It is unbelievable but a few days ago I learnt for the first time there exists certain marine mammal called false killer whale. It is even more surprising I hadn`t heard the name before because it is very unusual in Polish. See another thread. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/False_killer_whaleAnd I thought I knew all sea creatures as studying sea life has been my hobby for years. There are also Home pods and transient pods. Home pods stay local and eat fish where transients kill and eat other mammals. I spent some time in the Salish Sea and learned these things. I was with a polymath that wrote an article about octopus brain structure that I will post some time for you. It is really very interesting.

My wife enjoys all the luxuries of being married to an Automation/Robotics Engineer. All household tasks are completed via voice commands.
She simply asks me to do things.
Latency is sometimes an issue though.

I really like soda bread for the texture and the dry sweetness that it has.

Happy belated Thanksgiving Jeanne! I was in the Mexican province of Yucatan with members of my family during the holiday. We stopped in Miami to celebrate with the Cubans yesterday. Much to be grateful for this season!

I hope Europe is ready to handle the influx of celebrity refugees. They will not be missed here.

Looks like the the more traditional political entities in Poland have gotten themselves caught in the snare set for them. Too bad, this will be used against them forever. The real issue with reproductive rights is that the conversation was ended after half the people got what they wanted.

Drawing on the pavement that cars drive on is a bad idea because small children don't belong there. Drawing on the walkways is perfectly fine. I would encourage Juliet to refer to the neighbor who wrote the letter as "Big Doody(poop) Head" in any further confrontation.

Math, logic, and computer literacy are universal skills. It doesn't really matter what the product or service is you will add value to the process. Rational people will always be valued in a Machiavellian world.

I came across this photo of a 777-300 landing at Chopin in the rain. It is a very powerful photo so I thought I would share it. (I did not take this.)

737 is a fine aircraft Bo. I have been to the Boeing Renton Assembly where the 737s are built. Earlier this year I was at a Phoenix AZ facility where much of the avionics software is developed. I get around.

I think it's wonderful! Poland is in a unique position to witness the suicide of its neighbors and avoid the same fate.

Peter, Recently you had been at some event as a videographer and were surprised by the level of distrust or even animosity shown towards you. I stumbled upon this video and thought of your predicament. The first three minutes explain it perfectly. There only exists two types of popular media outlets; The tabloid,The political activist. Over the years I have been able to discern that you are a person of good-will and have never been able to articulate why I find your chosen profession surprising. I imagine you more as a documentary researcher than a street videographer. -Tim

The Ukraine situation while disturbing does not yet constitute a pattern of behavior. Where is the E.U.?

That is just the politicians and media trying to stay relevant. The politician spares the turkey and then goes inside and eats some other turkey while nobody's watching.
Seems about right..

In practice Thanksgiving is a time to gather with friends and family, to share a meal, and focus on the blessings in our lives. Aboriginals and Turkeys have little to do with it in reality. It's more an idea than a ritual. The focus is gratitude.

I'm rather enjoying the show. The level of collective cognitive dissonance is amazing!
Just remember though, if you are opposed to cultural Marxism then you are either a racist or misogynist. Happily, the feminists finally got their "rape culture" that they always dreamed existed.
Just convert to Islam and get this over painlessly./s

You can talk about anything you want until someone feels "uncomfortable" and decides to report you to the administrators. This video sums it up nicely.

I don't think I hold any romantic notions about what Poland is or was. I don't even consider myself part of Polonia. I'm more of a Polonius.. I do have Polish ancestry, but I am completely an American. My elders didn't speak of Poland often or even fondly, much too busy living their lives here. I became interested in the country some time ago because there is a historical connection for me. I'm glad my ancestors left during the partition. However, If I were to decide to leave here, Poland would be a consideration. (Although not my first.) Piojtr, As far as media goes, nobody here watches or listens to the news media anyway. It's generally ridiculed by anyone except the most dense. There are so many good web aggregators out there that we are simply waiting for the old media relics to collapse into the ether. My greatest joy will be seeing Katie Kouric selling diet pills on late-night television.

Yes, wild boar can be very dangerous, especially the Eurasian variety. In fact, even domesticated hogs can and will kill a human and consume them entirely, bones and all. Hungry animals are dangerous animals. The problem with pigs is that they are prolific breeders. Left un-predated they will over-breed and exist in a cycle of feast-famine that will cross the hungry/dangerous point fairly frequently. It sounds like Poland has the same issue voices.yahoo.com/pet-hoarding-crazy-cat-lady-disease-2650511.htmlas many other countries. That issue is to me this: What nature really is, and what ignorant urbanites think it is, are entirely different things. I hold an urban hunting permit. Most of my training was how to deal with hostile PETA-types. Truth be known, people who rally against culling problematic wildlife in an urban setting love neither nature nor humanity. They are the worst kind of misanthropes.

I never pity the Polish. I know they are strong people. They just like to drink too much. I have a good life Bo. It didn't start out that way, but I made good choices and worked hard and smart.
