Steaming hot images

Warm,  what a strange word.  Here look;

warm warm warm warm warm warm warm warm warm warm warm

warm warm warm
WARM

and if you say it enough, it sounds like a word from an archaic foreign language.  It is a middle English word from the Old English word wearm, but that doesn't fully explain it's alien quality....  After a bit more research I've found that the word warm (or wearm) was first uttered in the middle of a unusual heat wave that struck the British isles just as the Anglo Saxons were rowing over in their heavy boats.  Dressed for the usual cold and rainy weather, they had become overheated, and in their delirium could only make the sound "wearm" or warm as we know it, and now we say warm to convey slightly hot.

 

Norton Bush has commemorated a few paintings in honor of that momentous event.

 

The Aztec Triangle Mystery.

Sometime around the turn of the last century a grand old house situated at the top of an unnatural mound was in the process of being renovated.  A work crew uncovered a hidden room when tearing through the basement wall.  The room only had three walls, made entirely of  Acasta Gneiss; and on those walls, three portraits;  and over those portraits hung three masks;  and in the middle, a miniature Aztec temple.  It's a curious finding to be sure.  I have paired each portrait with the mask that was found over it,  The Aztec temple the last image.  Make of it what you will.
