A woman's bare breasts calms an angry sea". This is why many vessels have a figure of a woman on the bow of the ship. It was believed that a woman’s bare breasts would “shame” the stormy seas into calm. Alas, the ancient power of female nudity. pic.twitter.com/ndzyPDFqY4

Random Photo of the Day
This was taken in 2014 at the Texas Roadhouse in Lebanon, PA. I will not post the picture of me on the stupid bull thing because it was my birthday. Nothing to see there.

Fleetwood Mac – 2018
They are about to go on tour at the beginning of October minus Lindsey Buckingham. They still sound great and Stevie Nicks and Christine McVie are still hot.
European 21st Century Dictators
or The European Union — either title fits. This morning 9 to 5 Mac posted a story about the standards that Netflix and Amazon Prime Video will have to meet in order to be able to function in the European economy.
Streaming video services like Netflix and Amazon Prime Video will soon have to ensure that at least 30% of the programming offered in Europe is produced in EU countries …
via 9 to 5 Mac
The rules and regulations they create are enormous and ridiculous. If we are lucky, Netflix will throw its hands up and say that it is monetarily not worth the effort and pull out of Europe. That is my hope.

Labor Day!
Most folks celebrate Labor Day by not working. For the last several years, our company has had to work on Labor Day.
Not this year.
I get the opportunity to be off and write scathing articles about whatever the fonk I want. I started a short story about a young boy versus the universe and a cookie jar. Perhaps, I’ll finish the first draft.
Saturday, I ripped out all of the cabling in the office and re-ran everything. I ended up with a boxful of cabling that I obviously didn’t need. I probably should have done that years ago. I was most happy to resurrect the Heineken sign that I’ve had for about seven years.


It is YOU
I’m happy that the author of this article is annoyed and my only regret is that I can make her MORE annoyed. Her annoyance is annoying to me.
Poor…poor…snowflake.
And for the record, I’m pretty sure that it isn’t driving EVERYONE crazy. I am not. Therefore, the EVERYONE argument is null and void.
Apple’s iOS 12 beta is driving everyone crazy
We would if we could, Apple.It’s not the end of the world, of course — a quick tap on “close” and the notification disappears — but it sure is annoying, and doesn’t really fill anyone with great hopes for a smooth roll out when the update becomes available generally.

This isn't annoying. Nope, not at all. Pops up after every unlock (and there's no actual update). pic.twitter.com/BgHzmU8Y3r

I want to thank the men and women of the 42 Detective Squad, Bronx Homicide and all who worked on the murder case of Lisa Marie Velasquez. Your collective efforts led to those responsible for her murder. Two perpetrators are now in custody. #Bronx @NYPDnews @NYPDChiefofDept pic.twitter.com/LBTKQawoNW
