Well that didn't go well. Retrieval operation underway after hundreds of drones plunge into Melbourne's Yarra River. Potentially hundreds of drones are resting on the bottom of the Yarra River after a mysterious technical malfunction on Friday night sent them plummeting into the water in Melbourne's CBD.Better luck next time. |

Uplifting moment caught of camera. Sadly it wasn't uplifting for 1 person. Moment explosion tears through Johannesburg street. It reminds me of another place elsewhere where the same thing happened. |

New word for the day. Allision occurs when a moving object (i.e., a vessel) strikes a stationary object (e.g., buoy) Collision occurs when two moving objects strike each other. |

Construction crane suffers fire and failure. A burning crane collapsed and smashed into a skyscraper in New York City, injuring half a dozen people. A burning crane collapsed and smashed into a skyscraper in midtown Manhattan early Wednesday morning, hurting at least 6 people.There's a bit of Allision for ya. ;-) |

Construction crane suffers fire and failure. Yes, perfect example. |

Grant. That almost looks like my bathroom. The vanity sink cabinet is even closer on the left side. The empty toilet paper holder is poking me in the ribs on my left. ![]() ![]() |

Damn, and I thought that my 10'x7' bathroom was small (even though I do have a 1m sq. shower instead of bathtub in it), and you fellows should stop talking about about your weight as you're making my 6'3" 120kg frame feel positively anorexic (and I know that I could do without 20kg of that). :-) Anyhow several beers were had up at the pub and now it's time for something to eat before feeding Dog and grabbing a bit of shuteye before day 2 of the last cricket test starts in England. We've also reached 15C (feels like 11C) here, but I doubt that we'll make that 16C mark at this time of the afternoon. Cheers. |

Grant. That almost looks like my bathroom. The vanity sink cabinet is even closer on the left side. The empty toilet paper holder is poking me in the ribs on my left. Well... That design works fine with the old waterproof Izal Russian-style greaseproof toilet paper of old... Ouch! Good to have moved on since those days of old... Enjoy!
