Halloween with two of my grand daughters

These are fresh from Facebook courtesy of my youngest daughter.
Bailee is in the fried egg and Piper is the Goth Bride! 
They live in our house in Wichita, Kansas.

Stolen from my sister

Dennis Miller: What kind of morally bankrupt cretin tells my teenage daughter that voting for him is the same as losing your virginity?

It does make one go Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm

Or does it cause one to become angry and outraged at such conduct?

I go with the latter.  

Got to hand it to Dennis Miller for the description of the current occupant: morally bankrupt cretin is a new one on me. 

That description seems so fitting as observing the current occupant's demeanor and carriage during this campaign season.  

The photographer at Auschwitz: Man forced to take chilling images of inmates and their Nazi guards was haunted until his death at 94

From the Daily Mail.

Photographer Wilhelm Brasse died this week aged 94

He had taken up to 50,000 photos in Auschwitz for the Nazis

Mr Brasse hid negatives which were used to convict the very Nazis who commissioned them

Frightened victims: Wilhelm Brasse took some 40,000-50,000 photographs inside Aushwitz for the Nazis including these shots of Czeslawa Kwoka after she was beaten by a guard

 The full story with photos and a video.........

Sobering it truly is.

Banning Food Trucks And Man Camps Is Creating A Development Bubble In Western ND

I found this little tidbit at Say Anything Blog from North Dakota.
Western ND is sort of an old stomping ground when I was on the ballast trains and our most esteemed Blog Bud Buck Pennington when he was in the Air Force.
There is an oil boom in places like Williston, Minot, Stanley and other little hamlets along the Glasgow Subdivision and US Route 2.

Ghosts of war: Artist superimposes World War II photographs onto modern pictures of the same street scenes
| Mail Online
 
This haunting collection of images shows what it would look like if the ghosts of World War II returned to our streets.
The remarkable pictures overlay modern scenes from France with atmospheric photographs taken in the same place during the war.
Historical expert Jo Teeuwisse, from Amsterdam, began the project after finding 300 old negatives at a flea market in her home city depicting familiar places in a very different context.
 

Really awesome stuff here. Go and have a look!
