Oh yes, you can just walk away but your spoken words will remain trapped.

Wow, I had no idea Mel Brooks was the instigator of this show.

Sorry, I miswrote. I still love wackiness very much.

Yes. It will eventually run from Kunming to Singapore. The leg through Laos is complete already, with dozens of tunnels and bridges through previously untouched jungle.

Are the high-speed trains coming from China?

Is there ever any way to escape the dome of silence?

The smiles are so telling

I feel a tinge of meloncholy...

The coconuts love the cows

In defense of Boof, (not that he needs my defense) I think he still loves wackiness based on the very fact that he posted himself under the Cone of Silence. I too loved the wackiness of "Get Smart" when I was young. Back then, I had no idea it was a production of the greatest genius of wackiness of all-time--Mel Brooks.

Wait .. "loved" wackiness?!

You don't love wackiness anymore?

Or .. was Get Smart just at the front end of your long-standing love of wackiness?

That dome of silence is fantastic!

Those two smiles!

Quite a wonderful way to start the day.

One of my favorite scents!

This was growing in the back patio area of one of my home stays in Argentina.

The scent will always remind me of the matriarch of that home, Dina. She was well under 5ft tall and we used to have some friendly bantering about who was going to wash the dishes.

"Today, we were fully loaded and would have aroused suspicion if we went to see the langurs."

That's a brilliant sentence that I could imagine hearing in a David Attenborough nature show. And I wouldn't be surprised to see it in my Great Divide journal this summer.

Ah HA! I knew the mass extinction was a hoax. This proves that dinosaurs were on the Ark, along with the sloths and orangutans.
