The Philosophical Ostrich Strikes Again!

Duck Brand chocolate only seems to exist in my imagination at this point in time, however, here is a picture of a very enticing looking chocolate duck from Lilybanks Confectionery.

I seem to be posting later and later--this is largely due to the amount of time I'm spending tinkering with my website, trying to get it stabilized so that pieces of it don't go flying off into the ether when different browsers attack it.

This should solve the problem, a handy 88mm anti-aircraft gun.

A Mother's Work is Never Done

Speaking of monsters, here from Coolest Birthday Cakes are recipes for and pictures of monster truck cakes. I think they're built to scale, not life size, unfortunately, however you know the old adage--if it's there, eat it! Besides, the smaller the cake, the more cakes you can eat.
I suppose some people will say that I don't have a healthy attitude--I should be eating Mediterranean style food, in moderate quantities.
Okay. I'll put an olive on my next piece of cake.

The Blue Jays just offered Ricky Romero $30 million for five years of his time. That's more money than a philosopher makes. But not as much as the $175 million that Iconix Brand Group Inc. is paying for Charlie Brown, Snoopy and the gang, and Charlie Brown stopped playing baseball some time ago.
Charles Schulz left a gaping hole in the universe when he went away.
I'm pretty sure Snoopy never ate a Mediterranean diet; I seem to remember he was fond of ice cream and cookies.

I'm sure many of you have spent long hours wondering how you go about towing a tank that has broken down. Well here, from the George S. Patton Museum, courtesy of Wikipedia, is a picture of a tank-towing device.

So never park your tank in a no-parking zone.

It's Sunday. Yesterday is gone.
Where, exactly, did it go?
