Old Cellarite Alan Bellows at Damn Interesting, wrote a great piece on the real life story of Colonel Sanders. I'd always figured the Colonel was just a gimmick to sell chicken. Turns out the son of a bitch was a man after my own heart. He was officially bestowed with the honorary title of Kentucky Colonel twice, by Kentucky Governors, once before the chicken business for being a good Samaritan. It's a good read.

Yeah he was kind of a jerk, so was Garlits, and Andretti. Oh, and Gurney. They had to be, highly intense people doing what they're best at, must stay focused. We play a game and it's win or lose They have the possible outcomes of win, lose, or die. Anybody with the free time and tons of money could go everywhere he goes, but will never equal his experience there because he's got connections.

Sorry Sir this area is closed to the public
Phone, bip bip bip, Hi this is Don Prudhomme...
Oh shit...

Apollo 11 Lunar Landing

Fascinating video of the approach and landing of the Apollo 11 LM.

Video is coupled with the spacecraft to ground radio traffic and the audio between the flight controllers at Houston.

This was interesting. I watched it a couple days ago, but neglected to post how cool it was.

Blanket fort? Not hardly. Treehouse? Not for your prince and princess. Concrete castle? Now we're talking.

A castle fit for your darlings.

Bosnia's ball is not man made. It's just like New Zealand's Moeraki Boulders.
