The Phantom Cold Spot
In 2004, astronomers discovered a massive void in space so cold and so empty that it shouldn't exist according to our understanding of the universe, and thirteen years later, we still have no idea what created it or what it means for reality itself.

The Kelpies and The Falkirk Wheel
The Kelpies The Kelpies A few years ago I was driving up the M9 towards Dollar in Scotland, it was dark and raining and suddenly I nearly crashed the car when I saw two huge hundred-foot-high horses' heads to my left-hand side. I had to pull over. I am not sure if I tried to take a photograph but I was dumbfounded.

Where Hills Speak and Water Remembers:
When I first saw Nazareth’s skyline rising from the Galilean hills, it felt more like stepping into a long-held memory than just arriving somewhere new. Stone buildings tumbled down the slopes, with minarets and bell towers reaching into the same sky. Still, I was drawn to one place above all: the striking, modern Basilica of the Annunciation.

Tinkertown's Carnival World:
By Brian D'Ambrosio Tucked into the ponderosa pines of the Sandia Mountains east of Albuquerque, New Mexico, Tinkertown Museum is a hand-built labyrinth of imagination, humor, and eccentricity. More than a roadside attraction, it is a folk-art environment—part carnival, part curiosity cabinet, and part autobiography—created by one man with an inexhaustible drive to turn ordinary junk into wonder. That man was Ross J. Ward, a carnival painter, sculptor, and tinkerer whose restless creativity produced one of the most enchantingly eccentric places in America.

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.

The I Love Lucy Mosaic
The I Love Lucy Mosaic now has become a part of the Lucy Desi Museum in Jamestown,New York. When they were putting together the mosaic fans were invited to send in pictures to be a part of the mosaic and I sent one or two and they were all added and I even have one photo on Desi's cheek. The Ones I had sent in were me dressed as Ricky Ricardo at the Tropicana before it was Club Babalu and me with the Lucy Ricardo statue at Madam Toussands. I have a copy of the mosaic i just have yet to find a frame.

Diana The Musical
Diana, the musical is really princess. Diana‘s life story told in musical form. I had the honor and privilege of seeing the musical production when it came to Netflix and it was worth the wait. One time I was in New York City and I happen to find a brochure advertising the musical play And that’s how I found out that they were doing Diana the musical and that’s how I found out even existed at all. I would imagine it was on West End too, which is the London equivalent to Broadway whereas Broadway is the American equivalent to the west end and vice versa. Diana, the musical is really really good. The songs are great and this is the new age of Broadway because they they’ve actually found new ways to do the set designs and what not it’s very futuristic. It’s very cool as it should be. The singers are spot onand it all works very well.
