I remember keeping up with the El Faro on the news when all this happened. It was intriguing. It turned out to be bad, real bad.
"The in-depth story of the sinking of the El Faro 2015. The vessel made the headlines when it disappeared on the outskirts of the Bermuda Triangle. The last time anyone heard from those onboard the El Faro was when it headed straight into the heart of Hurricane Joaquin. At dawn, not a single trace remained. The ship had vanished as if it never existed." Source: Dark Records.
Whether it's a ghoul, phantom, revenant, or "what have you," this picture gave me some serious Lovecraft vibes. It reeks of...something. The source is Meta via Spectral Insomnia. The artist is unknown.
Daisy was almost too dark to get a good picture. She belongs to my in-laws; the wife was checking on her while the family was at a doctor's appointment that required them to be gone overnight. She was so cute that I had to take a picture and, naturally, post it.
In this section, I post more pictures of a visit to the Sam Houston Memorial Park, in northwest Red River County, Texas. I think I took these pictures in May of 2025.
General View - Author's Picture
The image shows a general view of the grounds, looking northeast. Mrs. Jane Chandler Gill's head is located right of center. It's the white color, or maybe off white, image. Further back is a monument to Sam Houston. The very large plant in the middle of the picture is a cactus. Learn more here.
Pine Tree - Author's Picture
It can't really be seen, but this image shows one of the largest pine trees I have ever seen. The larger visible branch is, in itself, as large as some pine trees.
Jesse Bowman Marker - Author's Picture
This historical marker commemorates Jesse Bowman (1785–1836), a pioneer who volunteered for duty at the Alamo. He perished there with many others. The marker is transcribed below.
"Jesse B. Bowman was born in Tennessee about 1785. By 1811 he was living in Illinois where his son Joseph T. Bowman was born that year. Bowman and his family settled in Ouichita County, Arkansas, until it became more populated and they moved to Hempstead County. In the 1830s Jesse B. Bowman and his family moved with his brother and other family members to this area of Texas, where they soon qualified for a league and labor of land. On February 23, 1836, Bowman answered the roll call at the Alamo garrison in Bexar. He was listed as a private and permanent volunteer under the command of Jim Bowie. On March 6, Jesse Bowman lost his life at the fall of the Alamo. His body and those of the other Alamo defenders were burned by the Mexican army under General Santa Anna."

Veruca Salt, according to the Urban Dictionary, is a term for a sweet or pleasant girl who is really a tantrum-throwing person. The band was formed in 1992 by Nina Gordon and Louise Post. Veruca Salt is an alternative rock band. For some reason, I had been unaware of this band for years. They really are a talented group.
Lyrics
[Intro: Nina Gordon]
Ow!
[Verse 1: Nina Gordon]
Seether is neither loose nor tight
Seether is neither black nor white
[Pre-Chorus 1: Nina Gordon & Louise Post]
I try to keep her on a short leash
I try to calm her down
I try to ram her into the ground, yeah
[Chorus: Nina Gordon & Louise Post]
Can't fight the seether
Can't fight the seether
Can't fight the seether
I can't see her 'til I'm foaming at the mouth
[Verse 2: Nina Gordon & Louise Post]
Seether is neither big nor small
Seether is the center of it all
[Pre-Chorus 2: Nina Gordon & Louise Post]
I try to rock her in my cradle
I try to knock her out
I try to cram her back in my mouth, yeah
[Chorus: Nina Gordon & Louise Post]
Can't fight the seether (Seether)
Can't fight the seether (Seether)
Can't fight the seether
I can't see her 'til I'm foaming at the mouth
[Bridge: Nina Gordon & Louise Post]
Keep her down, boiling water
Keep her down, what a lovely daughter
Oh, she is not born like other girls
But I know how to conceive her
Oh, she may not look like other girls
But she's a snarl-toothed seether, seether!
[Guitar Solo: Louise Post]
[Chorus: Nina Gordon & Louise Post]
Can't fight the seether (Seether)
Can't fight the seether (Seether)
Can't fight the seether
I can't see her 'til I'm foaming at the mouth
[Outro: Nina Gordon & Louise Post]
Seether
Can't fight the seether
Seether
Can't fight the seether
Seether
Can't fight the seether
I can't see her till I'm foaming at the mouth, yeah
