    A-58 recently visited Atlantic Beach in Florida and bestows upon us this clutch of lovely ladies, darlings of the Atlantic. The card is aptly entitled "Visualize a World Without Men". Cheers Bobby!

    One of the reasons I like the Minnesota tundra. Mostly parkas and snowmobile suits to cover up all that exposed skin.

    Thankfully I didn't see such sights when I was there. The whales must've went south for the winter by then.

    There is a navy base just north of Atlantic Beach, Mayport Naval Station. Saw a couple of helicopter carriers tied up while crossing the ferry.

    I was walking along the quay in Monaco, back in the '70s and ... taking in the sights. Two of the sights (technically "4", I guess) waved at me and said "Hey, American, want some real food?" They pointed to the bbq set up on the fantail of their accommodations. Who was I to refuse.

    Reportedly found on a tombstone outside Tombstone.

    Four slugs from a forty-four.
    No Les, no more."
