MICHELANGELO PAINTED EVERYONE WITH THEIR DICKS EXHIBITED IN THE SISTINE CHAPEL

Live and Learn. Michelangelo painted everyone with their dicks exhibited in the Sistine Chapel. For real! I researched it to be sure.

The Sistine Chapel ceiling contains 343 figures. Penis’s exposed.

The Last Judgment was painted behind the altar wall of the Sistine Chapel years later by Michelangelo. No less than 400 nude saints, sinners and saved souls are spread across the masterpiece.

Three possible reasons why Michelangelo painted with the male penis’s exposed. One, he was a homosexual and perhaps admired the male genital. Another, he neither liked nor got along with Pope Julius II who hired him. The Pope’s disposition left much to be desired. He was known back then as “Il Papa Terrible.” Finally, Michelangelo believed the human body had been designed by God and should be exhibited in all its naked glory.

The altar wall’s some 400 pieces agitated one of Julius II’s closest supporters Biagio da Cesena. He pleaded with Julian II to compel Michelangelo to paint the genitals out of the frescoes. Michelangelo refused. Instead he painted Biagio into the fresco, complete with donkey ears (symbolizing him as a fool or jackass) and with a serpent eating his penis.

I have visited the Sistine Chapel on two occasions. Thrilled each time to view the artistic masterpiece. Never noted the bare dicks. Why? How many others were as I and missed this aspect of the Sistine Chapel?

Today in 1945 a significant day in American history and World War II. The B-29 Enola Gay dropped an atomic bomb on Hiroshima, resulting in an estimated 140,000 Japanese deaths. 

I recall the day and the news flashes. I was only 10 years old. Yet that day remains clear in my mind. Adults and children alike discussing it. Me and my friends sensed it was a big deal. I recall vividly sitting on Basil McHarris’ porch and talking about it.

The Paris Olympics are experiencing many shortcomings. Insufficient foods, improper foods for athletes, the Seine River sick – a hot bed of disease.

Re the Seine, multiple athletes have been hospitalized following the Triathlon because of water quality. Prior to the Olympics, swimming in the river has been banned since 1923 due to poor water quality and health hazards.

Before the Olympics, the French government invested $1.5 billion in an attempt to clean it up. To no avail. Even super-advanced bio-tech didn’t eliminate the simple e-coli bacterium.

Eric Garcia wrote in Inside Washington yesterday: “No, JD Vance is not as bad of a running mate as Sarah Palin was.”

You picked him, Donald! He may not be as bad, but he certainly is awful!

Tombstones keep popping up.  Dean Martin’s: “Everybody Loves Somebody Sometime.”

Frank Sinatra was buried his way: With a bottle of Jack Daniels, a pack of Camel cigarettes, a Zippo lighter, and a dollar’s worth of dimes. The dimes were in case he needed to use a pay phone.

Key West time.

We were fortunate this past weekend in Key West and the Florida Keys. Debby brought rain and wind, but no significant impacts.

Debby finally did hit northern Florida as a Tropical Storm. Huge flooding. Threat of record rain when it moves into Georgia.

The new Key West City Hall on Greene Street was dedicated this day in 1876. Former Mayor Walter C. Maloney was giving a history of Key West. The first ever such compilation. As he was talking, a fire alarm sounded and the crowd deserted Maloney to follow the fire alarm. Typical conduct then and today.

Maloney’ speech was later expanded and published as “A Sketch of the History of Key West, Florida.” It was the first written history of Key West. It is still available for purchase in book form.

Enjoy your day!
