteristic behavior of mine was the need to be able to reach my air-conditioner sitting on the floor in front of the window it's suppose to occupy. Now I can call the neighbor over again to help lift the beast back into place. It's that time of year. Humidity today is 50% and temperature in the house is 73F. Fans are doing OK as long as I sit in front of them with my shirt off, chillin' and creating a crust of salt on my skin.
'Nother non-complaint: In one of the boxes I found my old documents that I wrote for work. And old books about ancient computer languages and programs and protocols. (some of them signed by the authors) And my collection of slide rules.
Apparently Long John Silvers is still in business somehow... although most of their locations are gone.
I'm pretty sure it's the inspiration behind Sponge Bob's Crusty Crab.
