Just Chillin'

Friday, Friday! Let's have fun and forgeddabout the cruel world.


Today marks the day the National Geographic Society began in 1888, when a group of hoi polloi created a club to talk about travel. The magazine came out in October of 1888. Who hasn't marveled over the wonders and gorgeous images in the magazine? It really is a remarkable view into a world we never knew existed. They haven't always been politically correct, but they record history with images that are fabulous and sometimes, frightening.

Speaking of amazing... look at these creatures. I found these images on a now defunct blog.

Axolotl


Dumbo octopus

Aye aye lemur

Isn't that Axolotl the cutest little thing?

I think for many of us, one of the worst things that can happen to us is to walk in on our parents doing the deed. There is a story on The Smoking Gun about a fifteen year old who overheard her mother having sex, so she called 911 to have the police come get her and take her to a group home. The cops have to respond to 911 calls and by the time they got to the house, the girl decided to just go to school.

Whatchadoin'?

Always be a soft spot in my heart for National Geographic...it was my first introduction to boobies!

LOL. I was going to mention that many a young boy got their first glimpse there, but, I wasn't sure if that was a happy experience, seeing real, working boobs.

Oh, yes it was! How do you tell if they are working?

The deflated ones, just like how some working people, look.
