In the Chelyabinsk military brought “warm weather”
In connection with the cooling of caring the military brought to Chelyabinsk whole body “warm weather.” The information published on the portal picabu.
In fact, the military truck was taken to the runway a huge load, shaped like a small “sun”, painted by a child or cartoon flowers Sunflower. It is not known what kind of load, but most likely in the photo shows the nozzle for cleaning of road transport. Why are engaged in military delivery is unknown. Just do not understand why it is necessary to deliver the goods to the first runway truck after dump on the road, and after apparently uploaded to military aircraft.
The portal pikabu photo caused a lot of comments and jokes related to the “delivery to the warm weather.”

From the Fun Facts to Know and Tell Department:
Americans say, “Van Go,” the Brits say, “Van Goff.” Neither pronunciation of Vincent Willem Van Gogh‘s surname is correct. In Dutch, it’s “von khakh,” with “kh” as a guttural [ˈvɪnsɛnt ˈʋɪləm vɑn ˈɣɔx] but if you can’t handle gutturals, it’s pronounced “Vahn Kahk.”

Saturday Matinee – Sign Painters, Unsatisfying, PPAP, Chewbacca Screams; JJ Grey & Mofro
Great Grampa Strutts and his sons were painters. I tried it once, but didn’t have the proper equipment.
“Unsatisfying” by Parallel Studio.
PPAP is mildly disturbing.

JJ Grey & Mofro cranked some swamp soul at the Peoria Blues Fest on 31 August 2013. Lotta recognizable influences, especially Joe Cocker.
Have a great weekend folks.

That’s Mail Pouch barn painter Harley Warrick (1924-2000).
Here’s an excellent tribute site to those who travelled the sticks to hand-paint the ubiquitous advertisements:
That quote on top? It’s similar to what my own grampa told me:
“Find something you like to do, figure out how to get paid for it, and you’ll never work a day.”
