BIG ‘OL HONKIN’ SQUID
Seriously dead predator of the deep in preparation for the New Zealand Calamari Festival.
This Colossal Squid, caught in 2003, has been thawed and is being professionally dissected by The Society of Professional Squid Dissectors (TSPSD). Video is promised by the second link below.
Tentacle clubs with swiveling hooks.
Mid-arm suckers and hook.
Squid Beak.
Prolly capable of cracking macadamia nuts if it wanted to.

TGIF: The .Gif Friday Post 42- How Zippers Work
Red attacks Green who attacks back, while both are under the control of Yellow without knowing it. Kinda like Rock-Paper-Scissors, with Paper in charge.
It’s a lot like politics. Red and Green are Democrats and Republicans, and Yellow stands for what passes for journalism these days.

That’s right. What Would Jesus Drive?
According to one source, on 25 September 1990, Kelly Murray drove his ball 684.8 yards on the 30-foot wide airstrip at Fairmont Hot Springs, British Columbia, setting a new world record.
Of course, Jesus could drive as far as He wanted, but would hold back a bit so as not to completely eradicate the game. He plays fair, and it’s not in His temperament to call His Father on the celestial cellphone and say, “Hey Pop! I got a 7:45AM tee-off time. You mind warping space and time for a microsecond?”
On the other hand, He might just skitter one longways across a water hazard, up the bank, around a sand trap and into the hole instead, only to show that it can be done (and to inspire others to keep perfecting their game instead of yelling “F**K!” after each shot).
So what would He drive? I’m guessing 150-175 yards with no wind… but He’d clean up with His putts.

Chuck Norris vs. Nancy Pelosi.
The Intro to “The Prisoner.” Great ’60s spy/spook/paranoia TV show about freedom. No. 6 never gives up his ethics, even when given the opportunities. There are way too many politicians these days, and too few are No. 6’s. [Yeah I know, it’s a link repost. It’s still great, though.]
