Raquel Welch has left the building.

"She went tits up," as Dave, my old college roommate used to say, and if that's ever appropriate, surely it's here.

I saw "Fantastic Voyage" at the Paramount Theater in Seattle. It was 1966, and I was 11 years old.

I think it was the scene where they had to tear the tightening anti-bodies off Ms. Welch's glistening white wet suit.

I remember walking out of the theater with a pecker stain on my pants. Damn!! I better be careful. This thing is fully operational.

Rest In Peace, Raquel Welch.

The Paramount Theater is still there, active, and quite the destination.

“I may not be much, but I’m all I think about”

I don’t know who said that.

I can't believe that Raquel Welch was older than Biden.

One of my favorite movies as a kid was The Last of Sheila a murder mystery written by Stephen Sondheim and Anthony Perkins. Lots of great actors including Rachel Welsh. Her Wikipedia page contains the following quote: "I was not brought up to be a sex symbol, nor is it in my nature to be one. The fact that I became one is probably the loveliest, most glamorous and fortunate misunderstanding."
Sounds like she had a happy life. Rachel Welch RIP

Saw a black bear at the edge of our property this afternoon. About 100-ft from the house.

The Last of Sheila is a fun (if sometimes dark) movie. Raquel was quite good in it.

RIP, Raquel.

Well, I'm not sure (but you are) that that has anything to do with anything at all.

What do you expect from a McCain lover??

Is the Oracle of Omaha, that would be lefty Warren Buffet, still a major shareholder in the Norfolk Southern Railway? Mr. Anti-Pipeline. Hoping he joins the party in East Palestine, OH. Would love to his views on the wreckage of a small town.

Humperdink म्हणाले...

Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene labelled Nikki Haley "Bush in heels". Funny.

I worked New Caledonia - just showed up on the shortwave band I leave playing in the background. FK8IK. I wonder where New Caledonia is. (googles) 8273 miles away in the South Pacific. Geography lesson. Unremarkable except my transmitter is only 15 watts.

Google map not immediately useful because it just shows island and water. Zooming out the first recognizeable landmark is Brisbane.

Other notable Norfolk Southern investors: "the Vanguard Group, Inc. as the top shareholder with 7.68%. BlackRock Fund Advisors and JPMorgan Investment Management tie at 4.54% as other top investors.

The Vanguard Group, through its affiliates and PAC’s, contributed 62.83% to all federal Democrat candidates during the 2020 election cycle and only 37.17% to all federal Republican candidates. It gave a total of $96,988 to Biden’s 2020 presidential campaign and just $7,547 to Trump’s 2020 presidential campaign.

Under JPMorgan Chase and Co., OpenSecrets reports that its affiliates and PACs contributed a total of $1,038,917 to Biden’s 2020 presidential campaign.

BlackRock, through its PACs and affiliates, gave to all federal Democrat candidates a total of 80.64% and only 19.36% to all federal Republican candidates. Regarding Biden, it gave $182,768 to the Biden 2020 presidential campaign.

I had a grandson born yesterday- finally was out of the womb via C-section.
My middle daughter got to hold him(she’s miscarrying). It was a juxtaposition.

Life.

Another Donald Trump success story -- not.

Losing both Senate seats in the January 2021 Georgia runoffs made it impossible for Senate Republicans to stop the Biden judicial train.

@Mike, a few years ago one came up on our deck and destroyed all three of our bird feeders. Taught me the hard way to bring the feeders in at dusk. I’m in Virginia’s Shenandoah Valley, about 100 miles west of Washington, DC.

Humperdink म्हणाले...

Pete Paul Montgomery Buttigieg, DOT Secretary, finally stepped up to the bar regarding the Norfolk Southern disaster. He blamed Trump in a tweet.

“We’re constrained by law on some areas of rail regulation (like the braking rule withdrawn by the Trump administration in 2018 because of a law passed by Congress in 2015), but we are using the powers we do have to keep people safe,” Buttigieg said."

Congratulations, farmgirl! Grandkids are hoot-filled blessings!

@farmgirl, last summer both daughters-in-law blessed us with the world’s handsomest, happiest, and most intelligent grandson in the known universe, and the world’s most beautiful and intelligent granddaughter, respectively. Welcome to the wonderful life of grandparenting! Isn’t it wonderful?

We have a bear-proof garbage can. It has a locking top that can be opened with a finger. We don't put the fill the container until the morning of the collection day, then put the container out on the street.

Our dog is never let out without being on the leash. She's all of 11-lbs. We're afraid she'll see a deer (they wonder in the forest behind our house, about 50-ft away). She's a cheweanie and she'd love to chase the deer. She'd probably get lost.

“I tried contacting our military and the FBI—and just got the runaround—to try to enlighten them on what a lot of these things probably are. And they’re going to look not too intelligent to be shooting them down,” says Ron Meadows, the founder of Scientific Balloon Solutions (SBS), a Silicon Valley company that makes purpose-built pico balloons for hobbyists, educators and scientists.

The descriptions of all three unidentified objects shot down Feb. 10-12 match the shapes, altitudes and payloads of the small pico balloons, which can usually be purchased for $12-180 each, depending on the type.

I wanted to be a bad-ass like him. Fortunately, things didn't work out that way!!
