Absolutely Beautiful - Bubbles. Beach. Music.

As I saw it written - All the adults are taking pictures and video to experience all this later, rather than now. The children are enjoying the moment in its entirety.
Gulp!

My Rusty eats human food like this. No, he couldn't eat a Taco Bell bean burrito in 1 second, but it would only take him about 3. If it fits in his mouth, it's down in a second. Whenever I give him a bone - a real bone from a rack of ribs or something - it's gone in less than 30 seconds. And those dental chew things? About 10 seconds. Crazy dog.
This Angers Me

Yeah it's a year-and-a-half old. And yes it's a medical facility. I doubt most companies would consider such a move, but the fact that any do - angers me. What's next? Will they start screening resumes for too much soda? Being overweight?
I once applied for a summer job at a park during college. They mentioned to me on the way out, "ohh and you won't be able to wear that earring - IF they decide to hire you."
I left having no intention to follow-up, as I'm sure they watched me leaving having no intention to follow-up. That was 1990 - I was 19. It was the first job I sought during college. It was also the only time I've ever been to a job interview with my earring in. Of course I know better now that I try to find something better than a $7 per hour thing at a park as a teenager, but the fact remains the same:
How far will companies go?
The Girl From 4E
"Like a good neighbor, State Farm is there..""Hey Dave"
"Wow"
"Is that your agent"
"It's the jingle.. try it!"
"Uhh no"
"Like a good neighbor..."
"Just say it"
"State Farm is, is there.."
"..With a sandwich"
"Ohhh yeah"
"And the girl from 4E?"
"And can I get a . . .
Wait a minute. You know the jingle, and you know the commercial. But the girl from 4E? The girl from 4E is none other than actress Holly Lynch.
Here is her profile at Internet Movie Database (imdb.com).Here is her Wiki page.
And here is her official website.
And in case you don't want all that, and just want more pictures, I've got that too - a good set from The Chive.

USA Slave Population Distribution 1861
This map, showing “the distribution of the slave population of the southern states and the United States,” was created in September 1861 based on statistics from the eighth Census. Says the NOAA:
“President Lincoln frequently consulted this map in considering the relationship between emancipation and military strategy… Lincoln would look at the map and send his armies to free blacks in some of the highest density areas in order to destabilize Southern order. The Emancipation Proclamation became law on Jan. 1, 1863.”

I'm Lost For Words

Okay that didn't last long.
I don't know what's worse of the three: The girl who got caught on camera doing this.. The dudes who are taking pictures and probably video as well (and busted on camera doing so).. or the guy taking a leak, who was captured for the whole world to see that he is obviously very gay!
