I couldn't resist, then others started following, until the people who actually wanted to use the phone had to assert their presence.

["Stage Three: Bargaining"]
Giraffe: Are you there, God? It's me, Giraffe. Li-listen if you could just give me a mulligan on this quicksand thing, I promise, I promise, no more peeing on your shorter creatures. [Laughs nervously.] We got a deal?
["Stage Four: Depression"]
Giraffe: [Screams and cries.] MOMMY!!

Giraffe: You know somethin'? I'm cool with this. I-I bet, I bet heaven has all the tender leaves I can eat and everyone gets their own Slurpee machine. Yeah! Take me sweet death!

Here's a stocking adjustment, executed publicly and in full view on a higher walkway in the hotel lobby. Nobody is near though so if I do it quickly probably no one will notice, and the short skirt enables me to be super fast and discrete. It's always a joy to do a stocking adjustment as it makes me feel so feminine and seductive, and although nobody may see me here I still know that you are watching. 😉

A small fast moving spider as I photographed flies and wasps on Verticordia around a small swamp.
Quick and dirty photoshop after doing self portraits of shaving my head and wearing a cat for a hat.
Very hastily put together shot today, so nothing very different with the setup.
The subject placed on a sheet of glass painted black on the underside.
Black background approx 12inches/300mm behind.
A pair of 20W CFL lamps placed to the sides in modified Pringles tube reflectors.
Between the lights and subject, a pair of screens containing tracing paper to soften the light.
Finally a couple of black cards placed behind the lights, to prevent stray light from hitting the background.
Job done and click ;-)
After missing the first two days of Texans training camp before agreeing to a five-year, $14 million contract Saturday, outside linebacker Brian Cushing is eager to get on the practice field today with his new teammates.
Cushing, the first-round draft choice from Southern California, is getting $10.435 million in guaranteed money to become the starter on the strong side and help improve a defense that ranked 22nd last season, including 23rd against the run.
“I’m just relieved and excited to have this done,” Cushing said. “I’m ready to play football and help the team win.”
Cushing (6-3, 262) was in Los Angeles when agent Tom Condon reached the agreement with general manager Rick Smith and director of football administration Chris Olsen.
Cushing’s contract could be worth a maximum of $18 million over five years.
In the fifth year of his deal, there’s a clause that could earn him an additional $4 million in an escalator bonus.
Odds are that Cushing’s contract will be extended before he enters the fifth season in 2013.
Smith and Olsen will have all eight of their draft choices under contract when the Texans take the field for the third day of two-a-day drills at their Methodist Training Center.
“It’s very important to have him signed,” coach Gary Kubiak said. “Rick and Chris were up at 3 in the morning trying to get it done. They’ve done a good job.
“Brian’s two days behind now, but he didn’t miss anything we did in the offseason program, so that’s a good thing. He wanted to be here while we were working on the contract, but he couldn’t.”
Rookies who have signed with the Texans report a week early for conditioning and meetings before practicing for the first time with the veterans. Cushing wanted to report with the rookies.
He was working out at Reliant Stadium last week when the Texans had to explain league rules that forced him to leave.
Cushing took what turned out to be a quick trip back to Los Angeles. He returned to Houston on Saturday afternoon.
Texans coaches are excited to get him on the practice field.
“We’re going to put the pads on (Sunday morning), and I know he’s chomping at the bit to get out there,” Kubiak said.
After the Texans used the 15th pick in the first round on Cushing, they inserted him into the starting lineup. He impressed his coaches in the organized team activities and minicamp.
“We like his presence on the ball,” Kubiak said, meaning Cushing has a knack for finding the ball and making plays. “He’s playing over the tight end, and we’re going to ask him to do a great deal. We think he can handle it.
“Brian’s very athletic. He’s physical against the run. He can rush the passer. He can drop into coverage. We brought him here for a reason, and we’re going to put him to work real fast.”
Frank Bush, who is in his first season as defensive coordinator, has to make calls that maximize Cushing’s strengths. The faster Cushing learns, the quicker Bush plans to utilize all his talent.
“We’re going to try to take advantage of all his talent,” Bush said. “Because he’s such a talented kid, there are a lot of things we can do with him.”
The coaches say they think Cushing has everything it takes to become a star at his position.
“Brian can turn and run with the tight end,” Bush said. “He’s big and strong enough to strike them at the line of scrimmage and nullify some of their speed down the field, so we’re comfortable with him in coverage.
“His ability also gives us a chance to be aggressive toward the quarterback. He’s a big guy who’s shown he can get there.”
Kodak’s story begins in 1888 when George Eastman introduced the first Kodak camera—a simple box device preloaded with a roll of film and marketed with the slogan “You press the button, we do the rest.” This innovation revolutionized photography by making it accessible to amateurs, eliminating the need for complex equipment and development processes. Kodak quickly became synonymous with snapshot culture, especially after launching the affordable Brownie camera in 1900, which helped popularize photography among children and families.
Throughout the 20th century, Kodak dominated the global photography market, producing iconic models like the Instamatic and pioneering color film with Kodachrome. Despite inventing the first digital camera in 1975, Kodak hesitated to pivot away from its lucrative film business. This reluctance, coupled with rising competition and the digital revolution, led to its decline and eventual bankruptcy filing in 2012. Today, Kodak continues to operate in niche imaging and printing sectors, but its golden era remains a testament to how one company shaped the way the world captured memories.

I started my quick card 1/2 hour late and I am afraid it shows. Notice the upside down patterned paper. Oops! And that was the third try at it. But I think I got it in just under the wire.
