Overnight Open Thread

Running a little late tonight. The real world tends to intrude sometimes.

The Ballad of Beaker:

Eulogy for Mystry:

Mystry's daughter sent the following to me a couple of days ago:

"My family and I are most grateful to you and all the Morons. Christmas was up and down, as can be expected. I continue to lurk. It's so nice to know all of you are out there. Thanks again."

Here's the eulogy from my dad's funeral

Here's how we're dealing

Jon Madden’s No-Fly Zone:

I like to re-post this every once in awhile for no particular reason. Madden’s dislike of all things airplanish is well known but I saw this live. Even after the Blue Angels had done their flyover and the game started, Madden railed on about the scary airplanes for at least another ten minutes.

Lion Tacos:

PETA and the Center for Science in the Public Interest Nuisance hardest hit.

"TUCSON, Ariz. (AP) - A Tucson taco restaurant already has served up python, alligator, elk, kangaroo, rattlesnake and turtle.

Boca Tacos y Tequila says it's accepting prepaid orders for African lion tacos, to be served starting Feb. 16. Orders must be placed by Feb. 7 and owner Bryan Mazon says there are already a few reservations from curious customers."

Ahhh, I see. Tucson, a city of haterz. You can't beat the price though. A lion taco can be had for $8.75.

Tour of a Supertanker’s Engine Room:

Yeah, it’s kinda’ big and stuff. The atmospheric processor on LV-486 ain’t got nothin’ on this thing. Sorry, Alien Queen’s nest not included.
