When a website advises me to check for viruses, they're either malicious or misguided.

"Temporary access to the web property"? Who talks like that? Digital marketing shills.

1988 and 1960 calendars recycle in 2016. 2016 is a leap year, so there aren't as many as usual.

I recommend this 1960 Peruvian police calendar.

This one would be the dream, though.

(I'm going to have to put my 1998 Krazy Kat calendar back in storage for 11 years.)

The weird tax one I would actually like.

You know, lisapea, I take back the photo of the matlok tag. The recycled calendars are a really good idea!

I have NoScript set to block everything. But I enabled scripts for the site itself (and only the site) and could see the calendar. No Captcha garbage necessary.

Thank you. I was deeply offended by that photo.

Matlock's fancy car that he uses to impress the ladies is a base model Honda fit, in raspberry blue. It's actually really cute.

Oh, those are really nice. I might actually get one or two. The one for The Origin of Species might look good in my office, for example.


I have to nitpick the Tarzan of the Apes poster, as it shows Tarzan swinging from a vine. Burroughs was quite clear in the book that Tarzan does not swing from tree to tree via vines; he brachiates. That makes a lot more sense as a means of locomotion through a jungle canopy, though it would require a fantastic amount of upper body strength in a human, since our arms aren't built for it, like a gibbon's arms are.

Despite what the "Tarzan" movies suggest, liana vines grow from the ground up, not from the canopy down. Thus, any free-hanging vine Tarzan should happen to encounter would almost-certainly be dead, and would either break or detach the moment Tarzan grabbed it and tried to swing. That would make for a short but exciting movie, as Tarzan would then plummet to his death.

Maybe Tarzan could brachiate around the jungle regularly preparing his routes? He would tie fresh vines to strong branches and cut down any vines past their sell-by-date.
