The Gargoyles of Washington D.C.

Posted on by Professor Gregory Allan Bass, DoGA, PhD (Hon) · 1 Comment

Here in San Diego, we have a section of town called Old Town. Not because it’s particularly old, but because it’s old to us. See, here in San Diego, any structure more than 50 years or so is old razer synapse 2.0en. So whenever I get to travel to the east coast, I love getting a chance to see all the old(er) architecture. I think it’s something people from the east coast see so often, they forget just how beautiful it can be beta download cod. During my time in Montreal, I loved walking around and taking pictures of the buildings built right around 1800 or so. My favorite parts of these buildings were almost always the gargoyles and grotesques 1 lurking at the corners dpd configuration file. I passed by Montreal’s Christ Church Cathedral on my first walk to work and was able to snap a picture of these guys weight watchers starter plan kostenlos downloaden.

As those who listened to our first podcast of the New Year may remember, my resolution this year was to drink more teams download windows. Not just in quantity mind you, but in quality. In that regard (and as Chairman of the League of Gentlemen Adventurers Historical Society), I have sought out a book written in 1939 by a man who I am convinced was a League member in his day Music free converter. His name was Charles H. Baker, Jr. and he was one of the true cocktail connoisseurs wie kann ich gif herunterladen. His book, Around the World with Jigger, Beaker and Flask, is the chronicle of a trip through exotic locales via cocktail recipes lebenslauf muster word kostenlos. Perhaps it is because it was written so soon after The Noble Experiment, but every page of this book conveys a love and appreciation for the cocktail 360 grad app herunterladen. So it is with great pleasure that I announce that I have finally secured a copy for the LGA Curios Cabinet.

So what makes this book different from other cocktail recipe books out there? Quotes like this one from the Foreword:

“One comfortable fact gleaned from travel in far countries was that regardless of race, creed or inner metabolisms, mankind has always created varying forms of stimulant liquid – each after his own kind. Prohibitions and nations and kings depart, but origin of such pleasant fluid finds constant source.”

Happy Birthday Jules Verne!

As anyone with internet access who uses Google has probably figured out, today is Jules Verne’s birthday herunterladen. His 183rd birthday to be exact. This man is one of the fathers of the modern adventure story. He wrote stories about traveling through air, into space and underwater before any of that was even remotely realistically possible minecraft herunterladen windows 7.

And just in case you don’t know exactly what stories this man wrote, let me toss a few names out there for you. Journey to the Center of the Earth pro7 mediathek filmeen. 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea. Around the World in Eighty Days. From the Earth to the Moon (which you may know better by the film version… that’s the one of the moon with that big bullet in its eye) bloons td 6 download kostenlos. He even had a book published in 1994 (thanks to being found in his safe by his grandson. Er… the book was in the safe that is, not Jules Verne) titled Paris in the Twentieth Century program herunterladen. It was a 1863 vision of what Paris would be like in 1960. And, scary enough, he’s pretty close (closer than Edison anyway) citrix receiver windows downloaden.
