Yup, as many of you figured out yesterday, the announcement about me leaving was all a prank. :)
While some of the stuff I said was true, like me being more busy these days and running a bit low on new ideas, the rest was mostly exaggeration and I still love making funnies. Just because Flickr is changing a little and some jokes aren't always a hit is no reason to leave, so don't worry, I'm not going anywhere anytime soon. ;-) I will only be on vacation for a week, but after that, it's business as usual.
I hope you had a nice April Fools Day and still enjoy my work.
Tattoo on my right leg of the tarot card "The Fool" depicted as a calacas, or skeleton from The Day of the Dead festival. My concept, designed and tattooed by Martin of Lucky Stars Tattoos, San Jose, California.
This photo was on Flickr's Explore on September 10, 2004.
I was busy doing very little today :-) I woke up, did the flickr thing, watched some T.V., napped, hiked with the family, went for a drive, made Indian, played some wii with the family, and then fooled around with this photo. I am not certain if I like it or not. I am putting it out there though...
Listening to Bruno Mars - The Lazy Song
I've probably already titled a picture after that song. But too bad. This is from our cruise in 2006. I think its when we were in.. Costa Maya maybe? Im not sure but we were on a very jumpy bumpy bus and I remember having trouble taking a picture. Yayyy sun spot. flare. burst. whatever.
Bought in Bordeaux, France. Hand tinted April Fool's day (1st April) card. Fish in photo refer to the French tradition of calling it "April Fish day" - don't know why.
Fool Creek is a beautiful stream north of Burgess Junction in the northern Bighorn Mountains of Wyoming. This is a beautiful place. When I was a boy, my dad brought me to fish on this creek usually a little further down from where this photo was taken. Usually I didn't fish much but collected rocks and fossils while my dad and brother fished.
um....april fools!

This Cattle Egret had seen it all before!
Re-post of an image that has been re-worked and framed by a friend.
The Fools’ Fountain (Narrenbrunnen) in Kleve by the Collegiate Church. By Annette Mürdter and erected 2001. The bronze, water-spouting heads recall the once-present 'head' of society, the king, and six councilors.

These plants were fooled by Toronto's surprising warm spells in February. Yesterday actually set a record for February 28th). Tomorrow we expect a significant amount of snow so I wonder what will happen to these plants. They may survive the same way they survived a snowfall last week. Hardy things, these Toronto plants.
Don't fool yourself and think it was warm because he is in short sleeves - I guess Icelander do that when the sun is out no matter how cold it is ;o))
Mach dir nichts vor and glaub jetzt, es war warm, weil er in kurzärmligen Shirt ist - ich vermutete oft, dass Isländer dies tun, sobald die Sonne draussen ist ;o)))
Fool's Bull was a veteran of Little Big Horn, and the shield seen here was made of materials he carried in that battle. This photo, by John Anderson, was probably taken on the Rosebud reservation, c. 1900.

Trompe-l'oeil, Fooling the Eye and other Forms of Eck Eck
Mary Magdalene
Hispano-Filipino
c. 1750-1815
Solid ivory image surrounded by a silver radiance known as a “Rafaga”.
Height of Ivory: 9 in; 13.5 in to top of crown; 17 in to top of radiance.
Overall Height w/ Base: 19.5”h.
This imposing figure is supposedly an ivory carving of the image of Mary Magdalene. But this is an intentional deception in that in this iconography, she is presented as if she were the Virgin Mary. She wears a silver crown. And her entire body is surrounded by a nimbus of light known as the “Rafaga”. At first blush, one is lead to believe that this is an image of the Virgin. And since the Rafaga is traditionally associated only with images of Christ or the Virgin, the addition of this feature was an intentional act to deceive.
According to the auction catalog, this image was formerly in the collection of a Connecticut gentleman and his wife who lived in Columbia for over a decade. This object was purchased from a friend who told him that the image was found in Cali and is reputed to have arrived at Buenaventura, Columbia from Acapulco sometime between 1665-1815.
However, a closer examination of the figure reveals the truth. This is not an image of the Virgin nor any of the Catholic saints. This is a standing image of the goddess Guan-Yin. On her right hand, she holds a rosary-like chaplet of beads but those are just Buddhist prayers beads and have no Catholic symbolism. On her left hand she is supposed to hold the “Holy Grail”. In actuality, she holds a Ruyi scepter, a ceremonial talisman in Chinese Buddhism symbolizing power and good fortune in Chinese folklore.
The dates provided are also irrelevant and misleading. The years between 1665 and 1815 span the entire period of the Manila Galleon trade. Anything and everything arrived in the New World from the East at this time! In other words, they are meaningless.
Although attributed to the Hispano-Filipino workshops, the carving style of the image is not consistent with Philippine carving of images of the Virgin or other female saints. The image wears a long robe which falls in lanky horizontal folds ending at the hem. Her toes do not peep through. She wears no mantle. The edges of the tunic are decorated with geometric designs unknown in Philippine iconography. The carving of the hair is wrong for this attribution. The eponymous “suksuk” or tuck is missing. And her lips are not painted with the trademark orange-red hue of Philippine made saints.
It’s amazing what a little bit of silver can do to fool the eye.

Happy April Fools Day people!
Anyone play any good tricks?
I babysat my little minions today :)
We went for a bike ride and painted rocks and made a sail boat out of sticks.
Then I told them about camera remotes and they were amazed so we attempted this about a million times.
We can get a little out of hand out of hand.
But we're capable of pretending we're normal.
And at the end of the day they still love me.
I apologize for all the pictures :P
