Friday Ephemera
Deploy. || Disgorge. (h/t, Matthew) || Luna Lee does Game of Thrones. || Neural network attempts to finish the Game of Thrones saga for George R. R. Martin. It’s a mixed bag. || Giant gummy squid kit. || Gyroscopic balancing buses. (h/t, Things) || ‘X-ray’ maps of New York subway stations. || “The wall stabilised East Germany’s economy, by preventing its workforce from leaving.” || The decline and fall of the Walnut Whip. || Title sequence of note. || Signage of note. (h/t, dicentra) || Today’s word is prang. || Their flower parade is better than yours. || Mixing mercury and aluminium. || Harsh. || This. || How Siri’s voice has changed. || Colouring and activity books for David Lynch’s Dune. || Furnishings of note. (h/t, Julia) || And finally, a secret VIP rave hidden inside a toilet.
Speaking of choosing poorly, there is never a meteor around when you need one.

Oh, but that’s an oldie. WWII RAF fighter pilot slang for cracking up one’s aircraft, typically on landing:
“Oh, bloody hell! Sgt Pilot Smith has pranged his kite.”
Currently doing some reading on assorted actors, including Ralph Richardson and Larry Olivier.

Yes, that one is good.
I’ve been doing a bit of VHS research and recovery recently, and while doing that also ran across Parrot Sketch Not Included, and Life of Python, both of which look very interesting . . .
