The pictures are haunting.  They look like a post-zombie apocalypse after the zombies died from lack of human brains.

Fascinating stuff.  The one I personally find creepiest would probably be the Ukranian city of Pripyat, but only barely.

Brings back memories of playing one of the Call of Duty or Medal of Honor fps games.
Any time is a good time for pie.

Looks like the Sarlacc has taken up residence in Eastern Siberia.

It would be so cool to don a radiation suit and prowl through Pripyat. 

I saw an article a while back where this woman took a scooter ride through Chernobyl or somewhere like that and took pictures and then blogged it.  It was very cool and very spooky.

I'll see if I can find it.

Ok, here's the homepage: http://www.kiddofspeed.com/

And here's where the photos actually start.  You have to hang with it; the layout is pretty amateur.

if Gus would post a crotch shoot we could add a 39th place.  ;)
Jarhead - Yeah. You're probably right.

Gus - I use sweatpants with flannel shorts to soak up my crotch sweat.

Banzai Cat - There is no "partial credit" in grammar. Like anal sex. It's either in, or it's not.

Mirth - We learned long ago that they key isn't to outrun Star, it's to outrun Gus.

Martok - I don't know if it's possible to have an "anti-boner"...but I now have one.

Gus - Celery is vile and has no reason to exist. Like underwear on Star.

All that is gold does not glitter,
Not all those who wander are lost;
The old that is strong does not wither,
Deep roots are not reached by the frost.

I wonder if that woman had a death wish.

Now, the problem is, how to divide five Afghans from three mules and have two Englishmen left over.
