[QUOTE=Reds;53090420]Nah, I like my current avatar. Besides, I made your previous avatar as well.[/QUOTE]
I meant Trek :v:
But yeah, you christmasified my last one. It was about time to move away from a Christmas themed avatar.

I doubt I did, since I thought you were Trek and was referring to his belt loading avatar. I saw the avatar and didn't read the actual username. I made [I]his[/I] last avatar, but I can't remember what your avatar was right before using this one.
Oh, I had the tiny Confederate flag and weeping KKK guy (:911: parody). I thought you were the one that put the Christmas hat on him. I don't remember who did it then OH WELL sorry I stole your new avatar trek you can have it if you want it back to aux pics
[QUOTE=Grenadiac;53090438]Oh, I had the tiny Confederate flag and weeping KKK guy (:911: parody). I thought you were the one that put the Christmas hat on him.[/QUOTE]
I wasn't. I made Trek's current avatar, and like I said mixed you two up when I responded.
This is the last time I look at an avatar instead of the username before responding to a post, I swear. It ain't worth the trouble.

Somehow this feels sorta sexual
[QUOTE=Ignhelper;53083713]Did you go up victoria peak?[/QUOTE]
Yeah its lovely up there.
I took the tram up to the top, spent most of the day there then walked down.
Kept on seeing some german photographer guy up there, gave him my tram ticket so he could try it out and go on the roof of some building, I wanted to walk down anyway.
Walked round the governers trail, round the road going around the mountain (twice because I wanted to watch the sunset) and also visited some radio thing at the very top but it felt like I shouldn't be there. [URL="https://www.instagram.com/p/BbgTSDtBd_c/"]I did a cringey vid for the radio thing[/URL]
Saw that german guy again the next day near the giant buddha statue. If anyone plans to go to that buddha statue via cablecar, consider paying extra for the glass bottom. Queue is like 5 minutes instead of an hour and there's a big chance you'll get an empty car on the way back down.

Thanks friendo. Not sure if I'm gonna keep this one or not though, I dunno it just doesn't have the same [I]je ne sais quoi[/I] the belt feed one did.
Truly the finest photo ever taken of the father of the montage.

you can tell a guy was influential when the mourners, many of them respected cooks in their own right, show up in uniform instead of traditional funeral dress

It’s even more tragic once you realize Ryan Larkin cleaned himself up not too long after this short came out and started to get back into animation shortly before dying of lung cancer.

I don't know if we have done anything on Lake Baikal but some media on this I just gotta share. Baikal is the world's deepest lake ang home to a large portion of fresh water reaching depths of 1650 m (5400 feet). Located in Siberia, during the winter it can have 2m thick ice along the surface of it, with a surprisingly large number of people willing to walk, skate or even drive on it.

Ritchie Blackmore of Deep Purple blows up a stack of guitar amplifiers and then hurls them off the stage in front of over two hundred thousand people during the explosive climax of the groups's set at the California Jam rock festival, April 6 1974
in addition to the burns caused to the stage by the fireball, Blackmore also destroyed an ABC television camera with his guitar for getting in his way during the gig - the total bill for the damages was 10 000$ (~50 500$ adjusted to inflation), mostly for the camera equipment
after the show the band was rushed into a helicopter and flown out of the festival grounds before the livid TV executives, fire marshals and law enforcement could get their claws on them. the damages were later settled by the group's management.
additionally Blackmore single-handedly delayed Deep Purple's show by an hour by locking himself in the dressing room; the band had chosen to perform during sunset, but the festival was running ahead of schedule and the guitarist felt that the sunset was absolutely needed for the light show.
just another day in the world of absolutely insufferable, absolutely legendary rock musicians.
[img]https://www.boomerpdx.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/02/caljam3.jpg[/img]
the festival was built on the now-long-gone Ontario Motor Speedway motorsport grounds in Ontario, California. it was attended by 250 000 people, give or take, and featured acts like Black Sabbath, Eagles and Emerson, Lake & Palmer on the bill

the event is claimed to hold the record for the most powerful sound system ever built - mostly to answer the demands of Deep Purple, one-time Guinness record holders for loudest band in the world.
the sound setup was assembled from the touring amp systems of several of the bands and further beefed up with additional horns and amplifier rigs, blasting sonic force with a total power of 54000 watts RMS
