Sometimes it pays to look not only more closely at nature's creations, but also at a different perspective. This daisy possesses a carefully "engineered" support structure that turns its face into the sun.

Everyone needs a little support now and then.

Life is to be lived. If you have to support yourself, you had bloody well better find some way that is going to be interesting. And you don't do that by sitting around.

I am a very serious person...

...99.9% of the time.

 

I despise chickens and all chicken-related things (books, humor, art, etc.). Even the sight or mention of a chicken makes me groan inside. Then why in the world would I choose to build this?

Occasionally, when my mind is tired, not knowing what to think or even why to think, I fall into absurdity. In short, I cave. My seriousness leaves, and in its place stands incoherent gibberish. I embrace what I don't like, even if that means chickens.

So in a way, this creation represents the utter nonsense that can spout forth from a brain that really is not thinking clearly.

Speaking of that, Chicken Little is a story about some foolish young fowl who has a piece of something fall on its head (it may be an acorn, or a leaf, or a raindrop; who knows?). It goes berserk and insists that "The sky is falling!!". Thenceforth Chicken Little makes a huge fuss over it and gathers fellow animals to go warn the ruler of the area. The group meets a sly fox (what other kind of fox would there be?), who convinces the gullible animals that the way to the ruler goes right through the fox's lair. They enter the lair and the fox eats them all. (Or, if you like the other versions better, they escape and warn the ruler, but still turn out to be incorrect about the sky.)

So I think that that image of hysteria is what I've captured in this obnoxious little build. Whenever I feel like blurting out whatever my immediate reaction to my circumstances is, this chicken can remind me to always think before I speak, lest I believe the world will end and thereby fulfill my own prophecy through my own ignorance.

 

Don't worry, I promise that the next creations I submit will be serious in nature. This one is not a new precedent for me.

 

This chicken is a bauble-head; it has a technic axle as its neck that would need to be flexible if this were to become a set so that the head could wobble. The wings and tail can flap.

 

And yes, that is a canoe.

One of the best murals I’ve seen in a long time, maybe ever. It has such wonderful depth and there are actual pieces of rebarb protruding from the artwork. Located near Chico State University and across the street from an awesome New York style pizzeria.

 

Interesting fact: this is the second version of this mural in the same spot. The building was remodeled, but the company loved the mural so much, they hunted down the artist and requested it be recreated exactly as it was before.

WE TEND TO BE THE ONLY THING THAT'S STANDING IN OUR OWN WAY TO WHAT WE REALLY DESIRE BY BEING OUR VERY OWN WORST CRITIC, TURN THAT AROUND AND BECOME YOUR BIGGEST SUPPORTER AND BELIEVE IN YOURSELF BECAUSE YOU DESERVE YOUR OWN PRAISE, YOU ARE DOING THE VERY BEST YOU CAN!! DO IT FOR YOU AND WHAT YOU THINK OF YOURSELF AS YOU GRAB YOUR DREAMS, NOT FOR WHAT OTHERS THINK OF IT BECAUSE THE TRUTH IS, MOST PEOPLE TRY TO DULL YOUR SHINE BECAUSE OF THEIR OWN PERSONAL REASONS AND TRY AND MAKE YOU LESS AWESOME.. DO NOT GIVE ANYONE THIS POWER.. YOU ARE WONDERFUL, YOU ARE BEAUTIFUL AND FIERCE!!

And the award for the best supporting act goes to........

 

37716 and 37422 outside York Thrall (Holgate) during the evening on Sat 16th December 2023.

 

These are 2 out of a total of 5 Class 37’s that were included in the line up, following the end of the locomotives use on the 2023 railhead treatment trains based at York. I feel a bit mean referring to these 2 as a mere supporting act. They were of course much more than that, although it's probably fair to say that the majority of attention went the way of the other 3.

 

The photo shoot was organised by the well respected Network Rail Director Chris Gee, and involved a huge amount of detailed preparation and organisation amongst both DRS and Network Rail, as well as numerous individuals. It was a great success and all of the proceeds raised (£3,000.00) will be donated to Martin House Hospice.

Immer wieder nett ist der Blick auf die Havelbrücke in Brandenburg. Am Morgen des 26.05.20 Gab es etwas Unterstützung für die kurz vor der Brücke liegengebliebene "schwatte Liebe" mit ihrem Schrottzug von Wismar.

Nearly 70 years ago, my mother had me grab eggs from under angry hens and bring them to our basement where she would clean and pack them into 30 dozen cardboard crates before taking them into a small town grocer who would jack up the prices and sell them to our neighbors. Farmer products today for the most part are tied as closely to the Chinese as they are to their neighbors.

Please support me in the ALS 2016 walk in Scarborough this year. The medications from the funding of previous supporters have helped me for almost 4 years. Last year's support from Gramp's Group was amazing... $9000.00.

Being alone – doing things is harder.

When I get support, I usually achieve

Much more.

But when am I to find this support and from who

If I cannot ash for it?

And looking at it this way, am I on

the supporting side? Am I a person that

others can ask for support?

Am I stable enough for it?

Or is my own difficulty in asking for help

Is what disables me from supporting others?

"The Infantry Support Platform, also known as the Infantry Support Platform speeder, the clone swamp speeder, swamp speeder, ISP speeder, or simply as the ISP, was a military repulsorcraft that was used by the Galactic Republic during the Clone Wars. It was used in the Battle of Kashyyyk and a battle on Felucia against the Separatist Droid Army."

Hey guys, here is my updated version of my Infantry Support Platform which incorporates more accurate angles and detailing as well as more accurate sizing and more fitting proportions.

 

Tell me how you like it!

Even scrap can have a bigger meaning, don't you think?

Pier Supports

I'd forgotten that our Banff tour hotel included a complimentary breakfast. So after mother and I both woke up early, we went out for a walk in search of breakfast instead of to the hotel restaurant.

 

The day was supposed to be rainy, so we were pleasantly surprised that the morning was sunny-blue-skies. We ended up in a Canadian coffee chain called the "Second Cup" to have breakfast. The error (of forgetting that we could have had breakfast for free) was a serendipity, as spending our final morning in Banff exploring the beautiful town certainly beats staying inside the hotel.
