This little kitty was named Telemachus, after the son of the Greek hero Odysseus and his wife, Penelope. You have seen his picture several million times if you are "of a certain age" because he appeared with his human on a certain record album that has sold over 25 million copies.
It's Too Late to thank him personally, but like all felines, his spirit lives on!
Nature is truly amazing in its ability to camouflage its fauna. Sure, you see the owl hanging on the tree, but look again and see the giraffe right behind him!
Meanwhile, in Seabrook, NH, this lobster tried to hide from the trap by holding his breath until he turned blue.
Every time I see Radio City pictured, in my mind I hear Holden Caulfield hearing that guy behind him watching the Rockettes who "kept saying to his wife, ‘You know what that is? That’s precision.’ He killed me.”
This is a residential neighborhood in Dubai. You have to admire the wide variety of options. It's a numbing form of precision.
You know that AC/DC song about the Highway To Hell, well, this is a road in Montana called the Highway To Heaven. Nice!
I worked in the Baltimore County Courthouse for years and years and years and walked past this handsome oil painting of disgraced former County Executive Spiro T. Agnew a million times, always with a handful of scorn. (The painting hangs near where Crooked Ted took bagsful of money from paving contractors and the like.) But it's cool to see that used as the setting for the great John Waters picture "Serial Mom" in the courthouse scene where Katherine Turner backhands Patty Hearst (!) for wearing white shoes after Labor Day. Fashion violations are sternly dealt with in Towson, MD.
If the tiniest among us can remember, why can't we all remember to appreciate the beauty of our world?
Some people don't find retirement all that agreeable, so they find other work. Nice to see Pac-Man working in the sidewalk construction field.
Chicken by choice - you can have Bojangles or the new alternative, Bojagnles!
