It was one of those bright sunny days that feel so good when you seek shelter under the canopy of a large, well-endowed tree [I'm such a keyword whore]. At first I thought the tree was bleeding leaves. I saw these green, hairy, finger-like insects carpeting the entire bark of one tree. 
there are quite a number of folks in the world who ignored Saddam's petty quirks such as gassing his own people and throwing friends and relatives into a meat-grinder, and looked at him as a family man, a doting father and loving husband. 
The Saudis have so much loose cash lying around that they could set up hospitals in inner cities and provide free care to the poor and non-insured among us. Well, you may wonder, "What's wrong with that? If the Saudis want to take care of our poor with their oil money, what's the harm?"
I pick a blogger from my blogroll and, using the colors of that blogger's weblog, find photographic matches for those colors. This week we take the colors from the blog Eternity Road
We are all familiar with the Law of Gravity, which may not even exist yet everyone falls for it, but are you familiar with these? (most I've collected from the Internet, a few are mine)
Many drivers find most wipers annoying but I have to say these are the only blades he actually likes to watch working even when it's not raining. Lately he's been driving around nonstop with them on. In fact, he's even been pulled over and the cop asked to go for a ride so he too could watch them work.
I know in my heart that not every single Nazi without exception was evil. It’s impossible. Some of them had to be ordinary, civilized family men who got caught up in the maelstrom and were unable to extricate themselves
I make fun of Islam for the same reason that a dog licks himself: because he can. Unfortunately Muslims cannot make fun of Islam: Read about the court case against two journalists accused of defaming Islam and damaging public morality in Morocco in their article published on December 9 titled, "Jokes: How Moroccans laugh at religion, sex and politics." The editor and one of the reporters of the weekly Arabic-language magazine are not laughing.
Had Eva Peron had better health, she might well have become the most powerful woman in South America. Hillary is not the first woman to ride the coattails of her husband or to cater to the poor and working class. 
I pick a blogger from my blogroll and, using the colors of that blogger's weblog, find photographic matches for those colors. This week we take the colors from blogger Something and Half of Something.
Back in 1994 I did some software programming for a 900 number spanking hotline that charged $2.50 a minute for callers to listen to young boys and girls being spanked.
So I go to Google's Book Search and type in "naked little girl brutalized by muslims" but get no matches. Well that only proves to me that Google has not yet digitized the University of Pakistan's Library with its vast collection of Qur'ans and back issues of "White Infidel Slaves of America". 
Months before Apple's iPhone came out a select few developers were playing with the device. The iPhone's debut is over now, so Apple junkies are asking, "What will Steve Jobs come up with next?" Luckily I was chosen to test out Apple's next future technology, code-named i3
Imagine for a moment that your son wants to marry a girl you think is wrong for him. Despite your advice that it would be a mistake your son goes ahead and marries her. Here's the question: would you rather that the marriage fail just so you could say I told you so, or would you want it to succeed so your son could be happy?
With so many new immigrants coming to this country I thought it would be a public service to inform our new potential citizens of how playing sports relates to corporate structure. I have embellished this Internet story with photos from Flickr.
For the past few hundred years, Muslims have been minor annoyances, usually as pirates on the Barbary Coast or as slave-dealers in Africa. But the last 50 years have given Arab countries so much money that the only way they know how to spend it is to spread Islamic terror.
What should scare everyone is the rapid deforestation in the third world, but it has nothing to do with America. American forests are better managed than any place on earth. Worry about other things than trees in America. 
This is my 483rd blog post and the first anniversary of Planck's Constant. I want to thank all my readers, the ones who like coming here and even those who hate reading me. 
The first photo is a small screenshot from the home page of The World According to Carl. 
During Summer Break in 1966 from the Hebrew Universtiy in Jerusalem, I took a job working construction at the Timna Copper Mine in the Eilat Desert, fabled site of King Solomon's Mines.
Favorite Sexual Position:
Many of you readers will recall your mother's warning never to venture outside unless your underwear is spotless; God Forbid you're in an car accident and after they wipe away all the blood, guts, urine, and broken bones they should discover brown stains on your underwear!
Well, worry no more
'I live in New Jersey. I curse.. a lot. I say 'yo', and i say it often. I sure as hell don't pump my own gas. I know what real pizza tastes like, and i know that a bagel is much more than a f*ckin roll with a hole in the middle. 
Many times in our lives we leave in a hurry and forget our pets. Here sadly is Saddam's cat and 12 other Flickr photos to remind us of his leaving so abruptly. This is perhaps one of the saddest Thursday 13s I have had to post. 
The Manhattan Project which invented the atomic Bomb cost about 30 billion in today's dollars. Any non-biased economist will readily tell you that for about 2 trillion dollars, which will be the final price tag for the Iraq War, America could have easily invented a way to get gasoline out of sand and without the political fallout of thousands of soldiers' lives. 
I would like to try something different on Open Trackback Tuesdays: I will pick a blogger from my blogroll and, using the colors of that blogger's weblog, find photographic matches for those colors. 
My wife likes to have a new car every 4 years so she's been leasing for the past 3 vehicles. Her lease was up this month but the buyout price for her 2003 Toyota Camry, $9952, is much less than the Kelly Blue Book value, $11,500; so she decided to buy the car.![In order for Ahmadinejad to bring his plans [of eliminating Israel] to fruition, however, he has to demonize the Jews and the State of Israel.](http://plancksconstant.org/blog1/image/sub1/cox-061217smv.jpg)
ISRAEL has drawn up secret plans to destroy Iran’s uranium enrichment facilities with tactical nuclear weapons. Two Israeli air force squadrons are training to blow up an Iranian facility using low-yield nuclear "bunker-busters”, according to several Israeli military sources.
Faultline USA commented yesterday, "I wanted to let you know that you have been nominated by for The Blogger's Halo Award. 
What a year! Muslims, Muslims, everywhere. We had cartoon riots, Minnesota voters send first Muslim to Capitol Hill, New UN ambassador a Muslim, the first female Muslim in space, Muslims taking over Catholic Churches in Belgium, and one-fourth of the world is now Muslim. 
Here are some billboards that lure Pakistanis into wanting a modern style of life but are in conflict with Islamic teachings. It will be interesting to see which culture eventually wins out. One thing for certain, both cannot co-exist for long.
I usually go to a small haircutting salon in Chinatown (New York); shampoo, haircut, shampoo: $14.00. But the Chinese girls keep their clothes on. I can't wait for this to catch on down here, although I do worry about how short my hair will be after a few weeks! I'm also told the place is expensive. How can that be? The outlay for uniforms has to be near zero!
Here's an experiment: Click on this image - but don't look at it yet. First, take a big swig of vodka, spin around quickly 10 times, then stare at the image for about 20 seconds. You should immediately vomit and then pass out.
I think it important that at the beginning of a New Year we reflect on past events and bring perspective to them now that some time has passed.
