Non-political things that make you say...WTF?!?! (Welcome To Florida!) **NOT CV RELATED** NO TALKY!

Soooo, that explains a lot. I guess Batman technically pisses and frequently autofellates himself. Not much of superhero when he’s constantly trying to get jiggy with anything and everything. Explains why he keeps his sidekick, Robin, around.

 

Arson doesn't help either...

 

Lol. I’m not up to date on comic book lore I guess.

 

The actress. Don’t know about the character other than what happens in The Killing Joke.

 

Heaps of arsonists being nabbed. Smash them all.

 

Oh yeah, this one definitely belongs here!

 

The way that front wheel is mounted, I can't see this thing even being able to make a clean turn at a traffic light.

Likely has a turning radius like the USS Nimitz.

I wonder if it's rear steer?

 

The front wheel is mounted to what looks like a John Deere 4710 hub. I wonder if it’s three wheel drive.

 

Great Gertrude's Ghost!

I think it's the other way around. That spindle looks like it can crank to 90 degrees, allowing that truck to literally do a U-turn in place.

I wonder what John Deere thinks of the appropriated paint scheme...

 

Why? Just why would someone do this.

 

Allot of the big seed farmers I know have gangs of loot, allot of mechanical know how, and boring winters.

 

Definitely a conversation piece. He must be a huge JD fan. Maybe they need to MESO it up.

 

JD is made in Illinois and the people here definitely have a hard on for the brand and the colors.

 

South Carolina in for one...

K-9 bites cow, SC deputy tases K-9, cow kicks deputy

GEORGETOWN, S.C. – A deputy in Georgetown County was forced to use a taser on his own K-9 on Wednesday afternoon, WCBD reports.

According to the Georgetown County Sheriff’s Office, a deputy responded to the scene of a reported burglary around 4 p.m.

A cow near the scene distracted the dog which led to the dog biting the cow.

To deescalate the situation, the deputy tased the dog.

The cow was spooked and “struck the deputy and the property owner,” resulting in minor injuries, according to GCSO.

The sheriff’s office said that the burglary call “proved to be unfounded.”

 

RIP Mr. Peanut.

(and as an aside - the "Nutmobile"? Really?)

Mr. Peanut dead at 104, funeral to be held during Super Bowl

WILKES-BARRE, Pa. — Planters’ longtime mascot Mr. Peanut has died after over a century of service, the company announced on Wednesday.

“It is with heavy hearts that we confirm that Mr. Peanut has died at 104. In the ultimate selfless act, he sacrificed himself to save his friends when they needed him most,” the Estate of Mr. Peanut posted on Twitter.

Planters also released a 30-second teaser leading up to its Super Bowl ad. It shows actors Wesley Snipes and Matt Walsha with Mr. Peanut on a weird road trip in the Nutmobile. The vehicle swerves to avoid an armadillo, and sends the trio clinging to a tree branch on the side of a cliff. Mr. Peanut lets go and falls to his death as the Nutmobile explodes.

A Planters spokeswoman said a funeral for the monocle-wearing peanut will air during the third quarter of the Super Bowl.

 

That'd be a red flag Actually I worked as an Air Force contractor, on classified military projects. To get to my office you had to get past armed guards at the gate, a key pad at the main building door, a combination bank vault style door, another security guard, and another key pad. The data center was a purpose built Faraday cage with a balmy 60 degrees and 50% humidity year round. Needless to say getting any classified information out of that building would be difficult to the extreme.

It was a good job, even if I did freeze my ass off, and the parking lot was full of new cars.

 

I lived in SCIFs for 14 years, and my current location is a federal data center. Same security. The difference is that the SCIF was all national security stuff and the VA is essentially a bank. Some folks here are like "why is security so tight?" and I have to remind them that we're not just a hospital system - we're a bank that averages $1B in payments a day and bad folks want to crack our payment systems.

IT security is job security!
