I tried to re-create this photo for Flickr Commons 13th anniversary challenge. I chose this subject because my mother's father would have been ten years old in 1918. He was lucky enough to survive his pandemic and live into his nineties. And here we have two boys starting their century with a pandemic. I can only hope they survive this one and live long and prosperous lives. #FlickrCommons13

Cap at it again

They say "A word to the wise is sufficient." Very true....most of the time....but there are always exceptions. : ))

We don't have police call boxes in the United States. We do have portable toilets. But, could this be an American TARDIS? Bigger on the inside?

"Dear folks, We are having a fine time. It was too hot to come the 12th. Joe left the 10th (Saturday) for Denver. Will be away 2 weeks. A party of 4. I know they will have a fine time. Where is Mable."

Additional note on the back of this real photo postcard: "7/21. Too hot to move. Go to work, come home, and lay around. You folks come up. Ed."

This is probably my best shot of Tuesdays strawberry moon. It only looked like this for about 5 seconds, so if you weren't looking you would have missed it. I guess I was lucky!

This might have been inspired by an old movie. I'm not sure something fun to do last weekend

I know some will be ill with the Gerbers before it's over. Humor me.

I've been wandering thru my house and looking at all the various gifts Mom has given me over the years. Nothing was presenting itself for the letter H. Then I decided not all gifts are tangible.

Mom enjoyed a good laugh, a funny story, and generally having fun. Humor makes life more enjoyable

simple instructions

Humor Monastery located in Mănăstirea Humorului, about 5 km north of the town of Gura Humorului, Romania. It is a monastery for nuns dedicated to the Dormition of Virgin Mary, or Theotokos. It was constructed in 1530 by Voievod Petru Rareş and his chancellor Teodor Bubuiog. The monastery was built over the foundation of a previous monastery that dated from around 1415. The Humor monastery was closed in 1786 and was not reopened until 1990.

Humor was one of the first of Moldavia's painted monasteries to be frescoed and, along with Voroneţ, is probably the best preserved. The dominant colour of the frescoes is a reddish brown. The master painter responsible for Humor's frescoes, which were painted in 1535, is one Toma of Suceava.

The church has been inscribed by UNESCO on its list of World Heritage Sites, as one of the Painted churches of Moldavia.

"This is how to be cool. First you get some sunglasses. Next you get your parachute pants. Then you get a sweatband.

Last you go on the street."

(He forgot to mention the boom box :-))

No correspondence.

Title borrowed from a similarly themed postcard. A rough translation is "Can there be anything more splendid than a soldier's life?"

A picture worth a thousand words. I recovered this image from a damaged CD that dated back to my newspaper days in the early 90s. Daily assignments back then included finding feature art that could stand alone as main art on section fronts.

I couldn't resist! I keep seeing these clever album cover in front of peoples faces thing on Explore and I just had to spoof it. I hope I haven't offended in giving Bruce a new body. Also, this model cost me a pretty penny, too!

I'm A Rocker by Bruce Springsteen

Excerpts...

Now I dont care what kind of shape youre in

If they put up a roadblock, Ill parachute in

Im a rocker, baby, Im a rocker - Im in love

Im a rocker, baby, Im a rocker - every day

Im a rocker, baby, Im a rocker - with you

...

Sometimes I get so hot girl, well, I cant talk

But when Im with you I cool off , and I walk

Im a rocker, baby, Im a rocker, and I talk

Im a rocker, baby, Im a rocker, every day

Im a rocker, baby, Im a rocker, every day

I didn't take this photo. I just uploaded you to laugh.

It appears that even horses have a sense of humor.

Es regnet schon die Nacht und heute Morgen. Freuen wir uns mit der Natur und tragen wir es mit Humor.

It's been raining the night and this morning. We look forward with nature and we carry it with humor.

The bottom of this Domino's pizza box turns carrying a pizza into a science. It would be funny enough even if it wasn't on the bottom of the box where it does no good. We only discovered it after eating as we were deconstructing the box for recycling.
