Hey. Thanks for reading my nonsense. Much love.
(Randomly inserted useful suggestion: Buy yourself something nice from any of your favorite online shops - Paypal's running a nice little refund thing right now, and you have until the end of March to spend the money to get your kickback.)
I leave you with a pretty picture of a statue (artist unknown) that was just "unveiled" (read: plastic removed) in front of the new gargantuan building downtown that houses, among other things, a 12-theatre cineplex. Perhaps someday I'll share my thoughts on having a cineplex in the middle of downtown, amidst the belching congestion, drunk club kids, and eight-dollar parking garages. (Or I can just share my thoughts now: It's stupid.)
Point is: the statue is pretty.
Oh, and for those of you who bothered to keep reading.........VALENTINE'S CONTEST!!! Hee! (You didn't think I'd show my love and affection just in words, did you??)
What the HELL this THING?? It's a
Mwah!
Seriously...what is that??? But here are my thoughts.
ReplyDeleteA young CIA operative was secretly put in there at night to watch for terrorist activities. It is trendy looking terrorist outlook posts. The poor guy was told he might be there for the next 20 years, but he's so excited about being in the CIA he agreed to sell them his soul, I mean donate his time. He has packets of astronaut food, an a state of the art communication kit to talk to his higher ups. Luckily before they secured him in there he learned to knit and has enough for 70 pairs of socks and 10 shawls. We're hoping he starts a blog soon.
LOL! I don't think I can top cbknits80. It looks to me like a stretched out pineapple, possibly designed by Andy Warhol, used to house thousands and thousands of bats. They come out at night and swarm the city. Keep the knitting needles handy, you may have to poke 'em.
ReplyDeleteMy theory: it's a biological trap for moths! They have super special yarn inside a maze. All moths in a ray of 10000 miles will be attracted to this super-smell yarn, fall inside the maze, and never come up again! Mua-ha-ha! (evil laugh!)
ReplyDeleteDo you recall the collapsable drinking cups from camping trips when you were a kid?
ReplyDeleteThis appears to be a REALLY, REALLY large, fancy one (made of glass instead of the traditional and much more common plastic. Perhaps King Kong is trying to impress Faye Raye? ... it seems to have a swanky folding umbrella poking out of the top -- so maybe Mr. Kong was planning to have daquaris with Miss Raye and realized he only had one glass, and set this classy, uncommonly large tumbler down while he ran to Walmart to get an appropriate matching glass for his Valentine's date ... I'm pretty sure that's why it is there (I recall reading in the Sunday paper that there was a sale on collapsable camp tumblers!)
It's actually a palm tree that is in the witness protection program and trying to disguise it's identity.
ReplyDeleteNot to be outdone by Disney and Universal, NASA has contributed to the "Happiest Place in the World" with an earthbound ship for wayward astronauts. One adult diaper gets you admission to ship and NASA's fantasy road trip entitled Scuttled Shuttle Trips, the 900 mile delusion. Experience up close and personal NASAs failed experiment zero gravity and the broken heart. Night launch admission requires additional diapers.
ReplyDeleteok, so I'm not really eligible for the contest because I don't own any needles, but maybe I'll get an honorable mention because I enable a knitter with a few skeins and bags of rovings...and besides I have always hated that monstrosity
Well of course it's an artificial pineapple top, ready to be planted and to grow into an unusual, yet strangely fascinating tree. But for some reason they have not yet planted the 4 "roots", perhaps they fear the consequences of playing God... Nah, they just watched too many robots-take-over-the-future movies.
ReplyDeleteHappy belated Valentines to you!
What's wrong with you people? Don't you recognize a UFO landing pad when you see one?
ReplyDeleteAwww shit!! Someone done snuck in my house and took a pic of my new dildo! It's the latest model, ya'll should really try one....woman or man. It's the one that SERIOUSLY hits your G-spot...and H, I, and J-spots while it's at it.
ReplyDeleteReally SCRATCHES that itch w/those little fuzzy things on top...
Bzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz
PS: It's extend-a-size. Make it as small or HUGE as you like it!
ReplyDelete;o)
I know I'm way too late, but I had to comment!
ReplyDeleteAn avante-garde artist, commissioned to create a new sculpture for the city, is jilted by his lover shortly before beginning the creation of the work destined to become his masterpiece! Lost in grief and depression, he creates a work of art to tell the world, and his lover, that he does not suffer from the inadequacy he has been accused of.
