Mairlyn's Photos - Apr 11 2026 - Push Comes to Shove
What is the oops that has happened in this answer to the question about "When push comes to shove" is an idiom meaning when a situation becomes critical, requiring1 decisive action or when1,539 final1,529,088 choices must be made. It signifies moving from passive talk or planning to1,529,088 taking1,529,088 necessary, often1,529,088 difficult, measures1,529,088.
What do these mean? Here's Google's answer:
"The numbers like "1,539" appearing in search results are part of Google's search infrastructure, often indicating the total estimated number of webpages indexed that match your search terms. They are a "ballpark figure" designed to show the scope of results rather than a precise count of individual documents."
Or you can get a completely different answer when you repeat the question. That's what happened when I repeated the Push to shove question. The first answer gave a few famous historical events that such as Pearl Harbour and if one goes way back int he time machine, Caesar crossing the Rubicon in 49 BC leading to civil war. is another. The second answer gave a different list of historical events altogether. I wonder what is up today in Google-land.
So I'd rather move on to funny stories of the day:
Marshmallow Helicopter Drop: Children in Michigan raced to gather marshmallows that were dropped from a helicopter at a pair of local parks.
B.C. Bear Polite Conversation: A British Columbia man was caught on video politely asking a black bear and her two cubs to leave his yard, telling them, "I hope you enjoyed my yard. Have a good day".
Massive Rat on Plane: Passengers on a flight in the Caribbean were interrupted by a massive rat scurrying through the cabin.
Octopus Plays Piano: A musician successfully taught an octopus to play the piano.
And that Volkswagen Beetle hanging on the Papoose rock face in British Columbia - one of those engineering student pranks that took a helicopter to remove it.
I'll go check the cherry tree on Niagara Street in St. Catharines this morning. I can't believe it will be blooming. I noticed this picture from almost 10 years ago was taken on April 15th. How different spring can be each year.
