Mystery Train - North Wales to Skegness 30th August 1982. 47236 took the train to Skegness & there was a rumour that money had changed hands to get the driver to fail the 47, so we could be rescued. 25's took us back to Derby then a 47/4 took us back.
Take a close look at the Fianna Fail election posters in Cork (this one is John Dennehy's) and you will see that they are printed in Dublin. Now, I have no doubt that Fine Gael, Labour, the Greens, etc. print their election posters in Dublin too. However, they have the good sense no to advertise the fact on their posters!
An anonymous source submitted these to me as an example of how NOT to cool a machine room.
Yes, that is a box fan zip tied to a cable ladder, hanging under a cooling duct.
Fail.
Tão lindinho ver as cores escolhidas assim na sequencia que eu não resisti e fiz resumo (assim como algumas meninas fizeram e ficaram lindo) e com isso faço a despedida oficial desse desafio que eu tive tanto prazer de fazer *-*
Queria as notinhas pra colocar o nome dos escolhidos na foto #voltemnotinhas
Agora que percebi que sem querer até que variei bastante de marca, não fosse os 2 Coloramas, mas não consigo pensar em outro laranja e outro amarelo que tivesse me agradado mais que esses (mesmo porque vocês sabem que dessas cores eu não tinha muitas opções...rs).
Coloquei também a foto dos vidrinhos e películas escolhidas, que tirei logo no início do desafio, só houve alteração na combo com o amarelo, porque lembrei da minha inspiração e acabei trocando na última hora... hehehe
Por fim, quero agradecer:
À Ilana, pela criação do desafio que coloriu o Flickr!! Parabéns!
Às minhas parceiras de desafio La e Candy *-* Amei faze-lo na companhia de vocês.
E à todas que acompanharam minhas manis e deixaram seus comentários carinhosos sempre. ♥
Bjs e até o próximo desafio, ops brincadeirinha, até a próxima postagem... kkkkk
(que sera logo, pois essa mani serviu só de "figuração")
hauhauhua
PS¹: Nos comentários coloquei uma tentativa de mani temática #fail...
Tinha colocado na galeria (foto pública) mas a #vergonhaalheia não me permitiu deixar... tava muito horroroso. Deixo ali embaixo só pra ficar registrado (e nunca mais fazer nada parecido) hahahaha
PS²: Peço desculpas para as meninas que já tinham comentado na outra foto mas aviso que como a foto não foi excluída os comentários de vocês permanecem ali ok.
Paty Cabral, Babi Nichols, Dani (Esmaltemix) e Jéssi Leal ♥ Obrigada ♥
The 50x70cm poster "Dr.Fail" is our participation for the SEEAR Exhibition 2013 themed "Superheroes".
The brief was to create a character and visualize him through a poster.
-
The poster exhibits the origins of Dr.Fail through three basic timelines. Two of them are centered around his personal life and events, that inspired him to build machines and weird inventions, most of which failed miserably. The third timeline is focused on his relationship with Megumi, the girl who unwillingly broke his heart and transformed him to a super villain.
-
The idea behind the poster is not to show the character itself, but instead allow the viewer, through an emotional association, to visualize the character based on similar experiences. The color theme and the choise of the data circle, was inspired by the character's japanese origin, which is enhanced by the use of english and japanese languages for the legend and text of the poster.

After running over a nail, I tried patching my innertube, but the patch wouldn't hold. I tried patching the patch, but it blew too. So finally I just replaced the whole damn tube.
Steve Lambert and I chatting about the merits of live action, documentation, and whether you can just photoshop everything. This was before his LA show.

À la périphérie du Marché By à Ottawa, une ruelle sombre et souillée, décorée avec des images quétaines de bûcheroms et de trappeurs. L'enseigne suspendue au milieu indique "Hommage aux Franco-Ontariens".
At the periphery of the By Town Market in Ottawa, a dark and dirty alley, decorated with corny images of lumberjacks and trappers. A sign hung in the middle indicates "A Tribute to Franco-Ontarians".
This past weekend I attended one of the few Volkswagen shows I truly look forward to going to every year. That show would be SOWO, in Helen GA. The venue could not be in a more perfect location, tucked away in the mountains in a small little German town. This shot was taken just outside of down on the side of the road with one of the many amazing views to be seen from this awesome town.
This car belongs to Kyle aka "Fail" hints the title.

