Origin of XXX on poison bottles. Goes back to the Apalachin moonshiners who placed the triple X on their bottles of "mountain dew" to denote the product was strained 3 times. That morphed into the poison identification.

7 out of ten Metropolitan police, that's the coppers who police London, a capitol of around 8,000,000 people, did not make a single arrest last year, although crime in London hit a 20 year high.

Not surprising Art. There is a small town in North Carolina where the whole PD just resigned. In today's world they don't get the backing & it is bad JuJu. Beter just to move on.

Good news for women & young girls. Biden has Covid so his "sniffer" is temporarily out of order.

I love a good shit story, y'know, say when you hear that your mate went to fart and followed through. Anyway, here's one for you, a Birmingham man is suing a market stall holder for £200,000 for selling him a piece of ham (Birming-ham?) five years ago which gave him the rampant shits and he says he has not stopped farting ever since. The churning noises from his stomach keep his wife awake at night, not to mention the gaseous cloud. You've just gotta laugh, haven't you?

Indeed, I take great pleasure in making fun of the misfortunes of others. There are flaws in everyone else.

Charles Curtiss born in 1860 in Kansas was part Indian. His mother died when he was young & he was raised by his two grandmothers, one being a full blood Kaw Indian. A poor student he never finished high school but went on to pass the Kansas Bar exam & became an attorney. Affable & a good speaker he went into politics at the local, state, & national levels never really accomplishing anything. He was then elected Vice-President under Herbert Hoover in 1928. Hoover recognized Curtiss' talents & gave him absolutely nothing to do, at which he excelled. He was known as Vice-President "Throttlebottom" which came to mean a totally inept politician..........Hmm, seems familiar these days.

Those temperatures were a bit naughty. Opening the back door was like opening the oven door. I had to get the dog out at 6 in the morning and kept spraying her with water for the rest of the day. Problem is the heat of the tarmac, it would burn her feet and considering Vets charge you £50 just to say hello to them, I thought I'd pass on the privilege.

If it was hot where you were, think of me travelling east to the hottest part of the country on Tuesday! It got up to 104.5F in Lincolnshire, I was in Norfolk. I can't put into words the SHEER HELL of those two days (Monday and Tuesday).

It got up to 94F here yesterday. I had to put the top up on the Mustang & put the air conditioner on too. Such sacrifice.

Rowan Atkinson (Mr. Bean) had no flying lessons, yet he kept a private plane aloft until the pilot regained consciousness. Manute Bol, a 7'7" NBA player from Sudan, paid 80 cows for his wife.

The official car of James Bond was set to be the Jaguar E Type. However during the filming of Goldfinger, Sir William Lyons refused to supply the three vehicles requested by the film maker. Enter the Aston Martin DB5 & the rest is history.

HA! I just love this piece of lefty shite, as they're eating their own sacred cows. Michael Johnson, the great American black athlete, has been accused of black racism after questioning a Nigerian's time at the world athletics championships. Black racism? That's no new term on me, because I know it's been kept a hidden secret by blacks and the media forever but anybody with a functioning braincell knows that blacks are 'the' most racist people on earth, we know their track record against whites, which is relentless. Anyway, back to the plot, but the racism that dare not speak its name is especially against each other but nobody has ever come out and said it yet, as it's best to keep ol' whitey primarily in the racist spotlight for financials purposes. Caribbean blacks hate Africans and call them monkeys but of course that's not racist from another black, well, not until now for some wonderful reason. I mean, what black on this earth has ever been accused of racism?

There's no get out of jail card as good as the black variety. I've seen a hundred cases in the States of blacks getting away rightful justice and I read now that a London police woman has won her case for reinstatement to the force after she was sacked for having child porn on her phone. If that was a white man he'd be in jail now, she hasn't even lost her job.

Willis Carrier was the inventor of modern air conditioning. He was born in Angola N.Y. in 1876 & was working at Buffalo Forge when his invention first appeared way back in 1902. He accomplished a feat which was once thought impossible.......the control of the indoor environment. He company became the Carrier Global Corporation. With the temperature on the rise world over his invention has certainly been a boon to mankind. I anticipating a response from the Limey's claiming one of theirs was first.

Hedy Lamaar was an Austrian-born Hollywood actress who fled Nazi occupied Europe & moved to America in 1938. She was once considered one of the most beautiful women in the world. Lamaar, a Jew, was outraged when a Nazi U-Boat sank a British ship carrying school children to safety in Canada with a large loss of life. She put her engineering skills to work & along with George Antheil developed a guidance system for Allied torpedoes. The principles they used are still incorporated in Bluetooth, GPS & Wi-Fi today. She & Antheil were inducted into the National Inventors Hall of Fame in 2014.

You are correct. On 20 June 1467 Wilfred Sponge opened a window in his Swaffham home thus introducing the concept of air conditioning.

Oh, I thought for sure you were going to post about hanging wet sheets from the London windows to catch the breeze. The sheets could easily be pushed aside so chamber pots could be emptied directly into the Thames.

To beat the heat wave in Europe, Spain is contemplating turning back the clock. Spain was once on Greenwich Mean Time along with longitudinal neighbors like Portugal, the U.K., & Morocco. In 1940, the dictator Francisco Franco moved the country ahead one time zone to be in sync with Nazi Germany, making Spain a land of 10 p.m. sunsets & late dinners. This means the hottest hours are not at noon, but in the middle of the afternoon. These temperatures catch people outside the house, after work. Bedtime comes & it is still hot. By turning back the clocks this could alleviate much of the problem.
