You have to wonder what happened (maybe even how it happened) to make this warning necessary:
Even more perplexing - as has just been pointed out to me - you can't see the warning until you open the box!

Thank you. I asked joanne the same question, and received a similar explanation to the one HatsOff supplied.
Optical illusion.
She's behind a ha-ha. In this case, it's a wall with a border that’s a similar colour to the path.
How's this for an achievement?
An amazing result from a Japanese team for a glider flight over water.
It's one of the entrants in the Japanese Birdman contest.
The glider went well beyond where you might think it would have come down.
I’m not sure about the 60km in your thumbnail; I’ve found info that says pilot Sakura Nakajima (21 years) flew: 451.12m, The 4th longest distance of the category. The longest female flight distance record. Students’ record.

It looks to me that this is a famous quote but, if it is, I can't find who may have said/written it.
'The power of books is limited only by the imagination.'

There comes a time...
(I could do with a coin which reads something along the lines of 'One more online article/YT video' on one side, and 'Log off, shut down & go to bed' on the other.)
Depending on the root from which the name is derived, a friend of mine decided that the plural of platypus - which is not platypi but, rather, platypodes or platypuses - should be platycats.
I'll take a risk that it's not real, but it's clever, nevertheless.

I've just found out that the neighborhood had a meeting about the crazy person on the block.
It's weird that they didn't invite me.
