A fun little sign I saw in a pub in Charleston, South Carolina… Simple Brilliance = Ben Franklin Not bad for a guy that only went to school until the 5th Grade!
Street musicians are commonplace in cities throughout the UK and the world – this chap was something different. / He had built himself a machine with which he could play the Dobro guitar with his feet, while also playing the violin. His right foot operated a treadle which caused the guitar to be strummed and his left operated levers which changed the chords! / Not only a good musician but an inventor too!
We’ve all been there.
So what makes these new pulsar beam swords more than / eexxxttttrrrrraaaaaa-ex-ordinary Bashir? Well ambassador Crenitar Canasect Beetlepillar Slugwasp, you will not be disappointed after your 559 light year journey. These are outfitted with the most powerful pleasing paisley lOve known to all species kind. As shown on the wall screen behind me they even have built in “GPS” [Galactic Positioning Satellite] as demonstrated locator so you can always stay in touch with the Pakistani Starfleet or the Crenitar Canasect High Command making them the ultimate anti-bad dOve weapon you will ever ever see!

On dusty desert Goddard tried / Inventions that he did provide / His vision, gravity defied / By rocket science yet untried / / Skeptics ridiculed worldwide / Said his brains were surely fried / They truly hurt him deep inside / So desert he did pick to hide / / He tucked away his battered pride / The desert had him find his stride / Then ridicule did soon subside / With seventy patents by his side / / This painting was inspired by Dr. Robert H. Goddard, the original rocket scientist. This painting shows Dr. Goddard in his old Model A Ford with one of his rockets in tow on the New Mexico desert. At his high school graduation he gave a speech including his most / famous quote, “It is difficult to say what is impossible, for the dream of yesterday is the hope of today and reality of tomorrow.” / / After graduating from college he taught physics at Clark University in his home town. Unlike his Russian and German counterparts Goddard’s rocket science was more experimental than theoretical. In all, he was granted seventy patents for his inventions. / / In 1920 the Smithsonian published Goddard’s famous paper, “A Method of Attaining Extreme Altitudes”, in which he described how a rocket could be sent to the Moon. The idea was greeted with skepticism from scientists and hysterical laughter from the media. The New York Times published a scornful editorial ridiculing Goddard for this fanciful notion. Goddard was stung by the criticism and spent the rest of his life avoiding publicity. / / It is very sad, that even now, society ridicules those with visions that are not aligned with their own. The lesson to learn here from Goddard, is to never let those that ridicule or oppose your vision to stand in your way, as it will often be you that gets that last laugh when you pursue your dream. / / This painting was created in Photoshop. I first spent many hours restoring a very old and damaged public domain photo, which I am thinking about making available as well due to the quality of the restoration. Then I used the restoration to create the digital painting. Both the painting and the restored photo have been brought up in size tenfold from the original photo, quite a task in itself! They are now both a respectable 4800×3600 pixels at 300 pixels per inch, so the print quality is very good. / /

In 1885, Thomas Edison bought property in Fort Myers, Florida, and built what was later called Seminole Lodge as a winter retreat. Edison and his wife Mina spent many winters in Fort Myers where they recreated and Edison tried to find a domestic source of natural rubber. Henry Ford, the automobile magnate, later lived a few hundred feet away from Edison at his winter retreat in Fort Myers, Florida. Edison even contributed technology to the automobile. They were friends until Edison’s death. Tune in Carlos Santana

“I have no particular talent, I am only passionately curious.” Albert Einstein / That is my favourite quote of all time and I love Einstein… / I was looking for this favourite pic of mine of Einstein on Public Domain to make up an image I have in mind but when I couldn’t find it I thought it would be more fun to draw it, so I did, at 3am in the morning….and here he is….Mr Mad Scientist himself…Albert Einstein, before I turn it into something else…I was pretty happy with it, I am a simple sketch artist, done in Graphite pencil. /
