Look, a Jackalope!

 The topic of Jackalope's came up in a conversation with my family earlier today, and it reminded me of something fun I wanted to share.

I used to be really into a card game called Yugioh when I was younger, and I still get enjoyment out of it today. One of the reasons I liked Yugioh so much is because of its use of archetypes. Which are groups of cards that all follow a running theme. Which meant that a player could personalize their deck of cards around a specific archetype/theme that they really liked. And I've learned that Yugioh has recently come out with a new archetype of cards called Danger! cards, which are all cards that are based off of the theme of Cryptids.

Cryptids being various animals/creatures that people will claim exist, even though no proof has ever been found.

 Examples include: Bigfoot, the Lochness Monster, Chupacabra, etc... 

And one of these Yugioh Danger! cards is based off of a cryptid that I was first introduced to by my mother. So, when I became aware of this card's existence I just had to share.

So, without a further a do, allow me to introduce you to:

Isn't it cute! :)

What is That?

 I am only being rhetorical when I ask that. I know exactly what this is, a Tesla Cybertruck. Tesla's new line of electric cars that I guess are supposed to look flashy and futuristic. And while I may not be a car guy, even I can tell that if this design is supposed to be the future of cars, then the future truly is a dark and scary place. In all serious though. This was only my second time seeing a car like this in St. Louis. So they clearly are not catching on to much here in the mid-west. Although that does raise the question of if they are catching on more so in other parts of the country? And if so then where? Just so I know where I should avoid :)

KC Wolf

 As most of you probably now I started my first "Big Boy Job" this February as an Environmental Program Analyst for the Missouri Department of Natural Resources in St. Louis. During my first few months at my new position my manager invited me to attend a 3-day MDNR conference which began the very last way I expected it to, with an opening speech by the mascot of the Kansas City Chiefs. A.K.A. KC Wolf. He told us some stories about himself, mostly regarding some memorable events that have happened to him over his career as a mascot. Including the time he almost died when we fell from a zip line down onto the seats of a stadium during a half-time show. He then allowed us to take photos with him, as well as pass out a signed poster and KC Wolf tokens as souvenirs. And before you ask, yes, I took both a poster and token as well.

St. Louis Science Center

 The most recent place I've visited was the St. Louis Science Center. A location I have vague memories of visiting when I was little, but not much more than that. So I decided to take a stroll down memory lane. And sure enough. I took one look at this T-Rex animatronic near the center's entrance and I immediately got hit with a wave of nostalgia. I also wound up having good timing because the center was housing a display of Sue the T-Rex when I visited. Sue is famous among dino lovers for being both the largest and most complete tyrannosaurs-rex skeleton that has yet been found. And I've said it before and I'll say it again. As much as a love dinosaurs, I am also extremely grateful that we humans never crossed paths with them. As this reconstruction of Sue should clearly demonstrate.
