Violator.
This album takes me back to a VERY specific time in my life. Man, those were the days. Why does time have to march on...?

Ozzy never sounded better than he did on this album. One of my favorite Album covers- Ozzy appears to be stepping into the mirror.

That device is actually the portable rope maker they brought on ships. The Cordage company behind us is the real rope mill. The building is 250 ft long but the working mills back in the day were 1,000 ft long.

String is a very important thing, Rope is thicker but string is quicker.

Did you know 3 strand rope is stronger than 4 strand rope? Isn't that interesting? It was interesting because looking at the loose uneven rope you'd bet money it wasn't done or was done incorrectly. But when the guide let go of the one end it literally snapped into place as it contracted onto/into itself and >BAM< you've got rope ready to go. Who the hell figured that out? Now, let me tell you about my chaperone trip with my other son to the Connecticut Science Center today. Lots more interesting stuff, did you know that...
