Re: Norwegian wins 2018 Iditarod

[Ken Waller]

IIRC, four of the American's dogs were tested positive for a banned 
substance after his second place finish last year in the Iditarod. He denied 
having given the banned substance to his dogs. Maybe that's why he was 
racing in Norway and skipping the

Iditarod.

The Iditarod is the premiere dog sled race in the World.  Today, it was 
won

by a Norwegian, Joar Leifseth Ulsom.  Meanwhile, the American who won 4 of
the last five races is competing in an event in Norway.

I don't often comment on your images but this one is really something 
special. The lighting really accentuates the athleticism of the dancer. Most 
people just don't realise how demanding it is to be a prima ballerina.

Re: OT: Stephen Hawking

[ann sanfedele]

actually - I'd like to think Hawking , knowing he was probably not going 
to live too much longer anyway, chose to pull the lifesupport system so 
that these thingswould be aligned... as not only was it PI day, and 
Einstein's birthday but Einstein died at age 76 (I  learned today).  
Hawking did have a sense of humor.

Re: OT: Political Joke

There is so much politics every where, so much hate and anger, that a sanctuary 
is much more valuable than yet another forum for vitriol. While jokes about 
Trudeau are offered with a grin and perhaps even a dollop of affection, there 
are no smiles to be seen on this side of the border. Let’s stick to our decades

We've taken to calling Son of PeeAir "Mr. Dressup" after a children's

I found it very amusing that he was dressed in a Sari during business

OK, I know it wasn't a Sari.
Trudeau is very big on banning cultural appropriation until it's him

facebook for me is for keeping in touchwith friends around the world, 
posting photos, looking at friends photos, and 90% of my facebook time is
simply playing Words With Friends.   I spend maybe 10 minutes a day 
skimming what friends post - not to mention that almost all of my 
Facebook friends are people I knew in person before even getting on 
facebook. THe only people who I don't know in person that I'm friends 
with on facebook are PDML guys.  I dont even play words with friends 
with people I dont know.  So I don't even see any donnybrooks. I 
wouldn't dream of reading any NEWs on facebook!

Makingjokes about Trump actually help those of us who have to live with 
the reality show in DC.. There are those on the left and those on the right
and then there is Trump...  he is teased and mocked on both sides of the 
"aisle"


LIghtren up, an occasional jab here and there surely can't be sooo bad.

"Eternal memory, eternal memory, blessed repose, eternal memory."

I remember it being sung at funerals for members of my father's family,

Re: PESO: common myna

[Jostein]

The photo make them look like gangster birds! :-)
Just did a quick read-up on them (aka wikipedia and IUCN), and found 
that they are considered to be among the "worst 100" of invasive species 
world wide.

So, I'd say your photo do them fair justice! :-)

a common myna. and it is really not only common but belongs with the
rose-ringed parakeet as one of the most noisiest birds ever...

Subscribed!
One of the old Norse texts, Håvamål, describes eternal life as an 
enduring presence in the memory of the living. I think Hawking will 
linger, if not forever, for at least a good number of generations to come.
