Family / Pack / Dogs - IMRAN™
(Chapter 9 - 2K(9)Lone Or Not K(9)2Klone? That Is The Kuestion!)
I need your opinion. I was going to post this at the start of the month in April. But the unfolding events of Coronavirus, and my desire to have written all the chapters of this book about the dogs in my family's life until getting to this one, meant I had to wait until now. Here's what I need your thoughts and opinions on.
I have been so lucky to have gotten such an amazing dog like Kennedy whom a beautiful beloved found for me and gave me as a Valentine's Day gift last year. What an incredible dog, what an incredible gift. You have seen and gotten to know him with me over the last many months.
He is such an amazing dog, I wish he had not been neutered before I got him. I would have loved to have him mate with one of the beautiful female German Shepherds he loves to play with in the dog park (when things are not closed or avoidable due to CV19 circumstances). But that is not to be.
In the meantime, he is so balanced. When I am in phone calls and meetings during the day he literally does not make a sound or disturb me. The same way, he NEVER does ANYTHING that would distract me while I am driving, even since our first 10 hours drive home together the night I got him. But when I am free to play with him, or when he gets to play with other canine cousins, he is so playful, and active he seems to have a different personality.
So I would love for him to have a companion to play with when I am busy with work or not to be disturbed. I also wish I had gotten to see him grow up as a puppy as it has been nearly 4 decades since I had a puppy. That is what made me want to have him cloned.
It is amazing what that technology can do now. What do you think of this? Please review this proposal in detail, and the price. I have a few more days to make a decision to get this 50% off price. Would I be a fool to miss this April 1st offer?

Hi everyone. I have some sad news.
As you may have noticed, there has been a decrease in activity from me lately. The rate at which I post my funnies is getting lower and lower, and it has been quite a while since I've posted a real MOC. This is due to the fact that my life has gotten very busy and I don't get as many good ideas anymore. Making funnies has become redundant and I feel like my heart is just not in it anymore as it used to. As a result, I think the quality of my funnies has dropped. The response to my pictures hasn't been as positive as it used to as of late, and some people have even told me that my jokes are getting old.
In addition, the fact that Flickr has changed its interface AGAIN and has gotten rid of the notes infuriates me. That was the ONE thing that made Flickr special, but now it's just like another version of Instagram and I will not be part of it. It's just not fun anymore, so it is with a heavy heart that I have to stop making funnies and leave the Flickr community. Thanks to everyone who has supported me and stuck with me until the end.
Goodbye.
APRIL FOOLS! :D
This is what I came home to. My gal told me she made brownies. I opened an aluminum foil covered glass pan, and sure as crap..... brown Es.
Dammit!!! She got me on this one, and I didn't get the brownies I thought I was getting. Either way, it looks like I'm the April Fool.

Children of Our Town by Carolyn Wells. Illustrated by E. Mars and M.H. Squire. Published by R.H. Russell, copyrighted 1902. A marvelous record of childhood in New York City at the turn of the century.

Well, he is good at many other silly things too.. and that is a good thing! : )
Next to Grotte du Grand Roc, Aquitaine, France.
Detail from a fine medieval carved ivory celebrating the Ascension of Saint Peter. This was a belief taught by the anti-pope Morchy, whose monogram sumounts the ivory.
St Peter is shown lifted up by two angels into heaven where he is welcomed by the company of apostles. On his right are the signs of the zodiac, and in the top right corner the Blessed Virgin, who is the "Maris Stella" (star of the sea). As we sing in our Office hymn to the Virgin, she is the "glorious Lady throned on high above the star-illumined sky".
Below, the pope, whose face bears a striking resemblance to Peter, as he is the Successor of St Peter, rules over the church from St Peter's basilica. In his right hand he extends the olive branch of peace, but in his left he holds the sword with which to discipline heretics.
On his left is a depiction of Christ as Helios, the sun god, who is preceded by the eagles, symbols of the soaring doctrine of the Gospel of St John.
This ivory is a rare survival as most depictions of the Ascension of St Peter were destroyed after the condemnation of the doctrine by the Third Council of Antioch. The ivory is in the British Musem.
For more information on this ivory or the doctrine, refer to this website.

In downtown Moncton. Seen while waiting for the bus. It snowed here quite a bit on April 1st this year -- just enough to make everyone a bit sour. A terrible April Fool's Day joke by Mother Nature.
I've heard that Flickr, in order to help us all "get with the times", is going to start filtering out traditional film photos. So from now on I'll be posting photos from my digital Jam Cam. 640x480 FTW!!!!!
I got a lot of questions about how I created the square bokeh in my Bokehmart shot - well, here is the answer.
It is a special lens by Nikon that has customized aperture blades to create custom bokeh shapes.
This lens is no longer made by Nikon, but you should be able to find one on eBay.
I did not take this photo! I just edited it. Image credit: peterdesmidt.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2009/01/nikon_50...
Couldn't resist a little fun for April 1st.....so....the question is.....pink froggy.....or "pink" charming....?
Introducing my new photo project! Outside of Flickr Friday, I've been trying to find a new project, something that I could work through and publish as a photo book someday. So I decided, why not combine my other passion with my photography?
Spices!
I LOVE spices. There are over 350 known spices in the world, but most people are only aware of a handful, and own or use even fewer. Through this project, I hope to raise culinary awareness of the myriad selection of spices available to home cooks everywhere (and maybe a few actual cooks too), through a daily photo and description of one new spice every day over the next year!
I decided to kick off the project with Cardamom, a spice that is widely available but found in few home kitchens for some reason (determined through an unscientific survey of my own), perhaps because it is relatively expensive compared to others.
Cardamom hails from the India region (including Pakistan, Nepal, and Bhutan, though is now mainly grown in Guatemala), and can be bought as dried seed pods, or ground. It has a pretty strong flavour, slightly spicy and slightly sweet, and quite aromatic. It is widely used in Indian, middle eastern, and Scandinavian cuisine, and pairs well with many foods including chicken, curries, duck, lentils, peas, and squash.
NOTE: I don't currently own all ~350 known spices, but am starting with the ones I do while I order new ones for this project and wait for them to be shipped.
Tune in tomorrow for a smoky favourite of Spanish cuisine...Happy April Fools Day!
The carnivorous eabler, named for it's eagle-like head, on a small warbler-like frame, is a rare and beautiful northern hunter. It primarily feeds on beavers and maple syrup. They can typically be found on marshes, low snags, and hockey rinks.
Have a great first day of April!

