A Blessed Wednesday Cafe

The Infiltrator

Speaking of blessings: I really wanted to take a break after the election, but then I thought that I, much like my hero Rachel Maddow, should be on call for the first 100 days of the Trump Administration, Redux.

April 30, Wednesday, is Trump's 100th day. Close enough!

The kind-hearted cobloggers have agreed to take over the blog next week, Monday through Friday.

So I'll be taking the week off, and leaving you in their strong yet tender hands.

Dog invades feline spaces. Good!

A week ago I linked videos of very realistic latex masks that look straight out of Mission: Impossible. Some commenters wondered if the masks were real or just CGI trickery like you see in the actual Mission: Impossible movies. Not only are they real, but they have already been used in bank robberies -- a young man wore a realistic mask of a decrepit old man, nearly as decrepit at Joe Biden, and has evaded capture to this day. Apparently people realized he was wearing a mask when they saw this ancient Bidenesque figure running away from a robbery at full tilt like a college athlete.

They're expensive -- like $2000 or $3000 -- but that's very cheap if you want to do major crimes or other deceptions.

The inner workings of an escalator are just as scary as I thought they were when I was 8. (I broke my foot when I was eight and had to get along with crutches and a foot in a boot-cast. I was very scared that I wouldn't be able to step on to an escalator properly -- I thought I'd slip and it would drag me under or something -- which is this faint anxiety I've had ever since.)
