Multnomah Falls, about thirty miles east of where I live. I took this picture in 2006. The entire waterfall is over six hundred feet high.

Longer larger fart - being a vegan I can relate. Enjoyed Jesus for lease but was shaking my head at that truck driver. Who could be so clueless?
Very many good ones! I especially like the GIFs.
Hahaha
The one about getting sucked off. Was there a line?
And I cannot believe the things people do when they are driving. Really.
The one at the coffee shop is kind of slice-of-millenial-life, no?
XOXO
The waterfall picture you took is outstanding.
I used my meme stealing license to acquire a few of these.
If they stand behind me . . . I'm FLAT on the floor, hyperventilating myself into a first-class heart attack!
What a great collection! The one that looks like the cat's head is in a basket, separate from the rest of the body, is an amazing capture!
Lady M: That driver must have had to ignore some pretty alarming noises, at least. I'm guessing he's no longer in the profession.
Ricko: More to come.....
Sixpence: I doubt there was a line. People tend not to expect British Rail to deliver on extravagant promises.
I'm amazed that gal can even afford coffee after paying her hairstylist bill.
Mary K: Thanks! I took several, but some of them came out blurry. It's amazing what a profusion of green there is around there -- the air is constantly damp because the waterfall generates so much mist.
Mike: Please do.....
Dellgirl: Not literally, I hope!
Martha: The person who took that must have caught the cats at just the right moment.
I've seen the Medusa one. Which confused me at first, since like most people I wasn't as familiar with Ovid's version.
I love all of these so much
Anon: Actually I suspect many people are only vaguely familiar with the original story. This sculpture was made by an artist who wanted to depict an alternate ending, with Medusa defeating Perseus.
Granny: I aim to entertain.....
ouch! is your hand fully healed?
I opted not to get surgery to repair the bone because the doctor said the break would have no impact on function, which is true. I still get episodes of pretty bad pain in that area sometimes, though.
so sorry about the pain - I had a bad skiing accident some years ago & ended up not getting surgery -- interesting to experience the body can heal on its own, just some things take longer than others
It could have been a lot worse. I also got a concussion in that accident. If I hadn't been wearing a helmet, it could easily have been a skull fracture.
thank goodness!...

Please be on-topic and read the comments policy. Spam, trolls, and fight-pickers will be deleted. If you don't have a Blogspot account and aren't sure how to comment, please see here. Fair warning -- I reject all comments containing any of the following:
1. Support for transgenderism
2. Negativity about Brexit
3. Support for a military draft or compulsory national service
I am not obligated to provide a platform for views I find morally abhorrent. And obviously I'm going to delete anything which is just quoting what an "AI" said. I want to hear from you, not from the always-wrong hallucination machine.
No comments advocating violence against any specific identifiable individual, even jokingly.
Please be considerate -- no political or politics-tinged comments on non-political posts, and no performative cynicism. Finally, please remember that this is a personal blog whose main purpose is to encourage contact from people with similar interests and world-views to mine. I really don't much care for arguing and debating; if arguing and debating is what you want, there are plenty of other places on the internet which welcome that.
From now until the finalization of the election results, no comments claiming the Republicans (or Democrats) will or can "steal" the election. It's pointless to engage with such stuff, and it promotes defeatism, which makes people less likely to vote or otherwise be politically active.
