"Live Leak" indeed! I'm just glad it wasn't the fat biker sitting on the curb in front of the bar masturbating like I saw in New Orleans.

I think we've sold all the weapons systems we can to our "allies". These are the leftovers. My understanding is these are basically moth-balled, not dumped. In theory, they could be resurrected if need be, like when Canada invades us. That's why they are sealed up and crucial components covered up.

I used to dream of visiting this place when I was an airplane nut as a kid. I can still name most of the planes from the Google maps image.

This place was also "featured" in some shots in Koyannisquatsi.

As someone who took 3 semesters of Spanish and know even less than this guy, I heartily Chortled Out Loud.

That's the first thing I noticed, too - how bored the boy looks. Like he's thinking, "Can we just get this over with so I can get back to my Xbox?"

Speed bumps are a real PITA. If I could just fly over them at 40mph, that would be great!

Mr.?

The "Use by" date on lol has long since passed. Get with the program, people!

Works at Starbucks - at least until his book sells enough copies...

Years ago, while browsing boxes of photos and documents at the National Archives, I came across a train ticket from a whistlestop tour that I believe Hitler made before the war. Whoever's ticket it was managed to get it signed by him. It's a very creepy feeling to hold something in your hand, even with a cotton glove on, that Hitler likely touched or held.

It still looks less stupid than those Bluetooth Uhura in-ear phone thingies.

If this is a smart, useful, professional-level image editing tool, I can assure you Adobe will have nothing to do with it.

They've barely updated their antiquated interface once in 15 years. At least this researcher will probably take home a fat paycheck.

Great. Another rich white guy has a transformative experience with a wild animal that looks cute, but will tear your face off at the drop of a hat. I think we can all relate to that.

Yes, world peace.

Some people look at vector art and ask, Why?

My son is going through his requisite pirate phase, so I've been learning a lot about pirates, both real and imaginary. The thought that keeps going through my head is, Why haven't more of these stories been made into movies? And I mean *real* pirate movies, not the comical Disney kind.

I'd like to see something along the lines of Master & Commander, but with pirates. These movies (any movie, for that matter) are notoriously expensive to make, but as digital effects get cheaper and faster to create, I hope they'll start to tell more of these stories.

Oh yeah, and pirates are better than ninjas.
