    According to NPR, Baluchi tried to take the wheel out on voyages in 2014, 2016, and 2021, all of which were intercepted by the US Coast Guard.

    He attempted it again in August 2023, when he was intercepted about 70 miles off Tybee Island, Georgia.

    When he was stopped, he reportedly told officials he was trying to ‘run to London’ in his DIY watercraft.

    A complaint filed against Baluchi by the US Coast Guard said they quickly determined that he was ‘conducting a manifestly unsafe voyage’ on the vessel that was ‘afloat as a result of wiring and buoys’.

    To make matters worse, Baluchi had attempted to set off on the voyage as officials were preparing for a hurricane to arrive in the area. worse, Baluchi had attempted to set off on the voyage as officials were preparing for a hurricane to arrive in the area.

    ^^^^^^^How would one even come up with a fleeting thought like that let alone build it and head off toward London? The herb superb must be especially superb in Florida.

    Absolutely looks funny, but also 100% AI.

    If you look at the picture it doesn’t make any sense, in only the way a computer can mess it up.

    The plan was to spy on China, which had just detonated an atomic bomb. Stunned, the C.I.A. dispatched the climbers to set up all this gear — including the 50-pound, beach-ball-size nuclear device — on the roof of the world to eavesdrop on Chinese mission control.

    But right as the climbers were about to push for the summit, the weather went haywire. The wind howled, the clouds descended, a blizzard swept in and the top of the forbidding mountain, called Nanda Devi, suddenly disappeared in a whiteout.

    The climbers scampered down the mountain after stashing the C.I.A. gear on a ledge of ice, abandoning a nuclear device that contained nearly a third of the total amount of plutonium used in the Nagasaki bomb.

    It hasn’t been seen since.

    And that was 1965.

    'NO SENSE' Amazon Prime slammed as ‘abomination’ after removing crucial scene from iconic holiday film
    Fans of the iconic film, which follows the life of banker George Bailey, say Amazon cut what many consider the entire point of the movie. The outrage centers on the missing “Pottersville scene,” where George wishes he had never been born and is shown how much worse the world would be without him.

    George tells his guardian angel Clarence that he feels better off dead than alive. Clarence then walks him through an alternate version of his town, one shaped by George’s absence showing how different and darker life would have been without his good deeds.

    The experience ultimately helps George realize he really does have a wonderful life.

    "Say it ain't so" Amazo!

    My wife was banned from the face book site, for a short time, for saying one of her homemade quilts are made fabric made in Mexico.

    WTF is this censoring BS?
