Amusing mix up. I intended to post a piece by a Dad who ate the lunch at his kids school. The food was pretty grim.

I think that this qualifies as a WTF moment...

This pirate ship installation is impressive even by American standards! Situated in Lorain, Ohio, this Halloween scene, which looks like something you would expect to see on the set of Pirates of the Caribbean, was built by Ricky Rodriguez who wanted to create something unique for the popular holiday event.

Very impressive.

That is awesome. I can imagine my brother doing something like that.

I wonder what kind of permits and red tape that required?

Just as bizarre is the "professional twerker" in the next picture at the link.:rolleyes:

The boat was probably already there, in preparation for flooding from Lake Erie. ;)

He did something similar last year which...

Ohio home’s Halloween pirate ship grabs attention

Pirate ship Halloween decorations thrill neighbors on Tacoma Avenue in Lorain

Might have a bit of time later to look at Street View and find out what the house looks like the rest of the year.

It that type of neighborhood, most places (except Texas) require permits for a damn tree house or playground type stuff these days. The nanny state wants to be sure nobody can get hurt from falling off, on being fallen on in a wind, plus flammability. Of course most of that comes under a "because we can" power trip. :eyebrow:

Koryo Air. The World's worst airline.
 
With its Soviet-era planes, rudimentary safety belts, and reputation for questionable safety standards, Air Koryo is unlikely to appeal to nervous fliers.

This really is a minor niggle. Nothing wrong here that a bootful of opposite rudder won't put right.***

Koryo Air: on board the world's 'worst' airline

"Guaranteed to land".

You always have to be avoiding airplane poison.

One drop will kill ya.

Yeah but that 1957 seating configuration looks more appealing than some current layouts.
