OTBR: Estonian Sunset

Latitude: N 59° 12.840
Longitude: E 023° 32.772

A child on a road trip with his family asks, "Where are we?" and the father answers, "Let's check the map. We're off the blue roads [the Interstate Highways marked in blue on the road atlas]. We're off the red roads [the US and state highways]. We're off the black roads [the county highways]. I think we're off the map altogether." It was always my dream to be off the map altogether.

After the jump, a few of the random places (and I mean random literally) that I visited vicariously last month that are "off the blue roads".

Repeat Tweets: Donald Trump is a Shape Shifting Lizard

Repeat tweets from August, 2016:

  • Aug 2 2016: Fun pastime. Type "Donald Trump is..." into Google and see what Google suggests. I got "Donald Trump is a shape shifting lizard."
  • Aug 2 2016: Less fun pastime. Type "Hillary Clinton is..." into Google and see what Google suggests. I got HRC "is winning" and HRC "is a man."
  • Aug 2 2016: MT @GPollowitz: "Katrina Pierson just blamed Obama and Clinton for changing the ROE that "probably" cost Cptn Kahn his life." North Texas's own Katrina Pierson says time-traveling Obama is responsible for Capt Kahn's death in 2004.

After the jump, more repeat tweets.
