Craftsmanship


I'm not too optimistic about the craftsmanship of the UAW assembled car, but this was actually painted on to the side of this building.  The detail of the painting was very impressive.

Not What They Seem




When I first saw these on a side street in Manhattan, I thought they were some sort of new Islamic Barriers (those stanchions that are planted to prevent an Islamic terrorist from driving a truck full of explosives into a building).  However, they turned out to be a giant bike rack for a new bike share program the city will be piloting.

Epic


I recently attended a birthday party for a Centenarian.  It was the first one I had ever attended and it was for only the 2nd one I had ever known.  Yet my local CVS had a card for the occasion although there was only one choice as opposed to 3 different cards for those turning 90.  When I purchased it I reflected that it might be the only time I ever have an occasion to purchase such a card.  What an accomplishment.

Free Danny


Danny was a birthday present my brother (a Miami Dolphins fan) received a number of years back.  A few weeks ago he relocated and now lives in a townhouse overlooking a large river.  Danny now resides on a balcony just a stones throw from returning to the sea.  So close, yet so far.
