Sit !!   ...   Damn mask.

Background:

Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19), also known as 2019-nCoV acute respiratory disease (2019-nCoV ARD), is a viral respiratory disease caused by severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2). It is the disease implicated in the 2019-2020 coronavirus pandemic.

The disease was first identified in the city of Wuhan, capital of Hubei province in China, among patients who had developed pneumonia of no clear cause. Amid rapid spread of the disease, the World Health Organization has since declared the outbreak to be a Public Health Emergency of International Concern (PHEIC). Infections have been reported throughout the world, mostly of travelers originating from Mainland China, with local transmission also reported in many countries.

Why you should wear face masks

Go to Index

Why you should wear face masks.  Let me try and make it simple for you ...

The Urine Test

1)  If we all run around naked and someone pees on you, you get wet right away.

2)  If you are wearing pants, some pee will get through - but not as much, so you are better protected.

3)  If the guy who pees is also wearing pants, the pee stays with him and you do not get wet.

Background:

Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19), also known as 2019-nCoV acute respiratory disease (2019-nCoV ARD), is a viral respiratory disease caused by severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2). It is the disease implicated in the 2019-2020 coronavirus pandemic.

If Donald Trump had captained the Titanic

Go to Index

If Donald Trump had captained the Titanic ...

- There is no iceberg.
- We won't hit an iceberg.
- I knew it was an iceberg
  before anyone else knew.
- No one knows icebergs better than I do.
- The penguins brought the iceberg here.
- No one could have predicted the iceberg.
- We cannot allow an iceberg to stop our ship.
- The crew is spreading fake news about icebergs.
- Some of you have to drown.
- I am the best captain, ask anyone.

Captain Smith of the Titanic went down
with the ship.

Captain Donald Trump would have been
on the very first life boat,
and won't be sharing it with others.

But before then, Donald Trump would tell everyone
there are just a few liters of seawater
in the lower decks;
once it get's warmer they'll dry out
and everything will be fine.


Background: Donald Trump is regarded by all
as the worst president of the United States !

The above joke is a reference to his handling of
the Coronavirus / COVID-19 pandemic in 2020 ...

You can substituted "iceberg" in the joke with
"Coronavirus".

People said they would rather die
instead of voting for Hillary Clinton
in the 2016 US presidential election.

Well, they reaped what they sowed ...
They are dying now from Coronavirus,
all because they voted for Donald Trump  :-)

Mammatus clouds

Go to Index

Mammatus clouds are pouch-like protrusions hanging from the undersides of clouds, usually thunderstorm anvil clouds, but other types of clouds as well.

Composed primarily of ice, these cloud pouches are visible in the sky for only about 10 to 15 minutes.

Aside from their magnificent beauty, mammatus clouds are interesting in part because they are formed by sinking air; whereas most clouds are formed by rising air.

You can use Google to search for beautiful images of mammatus clouds. But I had the good fortune to witness one while going to a hiking trip in Glenbrook Gorge in Blue Mountains, NSW, Australia.

It was my first time to see such clouds !
I was driving at the time. I saw the clouds but didn’t have a chance to stop the car.

But 老炊 had the opportunity to snap this picture over Glenbrook Railway Station.

Russells Needle, Nattai Nat Pk, NSW, Australia

This is the second time Alan, Yus, Lisa and I
climbed Russells Needle in Nattai Nat Pk, NSW.

The first time was 4 months ago, from north-east.
Photographs and trip report are in this link:

This time, the same gang climb it from the south.

Since not many people have successfully
reached the summit of Russells Needle,
would climbing it twice qualify us as experts
on this peak ??? 😊😊😊

A detailed trip report will be written up one day.
For now, enjoy these pictures.

5)  The final ascent.
- It is quite a challenge, not for the faint hearted.
- Some photographs from the internet
  show climbers using a rope to climb up here.
  Us 4 intrepid climbers don't need any rope 😊
