Looked it up... was the ISS/International Space Station:

Another good site for satellite viewing:

Came across that checking out the little roads around here... when I suggested we take prank pics of each other like we're walking across it FL wasn't so sure, thought I would get out on it too far.

Here's another one...

good shed; good writer.

Two months now since we arrived in Colombia, here our new pal Felix is proudly describing what each of the symbols is in the crown insignia on the front of the Basilica on the plaza here in Monguí, very picturesque mountain town, renowned páramo not so far away.

Real steep hike up through the woods to an overlook with a tiny folkloric chapel. Beautiful
amanita muscaria mushrooms all over.

Psychoactive. Fifty years ago I'd have been hitting on these...

that's a mushroom with a psychoactive molecule that passes through intact.
iirc, lsd does too. quickly, even. by the time your balls are tripping, it's gone.

some drug users might ought to mine their wiz for reusables.
rumor has it that Siberian shaman ate the amanitas first, and suffered the digestive woes.
the disciple gets the pee and an easier ride.
possibly a mushroom-pee enema would serve too.
though kinky, depending on the
shaman

Yup. Funny part was there was a little folkloric chapel on top of the rock where the trail led past all the mushrooms as well as all 14 catholic-peon stations of the cross on the climb up, you know, Jesus falls the first time, Jesus falls the second time, Jesus meets his mother, Jesus drinks some psychoactive urine.

I started leaving 100, 200, 500 peso coins at some of the stations of the cross like it made up for all the quarters and dimes I had stolen a long time ago from the stations of the cross at Holy Hill where we'd ridden bikes up to in the summer as kids.

People from Milwaukee and Chicago would drink the holy water, throw coins at the statutes in the stations of the cross there for good luck. When they were gone I'd squeeze around the fence and pick them up off the cement. Buy cheeseburgers and fries and milkshakes at a tiny drive-in on the bike ride back.

beautiful.

hey! rough game! much chaos and heartache as Argentina scores one.
America doesn't grok the scale of real football. It's the planet's game.

Oh. Is that why all these damned fools around the world are drinking their own pee? If I had known this decades ago, I'd never have left the house!
