    DEATHS ; Notable Passings; The Thread to Pay Last Respects

    This one really hits home for me. I remember listening to him on a small transistor radio when I was a new recruit in the army. It was at the early start of his fame. Over the years I certainly attended a dozen or more of his concerts and owned every one of his vinyl albums back in the day...

    The Agents of F.L.A.S.K.

    My brother lives about two hours from where the Patterson-Gimlin film was shot. As he says, between him and Bluff Creek “it’s all logging tracts and protected woods.” What’s interesting is that, if you ask any of his friends and neighbors, their official position will be “it’s impossible that...

    200 ship traffic jam/backlog at the Panama Canal. Caused By low water levels due to drought. I had no idea the canal was so fresh water/rainfall dependent. Seems like a major vulnerability in this day and age. https://futurism.com/the-byte/panama-canal-pileup 46% of trade between Northern Asia...

    Clean Jokes

    A beautiful blonde boards an aircraft bound for Toronto and goes straight to business class and takes a seat, even though her ticket is for a seat in coach. A flight attendant tries to get her to move, but the woman won’t move, basically saying “As a gorgeous blonde, I’m accustomed to getting...

    GHT, that is the best theory I have heard in a long time! Very FLASK-worthy. A few decades ago, some Americans might have welcomed a return to the Royal British fold with open arms, believing that such an event might reestablish calm, dignity, and parliamentary order. Alas, it’s too late now...

    Discussing this thread, I was told by someone who ought to know that the old German script is still being taught in schools in Austria. I’m a little bit skeptical. Can anyone confirm that it’s still being taught in schools anywhere?

    The latest titillating developments: Just a few days after the eye-opening July 26th hearing, Ken Klippenstein wrote an axe-job piece for The Intercept, writing that David Grusch has mental health issues and should not be taken seriously when talking about secret government reverse engineering...

    There’s certainly a lot to be said for Dianna Rigg. However, the Avengers Theme does not feature pterodactyls, mummies, cryptids, aliens, etc. That stuff is the bread and butter of F.L.A.S.K. I think many F.L.A.S.K. Members (well, me at least) were raised on Johnny Quest. I rest my case.

    That brings back some old memories. My mother and her parents used to trade letters written in Schrift. As a kid, I’d endlessly pour over the letters, trying to decipher them. Still have a few of those letters (remember the near weightless airmail paper and envelopes?) in the old “family...

    We have, of course, visited the Vatican Secret Archives before. Most notably, when the archives coughed up a document that exonerated the Knights Templar. https://www.reuters.com/article/us-vatican-templars/knights-templar-win-heresy-reprieve-after-700-years-idUSL093422320071012 This time...
