Sunday Syllabub
Dan Collins asked me lately "why are you not posting" and I have to say that it is work, and I have a terrible case of floaters which requires me to suffer the indignity of proof-reading or the shame of the resulting equivalent of Charles Bonnet syndrome in my writings. Plus blogspot hates my browser. Also, I have my moods.
Yet, I think there may be another reason which I did not fully comprehend, until it was pointed out by the local MSM. They didn't like a pic my husband snapped and complained my image "doesn't really say blogger." I must need some convincing props, like a cabana boy or something , though I swear I was blogging like 30 seconds before DH snagged it with the Iphone.
So now I'm FORCING myself to post, and DH is handing me a cool drink to build my confidence. Adding links all afternoon:
----------
Light and cool for a humid Sunday -
The auto crash that would not end, yes it goes on and on..
Echidna! That's what she said.
Monotreme fore-play?
You do the math.
A milky supernova in the sky. Warning: do not even think of famous misheard lyrics and Jimi Hendrix.
An Ambiguous animation painted on public walls: "MUTO" Link goes to a brilliant but weird video made with stop motion.
I'm always trying to figure out the transformation art of another artist, M.C. Escher.
The best weird anecdote I ever heard about Escher was how he preferred cheese sandwiches as a child and would be so particular about tiling the cheese slices on the bread. He would peel them off and reassemble for perfection, annoying the friend who related this tale. later on, his descendents would go on to write letters to sandwich shops.
A gallery of Escher's works may be found here.

Yo! Transforming Citroën C4 car! Well, you have been SERVED by Chevy Aveo. As in, they drove away from your dancing car bootie. Link goes to Youtube.
Here's the original dancing Citroen viral ad (you tube) on which the mocking is based.
ANTS ANTS ANTS! Wacky foreign dadaist Ants! Now is the time on electrical sockets when we dance!
