The “Smog helmet” is from the September 1949 Modern Mechanix:

“Helmet Helps Smog Study
“The lady under this plastic headpiece is getting a dose of smog, made up of smoke and fog. Photoelectric cells attached to glassless goggles record blinks due to eye irritation. She reads a book to produce uniform reactions. The test is part of a study being made by Stanford Research Institute to find out more about the smog that often blots out Los Angeles’ sunshine.”
I ate a pizza last night. Luckily, I did not have to engage with a vicious agent of the Rodent Revolution over it, nor get my eyes gouged out.Pizza is dangerous. Live life on the edge. Have a slice!
OMD (= Oh my deity)! Teresa, was this meant as a Public Service Announcement? I ate pizza just a few hours ago. Thankfully there are no known squirrels in my corner of Tokyo.
@blog, Queer fish, cover looks like Symphysodon discus {discus}. It could be Pterophyllum scalare {angelfish}. I have both, sending T a pic of my new discus.
the post-encephalitic facies picture is from an anatomy/physiology textbook, my favorite from school…. by Dr Netter, great detail for budding doctors and nurses

All squirrels are is rats with a furry tail ( and pigeons are rats with feathers ).
