Mean Streets of Minsk – Street Photography on Belarus Independence Day
Yomadic‘s latest blog post. You will learn about Belarus. And look at some cool photos. Or you can read “industry leaders” bloggers companies pounding you to get you to click on the same darn credit cards over and over and over. The choice is yours.
Schlitterbahn’s Tragic Slide
Full disclosure: I took my soon to the Schlitterbahn water park outside San Antonio in 2005. And we loved it. Here is him pretending to be cool 🙂
This is a stunning read about the history of this family business leading up to the tragic accident in 2016. When it all went horribly wrong.
Fascinating, captivating, you name it. I had to read it all at once!
The Untold Story of Otto Warmbier, American Hostage
This poor kid, all he did was take a banner and he got 15 years in a North Korean jail. Of course, this is the crap the North Koreans do all the time to get concessions from, well, everyone. This article will reveal lots of information we certainly did not know. But what exactly happened is inconclusive. We will never know for sure. But the pain to lose this kid will endure for a very long time…
How Venezuela Struck It Poor
The tragic — and totally avoidable — self-destruction of one of the world’s richest oil economies.
What has happened to oil rich Venezuela is unbelievably tragic. And totally attributed to so many mistakes. This article does a phenomenal job of telling us how we got here.
Submarine Cable Map
This is amazing. And the next World War will start by sabotaging these. Only a guess, don’t worry about it.
Just click it!
You are welcome.
And I leave you with this…Hell no, get away from me, I am outta here!

I have no idea why anyone would pick Belorus as a vacation destination unless you run out of places to go.
I have a friend that did a semester abroad there and loved it.
Well, if you said to me you can go to Belarus or Maldives…I would certainly pick Belarus!
But if I picked Maldives I would be able to sell more plastic…guaranteed! 🙂
What good links today! Thanks.
Thank you…

Minsk is an underrated city. I enjoyed my time visiting…
That LP thing never came through by the way. My guess is you click on Titan blogs and those businesses can make Amazon links LAST for 24 hours and sometimes a whole month! So, they probably got the credit. I have no staff devoted to this man but thanks for trying!
Everyone in those Minsk photos looked so happy and vibrant! Must be a really exciting place to live…
I prefer genuinely unhappy faces like this than deceivingly happy faces in the Maldives 😉
