Angola is probably the country with the biggest land area that does not have a UNESCO World Heritage site.

I've had 4 calls at work from different people named Richard. That's a lot of Dick I am getting.

I had raw tomatoes today.

That is evil!

I bought new pants today.

Hence I must ask forgiveness.

Today is the 98th anniversary of the Boston Molasses Flood.

I laughed the first time I heard about it too. But 21 people died and many more were injured.

In reading about the flood, the giant tank holding the molasses leaked right from the start. The company that owned the tank "solved" the problem by painting the tank brown.

Here is a link to more info and pictures

Slovakia has the largest number of castles and chateaux per capita of any country in the world.

M'zab Valley..Algeria... pretty.

If I were to kill a murderer, there would be the same number of murderers left in the world.

Dumplings are love.

Congrats half a Time Trapper!

Do I get half my robes, preferably the bottom half?

In the spirit of random. I had no breakfast today

The Emerald City of Oz by Lyman Frank Baum
Chapter 26

"That water," declared Ozma, gravely, "is the most dangerous thing in all the Land of Oz. It is the Water of Oblivion. Whoever drinks at the Forbidden Fountain at once forgets everything he has ever known. It is said that once--long, long ago--a wicked King ruled Oz, and made himself and all is people very miserable and unhappy. So Glinda, the Good Sorceress, placed this fountain here, and the King drank of its water and forgot all his wickedness. His mind became innocent and vacant, and when he learned the things of life again they were all good things. But the people remembered how wicked their King had been, and were still afraid of him. Therefore, he made them all drink of the Water of Oblivion and forget everything they had known, so that they became as simple and innocent as their King. After that, they all grew wise together, and their wisdom was good, so that peace and happiness reigned in the land."

(In case you did not think Glinda was creepy enough.)

I wonder if Invisible Brainiac is in the district that Manny Pacquiao is running in.

Thank heavens no. I just hope this guy does not win a Senatorial seat. That, sadly, is decided nationwide... but that could be good.

Sadly, while many Filipinos are liberal, many also agree with Manny's views.

Ok random. My dog bit my finger. She got too excited when I gave out treats.

My dog doesn't like me.

Scooby-doo has had a few relatives on the shows over the years, besides Scrappy.

So today at work we were having a going away breakfast for an employee. It was held in the 1st floor conference room, which has a separate entry (albeit down a long hallway) In the middle of the breakfast as other co-workers were coming in, a homeless man followed them in. He got a plate full of grapes and poured himself some coffee. He ate some of the grapes, did not drink any of the coffee, asked a couple of people for $2, and left.
