How American politics went insane
Republicans and Democrats of 2016 have neither intelligible boundaries nor enforceable norms. As a result, renegade political behavior pays.

The WOW signal
The Elusive Wow, amateur astronomer Robert Gray tells the story of the "Wow!" signal, and of astronomy's quest to solve the puzzle of its origin. It's a story he is well-positioned to tell. That's because Gray has been the "Wow!" signal's most devoted seeker and chronicler, having traveled to the very ends of the earth in search of it. Gray has even co-authored several scientific articles about the "Wow!" signal, including a paper detailing his use of the Very Large Array Radio Observatory in New Mexico to search for it. I spoke with Gray about the "Wow!" signal, radio telescopes, and the economics of prospective extraterrestrial civilizations.

Spooky Creepy Bad Guys
My hubs has an idea. He wants to see the original Hannibal Lector, played by Anthony Hopkins and the TV version Hannibal played by Mads Mikkelsen, along with Hell on Wheels villain Thor Gunderson, played by Christopher Heyerdahl, in a VILLAIN movie together.

Appreciation Friday: Artist Sidney Nolan
Things I'm learning about him:
3. He was torn between being an artist or a poet
Nolan was obsessed with the works of French poet Jean Nicolas Arthur Rimbaud. But thank god he followed his visual artistic pursuits, otherwise we wouldn’t have his amazing Australian paintings to boast about, like this one:4. He was passionate about all things French
Whether it was poetry or paintings, Nolan revelled in French arts. He drew inspiration from 19th-century painter Henri Rousseau. He also loved Picasso and Cézanne. And in 1957, he studied engraving and lithography at Atelier 17 in Paris.(3, 4, me too! but i can't paint... )
I love this guy!

Road Rage
We had a truck following us in Northampton an hour ago. He was waving his hand and flipping us off. Now that is what worries me. Road rage! What if he had a gun? We were looking for a plumbing supply store. It was a left turn. He went around us waving like a mad man. I hate that.
king of pain
In 1983, the Police released their last studio album, Synchronicity, which spawned the hit singles "Every Breath You Take", "Wrapped Around Your Finger", "King of Pain", and "Synchronicity II". By that time, several critics deemed them "the biggest rock band in the world." (WIKI)
