The Brit's are a strange, but impressive lot.

The Art of Manliness makes the case for cold water shaving.

Don't show this to UT or Classicman.

They would demand references to the "The Science of Manliness",
the credentials of the author(s), and to know who really paid for the study.

Dismiss the rabble, I find this truth to be self evident.

Quote:

‘Only think of the inconvenience attending the common practice! There must be hot water; to have this there must be a fire, and, in some cases, a fire for that purpose alone; to have these, there must be a servant, or you must light a fire yourself. For the want of these, the job is put off until a later hour: this causes a stripping and another dressing bout: or, you go in a slovenly state all that day, and the next day the thing must be done, or cleanliness must be abandoned altogether….How many a piece of important business has failed from a short delay! And how many thousand of such delays daily proceed from this unworthy cause!’

Blade Runner model shop pictures. I had never seen these before. Star Wars gets all the attention, but just as much went into making Blade Runner. This is getting to be ancient history, over 30 years ago. 142 images you've probably never seen before.

A Whale Without A Tail

A gray whale spotted off Southern California appears to have to lost its tail, somehow.

It's doing fine, apparently. Short vid at the link.

Gentlemen, relax your sphincters.

Look at these pics of damaged B-17s that actually made it home.

If they still had most of two wings, propulsion, and a way to keep them right side up, they'd fly. Amazing.

Here's one story.

Reminds me of that movie, The Memphis Bell.

Funny but the writer of the story didn't know how to spell "Miraculously"