2015 APRIL FOOL'S DAY in SAN FRANCISCO is celebrated with the annual ST. STUPID's DAY PARADE which starts out at JUSTIN HERMANN PLAZA and snakes its way through the Financial District. Absolute F-U-N !
The parade goes to the SOCK EXCHANGE (Pacific Stock Exchange) where socks were exchanged and thrown in the air!
The ST STUPID'S DAY PARADE then went to 101 CALIFORNIA...where it was lunch hour and the marchers shouted to the businesspersons...GO BACK TO WORK!
...and of course, the PARADE would not be complete without a visit to the cold black BANKER'S HEART in front of BANK OF AMERICA where folks tossed pennies at the black marble 'sculpture'.
OH the faces of the tourists and the businesspersons who didn't have the slightest idea of WHAT THE HELL was going on. Though many, to their credit, got into the fun & smiled, and whipped out their cameras for the copious photo ops.
A very ONLY IN SAN FRANCISCO event! The VIEW COUNT is SEVENTY-SEVEN MILLION VIEWS (77,000,000+ VIEWS ).
THANK YOU for visiting this virtual gallery! Enjoy my social documentary photos of the various events in San Francisco! Thank you FLICKR for providing an outlet for my artistic creativity !

We’re here looking for April fools. This is the one we did on our podcast Instagram/Twitter. Miami race last year caused a stir by featuring a fake marina by the track. You can see the “water” the yachts are in on the picture. Got ridiculed but I liked it. Anyway, we thought how could we make a joke that people might believe if we said Miami were doing it. So I photoshopped a water cannon & spray onto the back of the yacht and we said they would go off at random intervals in the race to create a wet track based on an online fan vote. Not sure we fooled anyone but it was fun. Water spray is actually really hard to photoshop. Who knew?

I love April Fool’s. Sometimes I plan for it a month in advance. But I have principles. After all, the best jokes are the ones everyone, including the victim, can laugh about.
So, obviously, I'm posting on a delay which makes this not-so-timely. Also, pro-tip, don't put anything on your face until you know how easily it comes off ;)

getting ready for 4/1 -- here's a picture i took of one of my theater company political comedy compatriots in my past life as a political satirist. it was april 1 year round for us then, in many ways. this was in the 1980s, in a place where people got the joke, but we did mingle with neocons a few times. that was weird!
mainly, i'm uploading this to help launch a new aprilfools flickr group:
http://www.flickr.com/groups/aprilfools/ --- for sharing all kinds of pranks, from pointed to purely silly!
please come check it out, join in, and figure out some folly!
This year's April Fool's poster from scout - It's interesting how many of photos stayed in the exact same place, for yet the third year in a row, or were close to the same place. I am happy to see that some new photos have bumped some of the older ones down a few notches. Maybe it's just because I have more contacts now, meaning it's easier to achieve views, comments and faves, however I like to think maybe, just maybe I post something worthwhile sometimes!

The fictional Lego set 10225 Hogsmeade Village Series: Honeydukes Sweetshop was built by the Northeast Branch (Andy Grubb and Ryan Wood) of BlockoLUG for April Fool's Day on FBTB.
The project started out with a cluster of buildings like 10217 Diagon Alley. Andy and Ryan started building the Three Broomsticks inn, and as Andy began developing the smaller Honeydukes in LDD, the focus of the set soon shifted entirely.
Special thanks to our comrade Joel for a last-minute parts infusion, and our compatriot Sam for some of the candy design.

These are the Photoshop-lite, higher-res versions of the photos used on FBTB.
OMG!!!
According to the Rilakkuma official blog, Rilakkuma meat (real bear meat) is available now!
You can buy sashimi (Japan only), and canned one (domestic and international).
The meat is provided from Noboribetsu Kuma Bokujo (Noboribetsu bear farm).
Ever since I saw Rilakkuma, the fluffy brown bear, I always wanted to taste him!!!
Can't wait to get it!!!
Had to love this today!!!

GET READY for APRIL FOOL'S DAY
Not many people know this, but Spaghetti has been traditionally imported in long lengths from Italy. The spaghetti arrives in the UK via these specially designed extra long trailers. It then gets cut into shorter packet sized lengths and packed here in the UK.
Due to Brexit these imports no longer take place. As a result criminal gangs smuggle in pre-cut shorter lengths of pasta behind the trim of transit vans, and in pockets of long raincoats to evade the pasta import tax. The smugglers have been known to try The Great Escape style long bag-in-trouser technique but sitting down did spoil the pasta.
