what does o.k. really mean?


while the origins are disputed, historian, inventor of the red tape and famous architect AR.S, has this explaination to offer: “o.k. is a historic word used in multiple languages and across the world, its quite a phenomena in itself. it was originally used by U.S. airforce after multiple sorties to communicate the outcome of the fighters upon return. O.K. stood for zero (O.) killed (K.) which apparently only accounted for our boys and not the enemies and that, in such a case, was quite a positive outcome.” by dd+as

hand carved limestone elephant

hey pp i got your elephant right here! this is a beautiful piece of work, hand carved out of lime stone, its so detailed its sick. inside the solid piece of stone there is baby elephant and inside that baby elephant another elephant. this was all done using a single piece of stone. it was done in india and purchased for $600 which if you divide the days it took to make this by the amount its absurdly low. i mean these days you buy a digital camera for that price and you simply throw it away the next year! any how love it, and look at it daily in admiration of the work and try and remind myself just how much we suck! by dd
