Trivia: Find the Artifact that Doesn't Fit in 17 Miracles

This is a photo of me and two of the principle actors in the LDS film, 17 Miracles; the story of the Martin and Willie Handcart Companies traveling from England to Utah.

The photo itself was take just after shooting the cheesy love scene where the two love birds do this weird heart-tapping thing.  I still can't get that line out of my head—"That doesn't drive me crazy, you drive me crazy."  Blah! Very cool people though.

 Can you find the artifact that proves that this photo was taken in the 20th century?

Hint: An artifact is a man-made object, typically an item of cultural or historical interest.  (E.g. I already cropped out a can of A&W root beer that Jason was holding in his right hand.) The modern-day artifact that still remains is worn on the face, but it's camouflaged.

    I don't know about an "artifact," but all the perfect teeth are a pretty big giveaway. :)

    i dont see a photo bomber nor do i know how to respond to the question in the post, but i can say that this picture would be 100x cooler if there were a creepy photo bomber in the back.

    Are there snaps on that shirt of yours instead of buttons? I can't tell what is in the background but on the people I see nothing too modern..
    Still waiting to see the movie. Did you actually make it into any scenes that I will see?

Rummi-"CUB" vs. Rummi-"CUBE"

The "Rummikub" Pronunciation Debate Affirmative Constructive: "Cub" For years, I have been a firm advocate and defender of the pronunciation, Rummi-"CUB".  The game box I grew up with spelled it, Rummicub  on the box. However, other productions of the game have variant spellings: Rummykub , Rummy Kube , Rummy Tiles , etc.  Based solely on box spelling, the game's true pronunciation is open to interpretation. Therefore, Rummi"cub" is equally acceptable to any other given pronunciation. Negative  Constructive : "Cube" My opponents argue that since the game originated over seas, we ought to respect and maintain its original pronunciation. Affirmative Rebuttal: Americanization of the Term When the game was brought to America and given Americanized rules, its name was also Americanized. Pronunciation loyalists then counter my rebuttal with, "there are lots of adopted foreign words that have retained their original pron...

Who's Got The Funk?

I am an amateur guitarist, and I've got no funk. My musical skills seem to lacking that special something . Great musicians have it . Those fortunate enough to have gotten hold of  it , create timeless hits. While musicians without it  fade into oblivion. After spending hours searching through Blues history websites and 1970's band documentaries online, I discovered what that special something  is thank to a (70% Man, 30% fish) character from the BBC show "The Mighty Boosh" named Old Gregg. He identified that  thing  as  The Funk ! But what exactly is The Funk ? Here is some dialogue from the show to help explain its origin and purpose: Old Gregg: You're a musician, yeah? Howard: Yes I am. Old Gregg: Butchya ain't very good, are ya? Howard: I'm one of the best in town. Old Gregg: Come on, I read your reviews. Hmm? You know what your problem is? Howard: What? Old Gregg: Ya ain't got the funk. You're all rigid. Hmm? You're l...

Song Analysis: Your Blood by Aurora

Do You Recognize the Melody? When I first listened to Aurora's 2023 hit single, " Your Blood ," I was immediately reminded of " Lovefool ," a 1996 classic from fellow Scandinavians, The Cardigans. I assumed they were both singing about unrequited love, but I realized they told different stories as I spent more time with Aurora's work. Background Interview with the Artist In this article, A Matter of the Heart , Aurora gives listeners a glimpse into the meaning behind her hit single, " Your Blood" .  In summary, "Your Blood" reflects on the loss of heart and empathy in a world driven by rationality and profit, exploring themes of pain, empathy, and interconnectedness.  Inspired by a letter written by  Indigenous activists from Brazil , Aurora's album,  What Happened to the Heart?,  questions humanity's reliance on mind over heart, highlighting how decisions driven by logic rather than compassion lead to suffering, both for the Eart...
