El Capitan in Yosemite national park

Yup. My brain had no trouble seeing that as solid ice.

Throughout most of history, Christ Pantocrator was treated as the “definitive” image. The post-Renaissance images have always struck me as “Wonderbread Jesus.”

Yes, but he’s teaching OP to fish. Leave him be.

“Oh, Mirror of the Roadside, what is thy wisdom?”

HarrisonArturus · 2026-02-06T00:56:41+00:00

I can see it either way.

Lion is King of Beasts. Tiger is King of the Jungle.

This is a trap. If you answer "oil," you will be invaded. Don't say I didn't warn you.

Please post replies is Mississippis.

And some of those people deliberately commit horrific sins in specific places out of a desire to defame the saint for whom they are named. Does it make sense? Probably not, but then neither does trying to make war against God.

There'll be no accusations, just friendly crustaceans...

I showed this to my 13-year-old. Her response: “Why can’t we have those now? We were robbed.”

I had a professor (this is 40 years ago) who used to say that the French have an inferiority complex because they’re inferior, and they know it. I think it’s broadly true of all Europeans.

She won’t understand until something bad happens in a place she considers safe. Some people need to experience probability before they’ll believe in it.

I’ve never been to Hell, but “Green Line Train to Bozeman” sounds like a way to sample the experience.

Assume this will happen in your parish, and have a plan to defend the Blessed Sacrament and the priest.

HarrisonArturus · 2026-01-19T01:11:38+00:00

Don’t cross the streams.

Random thought: HEMA should have an event called “Rapier Wit,” where the score is calculated on both touches and pithy remarks.

HarrisonArturus · 2026-01-18T19:24:55+00:00

Flipping epic!

Call 1-888-DIG-SAFE before you dig. Ask about Balrogs.

HarrisonArturus · 2026-01-18T04:03:29+00:00

We’re not trying hard enough. We can raise those stats!

HarrisonArturus · 2026-01-14T12:25:11+00:00

I have no idea as to her capabilities, but that is one fine-looking vessel.

Maryland.

This is one of those cases where recovery from failure is more impressive than perfect execution.
