Could someone explain the #2 "*three shots later*" one? The anime character has a gun out, so is it an NRA/Second Amendment thing? I suppose it could refer to drinking shots, but it looks like a wedding party with champagne and wine but no shot glasses in sight.

What's the cost of custom furniture to fit into a round tube? The gaps between the cylinders seem like a great place for birds to nest. In a rectangular room, more of that space would be available to the humans. That wall of air conditioners next door make me wonder about the cooling costs when all walls are exterior walls.

I got that image out of my head by recalling the song "The Mermaid" by "Great Big Sea." Similar principle though.

Acrobatic diver? 'Back to School' had an autobiographical element to it! Probably not the Triple Lindy though.

Nope, I wasn't even close.

Uncle John didn't loaf around with this piece, but did we knead so many puns? Yes, we did.

That shark net one doesn't have to be a lie. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shark_net

Fun! Though I'm not sure about "Man vs. Reality". That's from "Duck Amuck", when the unseen animator (revealed later to be Bugs) gives Daffy a new body. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2W_01K-PmnM . It's pretty far from reality.

My hat goes off to people like Mac. One idle dream of mine was to hike the Appalachian Trail. In Scouts we did it for a couple of days. Later I read Bill Bryson's "A Walk In The Woods" when after a lot of walking they have only made it to TN. He took time off and resumed from where they would have been, to find it was still only 1/2-way there. My dream is now down to going for a hike for a few weeks, rather than many months. I'm now about the age Bryson was for his book, so it's still eminently doable.

"I swear officer, that tram driver deliberately swerved to hit me!"

I was born in 1970, and looking at those pictures I realize that I miss shorts. Real shorts. Shorts that end above mid-calf. Most shorts for men these days go to just above the knee, which is entirely too long.

Like Darwin, I'm fond of my afternoon naps.
