If that guy's 92, he's got the genetics of a Galapagos tortoise.   

I don't think any of us can go back and change who our grandpapa was ...  :grin:   :wink:

Today's news (not my photo)



https://www.bbc.com/news/science-environment-44967491

The black hole at the centre of our galaxy has helped astronomers confirm a key prediction of Albert Einstein's ideas.

By observing a cluster of stars near the hole, they were able to confirm a phenomenon known as "gravitational redshift".

It's when the wavelength of light gets stretched out in response to a gravitational field.

The result will help scientists better understand the physics of black holes.

The Very Large Telescope (VLT) in Chile found evidence for Einstein's prediction by observing a star, called S2, that passed through the intense gravitational field of Sagittarius A* - the huge black hole at the heart of the Milky Way.

The effect they observed, gravitational redshift, occurs as particles of light (photons) climb out of a gravitational well like a black hole. As they do, the light's wavelength gets drawn out.

Although they look like pigs, they are NOT related...they are Peccaries, which migrated north from South America, and they are also not related to European Boars, which were imported to the USA from Europe.

Great photo!  I assume that's a "pet" yes?  They are cool critters, but I understand they do not make good pets... :shocked: :huh: :wink:

We have a LOT of them around here...and they visit our Arroyo nightly!

If you click on the photo and then hit the arrows on either side I have collected over 800 cool vintage photos, feel free to browse.  My Smug Mug is full of motorcycle photos.  Thanks!
Wow! Lots of great photos. Some good Guzzi photos. I took me a couple of minutes to look at all of them.
One of the most interesting - the leaning racing sidecars - I'm guessing that the steering wheel controlled the lean?

I understand they do not make good pets...

When he was in high school, my kid brother brought home a young raccoon. Sweet critter, quite affectionate and gentle. But it got into everything -- kitchen cabinets and drawers mostly, but when it got into the darkroom, exposing a lot of paper and spilling a lot of chemicals, it had to go. Went to a petting zoo.

That's a shame. I bet if you could've trained the critter to pay attention to the timer, he would've been great at agitating the prints in the chemical trays. Probably wouldn't have even needed the safe light on, either.

Rode by that this morning.   Shocked me ... "Now WHERE did I just see that?   I didn't come through here on the way out ...."   Then I remembered ....
