Hard Times

Fortunately,this is just my black sense of comedy. For millions of others it is a not very humorous reality.

A Holiday Greeting for Bill O'Reilly

Worth Repeating

Here's two quotes I discovered recently that are worth repeating.


“Corrupted by wealth and power, your government is like a restaurant with only one dish. They’ve got a set of Republican waiters on one side and a set of Democratic waiters on the other side. But no matter which set of waiters brings you the dish, the legislative grub is all prepared in the same Wall Street kitchen.”
–Huey Long

a wise remark by Ibn al-Arabi, a 13th-century Sufi Muslim mystic and philosopher:

“Do not praise your own faith exclusively so that you disbelieve all the rest. If you do this, you will miss the truth of the matter. God, the omnipresent and omniscient, cannot be confined to any one creed, for he says: Wheresoever ye turn, there is the face of Allah. Everybody praises what he knows. His God is his own creature and in praising it, he praises himself, which he would not do if he were just, but his dislike is based on ignorance.”

Beyond our ability to comprehend

Here is a very small slice of a Universe in which the earth is an infinitessimally tiny piece floating in the

vastness. Maybe it's not really all about us.

"That which is impenetrable to us really exists. Behind the secrets of nature remains something subtle,intangible, and inexplicable. Veneration for this force beyond anything that we can comprehend is my religion."

Umm...a daisy?

I'm not sure,but I think it's a daisy therefore it is.

Rain In The Afternoon

It rained all afternoon so I went outside with an umbrella

Danielle/Scott photography on location

Beer-but better

I think this is a better version of the same idea.

Found in Alley

Riding a bike has some advantages. I'd never drive the car down this alley unless I was being chased by terrorists and then I probably wouldn't stop to take a snapshot.

Biking on the beach

I stopped to take a picture

Beer

I think that I shall never hear
A poem more lovelier than beer
The stuff on tap most every place
with snowy cap and golden base
I actually remember that from Mad Magazine before I even drank beer.

Breakfast

yogurt,walnuts,cherries,watermelon,cantelope,raisins and honey
Oh,yeah,blueberries and pineapple

Cat

Saw this guy while riding my bike on the beach.
He stopped, let me take the picture and moved on.

Ocean Mist-now available

Alleged Gay Bridge

To be fair,it changes colors every 10 seconds or so. The other colors don't ask
and don't tell...but they're still not all that comfortable with it.

So...now that I'm unemployed I have lot's of time to play with the produce I find in the refrigerator.

According to Rush Limbaugh

I keep getting E-mails and comments from the legions of Limbaugh acolytes who
seriously believe that the people in the list above are the vanguard of the socialist movement in the U.S.
One collection of posters currently making the rounds in cyberspace portrays Obama
as both a socialist and a fascist. There is apparently no contradiction in terms there for these social scientists. Mixed metaphors-no problema. Trillion dollar bailouts
for wealthy capitalists-a clever disguise for the hidden socialist agenda.Arrgghhh!

Exponential Math Video

necklaces

Shot these for a friend's girlfriend to sell on E-bay.
Back in the early seventies I used to sell this kind of beaded jewelry at art fairs around the country.I was living with my friends Wynn and Jesse in Baton Rouge and on weekends we'd split up and travel to whatever shows were within a days drive.I would shoot photos similar to this to submit to the juried shows.

Exposure test

I kind of like this.I think I'll use it for the jacket cover of my novel.
Well... If I had a novel, I'd use it.

The Boatyard

We took the boat to the boatyard on Monday for the biannual out of the water Coast Guard inspection.

Fish

I spotted this fish on the way to the boatyard somewhere along the New River near downtown Ft. Lauderdale.
