It never caught on the way the inventor had hoped. But nonetheless, a couple of people became real masters. Sadly though, their names have also gotten lost in the mists of time.

No. I didn't attend. The triumphant young fellow in the back is the son of a good friend. Good musician, and sound guy, as well.

"Christ", muttered Charles, as he unveiled the portrait.

Speaking at the unveiling, the artist said that he wished to explain “two artistic pieces of licence.Yeo said: “One is the colour, obviously, which was inspired by the colour of the bright red tunic of the Welsh Guards.

“The other thing is the butterfly. I would love to take full credit for that but it was actually the subject’s idea.”

Charles laughed and asked: “Was it?"

Always happy to see NASA scrub a mission out of an abundance of caution, especially when there are people strapped on top of the rocket thingy.

Tacitus and Suetonius be like:

"And on the eve of the great battle, the Roman Consul Flavius Prolixitus exhorted his legions with these words, 'blah blah blah blah blah...'" (for two or three pages)

Whereas Polybius:

"And he addressed them in words suitable to the occasion." (full stop)

Good morning Mastodonians! A beautiful beginning of May Day near the Bay, yay!

Photo of a calm May Day morning on Harris Creek sun rising behind a low grey shelf of cloud bisecting the sky to the left. Sky is deep blue. Marsh is steadily greening up for spring. Creek water is rippled and reflects the sky and clouds. In the foreground Miles and Jon two black Flat-Coated retrievers stroll down the wood walk in hopes of spotting interesting waterfowl.
