Keeping up Appearances
One saturday night i was watching PBS for their British comedy show block that they used to air and I discovered a great sitcom called “Keeping Up Appearances” that I grew to love and any time I saw it was on I never missed the chance to watch it. The plot is simple Hyacinth wants to be high society and goes on ridiculous hijinks and shinanigans to finally be a member of high society and drives all those crazy with her plans and schemes. The show had lasted for many seasons then went off of the air and then had been brought back for a revival in the mid 90's.

Charleston, Ho! . Winner in Twenty-Four Hours Challenge.
Meet me at my apartment on Central Avenue at lunchtime in the summer of 1997 to begin this trip properly. We’re taking my blue Maxima, and fuck I-20 and I-26. We’re taking the backroads through Williston and Blackville, Denmark and Bamberg. We’re going to slip down the Piedmont to the Coastal Plain on a two-lane blacktop. You’ll know when it happens, the land leveling out from those long, steep hills on 28, the ones that crest so high you can see into the next county.

A Day In Settle
Introduction Settle is a favourite holiday haunt of ours. The first time we stayed we brought a car. It was parked, and it never moved til we left. Since then we have stayed for a week or two each year, getting there by train from Newcastle to Carlisle, then Carlisle to Settle over the Ribblehead Viaduct.

The Statue of Zeus at Olympia Review
⭐⭐⭐⭐☆ (4/5) — “Family resemblance unclear, but strong presence.” Visited the Statue of Zeus at Olympia after receiving surprising DNA ancestry results suggesting a possible connection to Zeus through a half-mortal lineage about 94 generations ago. Apparently, I am related to Helen of Troy, Zeus' daughter via a swan incident and the woman who accidentally caused a war in her time and most recently - Elon Musk's wrath.

Medea’s Quick Divorce
Dear Jason, Please use this letter as a quick divorce approval you requested, you poor gelded ram. Did you really think I'd give you my best golden fleece? The problem with you lost travelers is that you never know the highest quality of either the sheep or the gold-gathering fleece. Since your departure, I've put a dozen of new fleece in my quarters, both on the walls and the floor for rugs. I literally walk and sleep on gold.

10 Times Tourists Completely Ruined Priceless History
There’s something magnetic about ancient architecture and historic artifacts. Whether it’s a crumbling amphitheater, a sacred temple high in the mountains, or a centuries-old painting in a quiet chapel, we’re drawn to these places. Maybe it’s the mystery. Maybe it’s the legends. Maybe it’s the simple realization that these structures have survived hundreds, sometimes thousands of years.