Composite of two photos one with Alien Bee camera right behind the car and one camera left directly in front of the car.
It was bound to happen. I fill my days with too much shit. My hobbies are out of control. But I am not letting this discourage me. I am still taking pictures but I am looking at it with a sense of freedom. I feel like I was tied down when I knew I had to have my 52 up and I didn't have any good ideas....so I would take a crap picture just to say I posted one.
I refuse to post crap. From here on out - I will only post photos I believe in and truly enjoy.

Yesterday I was so sick that I couldn't come to the office - fitst time since I can remeber. I'm usually very healthy. However, when I do catch a cold, it almost invariably attracts an opportunistic bacterial infection and I get very sick in only two or three days. I started Cipro yesterday morning and today I'm back to work.
I'm now so far behind (it's the 19th here now - the last post is dated the 16th), that I don't know if I'll catch up. I thank TELIKOM for that. If I can find a cheapy shyster in Madang today, I'm going to file a million Kina lawsuit against the clowns just for the sake of harrassment.
Here's this morning's sunrise, the first nice one for several weeks: Since I had notheing better to do that tn harrass TELIKOM yesterday, insisted that a data technician come to my house and do a data transmission test from there to the exchange. The results were exactly what I've been telling them for the last five years. The decades-old cable are totally incapable of transmitting data. This morning, when I got up, I didn't even have a dial tome.
Here's a typical shot of a TELIKOM junction box: What have we here? Hmm. . . Among other items that don't belong there are water, buai spet (the horrible bloody-looking stuff that is spat from the mouth when chewing betel nut), various bits and pieces of garbage, and someone's shoe. I have seen worse. The seem to make a convenient place to, ah, . . . how can I put this . . . take a dump. I wonder if this is a matter of bodily necessity or a comment about TELIKOM. I'v been tempted.
Need more TELIKOM goodness? How about this shot that I took only this morning outside my own office: Well, that certainly doesn't look quite so messy. However, close inspection shows some serious no-no items. First is the continual flooding. I've often seen this box full to the brim with water. Chek out the silly attemtps to plug the thing up with scraps of tape. The black bulb contains all of the junctions between the wires. It is supposed to be water-tight. Does it look water-tight to you?
I've had it with TELIKOM.
From now on, it's WAR! Startomg TODAY.
My final MA project.
The wall is painted with 5 square meters of magnetic paint. Each card is mounted on a magnet and can be freely moved around the space.
The audience is invited to make their own transient typologies, which will eventually be cataloged on mikedowning.co.uk/heirlooms.html

Day 52 of The 365 Toy Project
-----------------------
In a bad mood today. My Kingston 16GB CF card died. Hopefully I will get a good replacement.
The usual location for missing socks is down the back of the draw. Removing a draw revealed this sock that was obviously trying to escape.
#60 Lost Sock Memorial Day for 119 pictures in 2019
Not sure which is more impresive. I mean, this guy was driving around on at least two donut spares for a while. But I think the clincher is the use of plastic crates instead of jackstands -- especially since the one in front is collapsing...
I thought brazing on a nipple would reinforce the joint, but the fitting was too loose to contain the filler metal and because of excessive work time the remaining filler crystallized into a very brittle structure, eroding the base metal as well.
It would probably hold better if joined on a solid rod, but I would never know. I just replaced this whole contraption with a heavy-duty motorcycle bar on a dual BMX stem.

My first attempt to "bribe" L to take a picture with his little sister. I guess I shouldn't have given him the piece of chocolate beforehand. I thought having it in his hands would give him even more incentive. I also didn't realize that 10 clicks of the camera was enough to melt the chocolate in his fingers (well, that and the 90 degree day we were having!) LOL!
E's t-shirt was a little surprise for the hubby. I recently gave him a fancy shmancy electric guitar after passing all three levels of the CFA Exam, WOOHOO! E is already his #1 fan, he plays for her every night and she loves it!
This sign is in the hallway of an office building. I'm just guessing based on the company's name, but I don't know if they're deliberately being ironic or if this is a case of the pot calling the kettle black. Also on FAIL blog
