In hopes to fit into a flames theme I add this ( or The Flames, capitalization? )
In case it all goes south & you really need to get out of the Flames

Dave Karl
He might have known his fate as a larger than small person , by 25 he was a big boy then I lost track of him.
He went to work for Petzl though, and is more than likely a lurker
somewhere, if anyone knows that big cat it would be fun to hear from him.
I think I'll try to look him up, he carried a camera BITD .. . .

Wild Angels Revisited
•Peter Fonda as Heavenly Blues
•Nancy Sinatra as Mike
•Bruce Dern as Joe Loser Kearns
•Diane Ladd as Gaysh
•Buck Taylor as Dear John
•Norman Alden as Medic
•Michael J. Pollard as Pigmy
•Rick Sylvester as Jumper
... according to literature promoting the film, members of the Hells Angels from Venice, California. Members of the Coffin Cheaters motorcycle club also appeared.
But where were the Wild Angels from you ask?

Photobucket, sir. It's hooblie's fault for letting me know how to do these borderless images.
I just use the editing tools they have sparingly.
I pre-edit most shots before uploading to the service, which is acting fickle lately, as is to be expected.
And thanks. Coming from my ideel, that's quite a compliment. :0)

Close, but San Pedro is even closer.
Meanwhile in the Seal News O' The Day
Baby seal crossed busy Calif. highway and survived
Police say the seal -- somehow -- got out of the water, crossed busy Interstate 880 and found its way to the bushes.
I'd be willing to bet that this sort of thing never happens in Merced.
News O' the Weird
A Polish court ruled Thursday that the state was right to terminate the lease of Hitler's World War II bunker to a private company that failed to pay rent or upgrade it as a tourist attraction.

I visited your page which interestingly enough appears to be called MousefromMerced's Bucket.. The photos are all nice.
It wanted me to update my software for viewing.
I tried to give you a couple ⋆ ⋆, but it wanted me to login.
I think I have a phtobucket account somewhere ... hmmmmmm ... I can't recall

Nothing Berserk
Salami and jack with a pickle
On a piece of flaxseed bread
Smear it good with mustard
And stick it in your head
If your tongue begins to tingle
You'll know that you're not dead
If your stomach's getting full now
You'll know that you've been fed
And crack open a beverage
Choose your favorite icy drink
Or a bottle of cold water
If that is what you think
Will serve to whet your whistle
And will turn your toenails pink
But drink nothing unfiltered
From your rusty kitchen sink
Then go and climb a mountain
Or a sport route if your psyched
Or run an extra mile
Or head out on your bike
Take a long walk down the beach
Or a mellow meadow hike
Or jump out of an airplane
Go spelunking if you'd like
If you'd like to take a swim
And a sauna when you're through
Or you're feeling kind'a sleepy
And you think a nap will do
Or you feel something quite different
And you're thinking something too
Well that isn't my department
Whatever does ensue
That's what happens when I lunch
And my brains begin to work
My mind no longer idles
And my toes begin to jerk
And my attitude gets better
As I start to show some perk
When I'm way more contemplative
And less inclined to go berserk

Could be Central Cal, no?
and finally, Elvis at the Choo Choo
For you sir, that will be ten cents. Hershey definitely stands out. Do you think the guy knew Elvis was eating breakfast behind him?

WE have a vote for Chatanooga and the Central Valley not looking alike.
I'm still searching for the fool who said they did. I'd ask Elvis or Paul Newman, but they are both dead.
Piper?

I wouldn't swear to it, but those appear to be Almond Joys next to the Hershey Bars in front of Elvis. They are made by Hershey these days but originated in Boston the same year I was born.
So I guess the Broncos will go down in four this weekend. This according to the big rock candy, paper, Edward Scissorhands method of scoring.
Could be Paul Newman and Piper Laurie, but probably not.

Thank you, God, for the wonderful Range of Light I see out my window.
Welcome to Ducktown, TN, one of the longest-lasting environmental fiascos in the history of mining in the USA, created by greed and ignorance.

Take the Broncos and three points.
Great recipe for a healthy half-time snack.

Nice sight(s) to wake up to mfm.
The Duck-town Incident could possibly provide an explanation of Herr Braun's anti-industrial inclinations, eh?
Many folks are Satisfied just to crow over their Roosters, excepting of course the other Brian (Jones) who is dead also. He did pick up a virus in America ya know.

That said. Hire a good lawyer.
Mexicali Rose v. Superior Court, 1 Cal. 4th 67 (1992), was a Supreme Court of California case in which the court’s decision held that restaurants, grocery stores, and other food service establishments in California can be held liable for injuries sustained by patrons from foreign objects—including natural food parts—that are left in food

Everyone's favorite half-time snack is one inspired by that man^^^.
Flame broiled Rocky Mountain Oysters--Great Balls of Fire?
My restaurant features flame broiled Rocky Mountain Oysters. Would Great Balls of Fire be a good menu name?
Good name - truth in advertising. I have a friend who ranches in the midwest plains, he is willing to ship u some if ur supply chain gets disrupted. I think Prarie Oysters would be a reasonable substitute or even an addition to the menu so ppl have a choice.
Goodness Gracious ! Yes !
They will not go over if the are flamed. Nice try though.
Hey! For your restaurant's' theme-song you could use Elvis's "Hunk-a Burnin' Love."
In the same vein--
The Mountain Oyster Fry
Virginia City
Sometimes, there is just no accounting for taste. Literally. While some towns are content to host simple rib cook-offs or chili contests, Virginia City is home to the annual Mountain Oyster Fry, which most locals prefer to call “the Testicle Festival.”
Early March, teams of contestants, known as “gonadologists,” cook up sheep testicles in a variety of dishes. Started in 1991, the event attracts as many as two dozen teams of cooks from around the country who prepare tasty testicular treats. The rules are pretty simple: Each team must cook up at least twenty pounds of mountain oysters, and all cooking must be done in the parking lot of the Bucket of Blood saloon, without the advantage of electrical plug-ins. Chefs can prepare them in any style, using any sauce or garnish.
A panel of judges samples the creatively concocted cojones and pronounces winners in such categories as best overall taste, most creative use of flavors, best booth, best first-time cook, and best presentation. The event attracts about twelve thousand spectators, many of whom wander the booths and sample the wares. Reflecting the flavor of the cook-off, many teams adopt colorful names, such as “Clammy Balls,” “Galletti’s Gonads,” “Great Balls of Fire,” and “the McCastrate Sisters.” Dishes have included oyster po’ boys, Eunuch Nachos, lamb nut chowder, and coconut curry balls.
Yum.
