Overheard: "it's not necessarily that Irish people don't like the effects of weed. It's that alcohol works so well on us that it can't compare."

Every non-human life form in the universe?
it's a false flag operation. Non-humans disguised as humans see that humans get the blame before going on to their next conquest

helicopters on mars
yay us
They'd better hope Marvin doesn't see that, or he might zap it with his Q36 Explosive Space Modulator.
The helicopter might block his view of Venus.
Back in the early '90's, I took a DC power plant maintenance course at an AT&T facility in Atlanta.An image composition lesson. You'd think that a company that sells tools to woodworkers wouldn't depict missing fingers on the front of their catalog.
Safety training was a major emphasis, and pretty much everywhere you went in the building, there was a poster-sized colour photo of a black man's hand, looking scorched and a little bloody. There was a wedding band on the ring finger, and an arc had clearly taken a big chunk out of the band.
Turned out that it was a white guy's hand, and the black was from the flash burns when his ring shorted a 48V battery terminal.
That image definitely helped to sharpen our attention...

Listened to — very carefully listened to — our rock climbing instructor. He worked on a mountain rescue team. The Real Life ™ moments he was called upon to clean up after are still etched into my memory. He was a highly effective teacher. What learns on the rocks is useful in all places in life, IME.
After 25 years of working in facilities management, and industrial maintenance, I have seen more than my fair share of work place accidents. Fingers smashed, electrical burns, cuts, falls, etc.. In nearly every case it was because the person injured, ignored safety rules, by bypassing safeties, not following proper shutdown procedures, did not attach safety belts, or were engaged in horseplay. The only exception, was when a hydraulic hose blew out just as someone was walking by. I had already sent memos to the department head, to have a guard installed around the hoses and connections, but it was ignored. When OSHA arrived, fines were levied, and guards were installed. They wanted to use me as a scapegoat, but the memos, were personally handed to the OSHA rep by me.

GFCI receptacles only have to been in the electrical circuit. Generally, the GFCI will be in the garage or other covered area on an outside circuit.Electrical receptacle needs to be weather resistant and GFCI type. REPORTED!

Unless the outdoor circuit is it's own circuit. It should at least have a weather cap on it.
This can be pretty much dependent on the inspector's whims anyway.
I was once told to 'correct' the orientation of a 200A breaker panel so that the box was vertical longways.
I had mounted it horizontally. The inspector thought that having the main breaker trip from up to down would cause confusion. And side-to-side would not. Didn't like it. Oh well...
I have seen it on TV mounted horizontally in new construction. No whoop.

right, will find a weather cap. 
there's another lion out of the frame of the photo, but no other outlets
other priorities hold my attention. One of them things that hold my attention from where I write is my view of the woods. It's getting greener by the day. Saw a single fox headed east Sunday morning. Saw something or other that wasn't a fox a couple days prior. I saw a big tail and that's all.
Looks like a deer family moving down the trail above me now. Harder to see, and losing count. Cheeky ones, they are. No Farmer McGregor here. Everything is a meal to them critters. Yep one moving at speed right now. Don't know how they do it. Agile critters ...
I've never decided if sheep are fearless or if they're too dumb to experience fear. They stand on the edges of cliffs without an apparent care. They also stand in the road. The reflected heat from the asphalt makes the road nominally warmer, I'm told.

Sheep, you say? It's a race to the bottom between them, deer and horses:
Sheep have 300 degree peripheral vision, they can see behind without turning their head. Despite having two eyes, they have poor depth perception. This can make them fearless on a cliff. They are smart animals, just under a pig in intelligence. They can also recognize other sheep and people. One thing for sure, sheep poop stinks.
Saw someone running at a good clip with a dog out front not on a leash. When they'd reached a fork, the guy would say turn right or turn left, the dog fully understood. Way smarter than me, I get left and right confused all the time.
