you had me at the pic - not an airplane buff but the SR-71 was built and housed in Burbank close to where I grew up. Lockheed Martin Skunk Works. In 1990 it went for one last record-breaking run before retirement from LA to DC in just over an hour. They refueled over the Pacific first and I remember the sonic boom as it passed over LA
It’s always a mind bender to pick just one. But given our recent conversation on Chuck Norris, I’d say that was a great wrap. The fact that Sweden has over 200k islands is hard to fathom. How do they keep track of all those? There must be some official who oversees that data.
It's an overload of mind-blowing facts actually. So it's difficult to pick a favorite.
Thanks! Appreciate the re-stack!
Harriet the tortoise died, at the age of approximately 175, in June 2006.
Coincidentally, her last carer, Steve Irwin, died in September of the same year; he was only 44.
175, wow, that turtle has seen some things, eh? Thanks for the additions!
…love that illuminated art…
Me too! And no ai...
The one-second year at a glance video concept is wild! I loved it! Thank you!
Yeah, that's pretty cool. For someoe else, though. :)
Haha.
