Jackie, mascot of the 3rd south african infantry regiment
Jackie was a baboon and before the War was the beloved pet of the Marr family from Villiera near Pretoria and especially Albert Marr, the son. When Albert Marr attested at Potchefstroom on the 25th August 1915, he asked permission to bring Jackie along with him. Because Jackie was so well behaved and had an impressive bearing, Jackie was adopted as regimental Mascot of the 3rd South African Infantry Regiment and taken on strenght as a member of his Regiment.
On arrival in England he was provided with a special uniform and cap with the badges of his regiment.
He was allowed in the trenches and was a firm favourite and comrade on action service. His acute hearing and eyesight were very useful with Albert, his master whilst on sentry duty.
Jackie would salute officers, use a knife and fork in the correct manner and would light up cigarettes or pipes for comrades.
When Albert was wounded in 1916 by a bulllet in a shoulder, Jackie was beside himself and attempted to comfort the prostrate Albert, even licking his wound.
Jackie was wounded near La Clyte in 1918 by a shell splinter, Albert being wounded by the same shell. Jackie was amputated of his right leg. It was the end of his active service and with Albert they received much publicity whilst recovering from their wounds in Britain. They raised thousand of pounds for the Red Cross and took part in several events. At one such event it was possible to buy a kiss from Jackie for 5 shillings or a handshake for 2/6d.
He was officially discharged at Cape Town on the 26th April 1919 and on discharge wore one gold wound stripe and three blue service chevrons for 1916, 1917 and 1918 active service.

Starbuck’s only customer with a brain
Apparently the only person with a brain that goes to Starbucks (yes, I know that’s an oxymoron) has crafted a kick-ass TIE Fighter from just cups and other crappy disposables from Starbucks as well as PC speakers.

Anyone ever read the Akira manga? I just finished it the other day. Only about 100 times better than the movie, if you ever saw it..

From Moonrise to Sunset
Explanation: In this panorama of Earth and sky recorded on Thursday, November 13, the Full Moon rises along the eastern horizon at the far left. Of course, the Full Moon rises at sunset and that Thursday’s setting Sun was also captured at the far right. In between, 17 digital images are stitched together to follow the horizon to the south in a lovely twilight portrait of the city of Lisbon, Portugal. The serene view takes in part of the longest bridge in Europe, the Vasco da Gama bridge, beneath the rising Moon and ends at the mouth of the Tagus River looking west toward the sunset and the Atlantic Ocean. The photographer’s vantage point was Lisbon’s 100 foot high Cristo Rei monument on the south bank of the Tagus, at the foot of the port city’s other famous bridge, the Ponte 25 de Abril.

Tahiti
A mass of fluffy white clouds crowns the lush hills of the island of Tahiti. Tahiti and her 13 sister islands make up the Society Islands, tiny volcano- and coral-studded protrusions of land that dot the South Pacific about halfway between Australia and South America.
The Darkness
I am the devil, the Devil I am
And I wait for the coming of
An innocent man
Be he young or be he old
Be his pockets full of gold
Be he happy or rich or wise
Be the ocean as blue as his eyes
I’ll wait for his coming at the midnight hour
I’ll pickle his soul, and turn it sour
For once his innocent heart I see
That innocent man belongs to me
