Watch today is a Soviet-made handwound “medical watch” from 1989 by Slava. The scales help you determine the patient’s heart rate. You must wait until the seconds hand reaches 0 or 30, then count 15 patient pulses. Where the seconds hand is on the scale at that moment is the heart rate.

But as I travel’d hither through the land,
I find the people strangely fantasied,
Possess’d with rumors, full of idle dreams,
Not knowing what they fear, but full of fear.

The extent to which the studio fucked us over was utter, but Robert was the one whose career suffered hideously, unjustly. I would be invited to write more screenplays, which I did, my heart aching for him. So glad he’s back. Admire him hugely.
‘He pulled out [images] that spoke to his own experience of being American and rendered them in meticulously refined detail. He simplified and reverted to his strengths, but the experience with his Hollywood debut was so traumatizing that he never made another movie’ www.nytimes.com/2025/08/12/t...

A Humpback whale swallowed a 24 yr old kayaker off the Strait of Magellen in Chile…then spit him out!
A father and son were in the Patagonia region when a whale gulped down the young man, then released him! The son said he thought he was going to die, but then his life vest pulled him up.
