KONA

HA!  Bet you thought I was going to entertain you with photos from beautiful Hawaii, huh? Well, so sorry, you'll just have to be satisfied with a portrait of a beautiful feline, Kona Berggreen of Solvang, California.

Now what do you suppose I have to do to get a glam pose out of my own fur creature?

Sambo sez "jest fergitaboutit" ... I got better things to do and I ain't sittin' still for no damn woman with a camera!

ICE CHEST ART

I know...I know...reaching the bottom.  But WAIT!  There's more to come.  Stay tuned!

1955 - 2011

"Your time is limited, so don't waste it living someone else's life.  Don't be trapped by dogma -- which is living with the results of other people's thinking.  Don't let the noise of other's opinions drown out your own inner voice.  And most important, have the courage to follow your heart and intuition.  They somehow already know what you truly want to become.  Everything else is secondary."

RIP Steve Jobs

REPEATING

I came across these two fashionistas at the Elephant Seal nursery in San Simeon, January, 2010 -- thought they might be worth a few smiles for a Wednesday Hump Day!

ELIZABETH WARREN

"Every now and then, someone comes along and says something that makes everything clear.  Elizabeth Warren just did that, and the world is taking notice."

"There is nobody in this country who got rich on his own. Nobody. You built a factory out there -- good for you."

"But I want to be clear. You moved your goods to market on the roads the rest of us paid for. You hired workers the rest of us paid to educate. You were safe in your factory because of police forces and fire forces that the rest of us paid for. You didn't have to worry that marauding bands would come and seize everything at your factory..."

"Now look. You built a factory, and it turned into something terrific or a great idea -- God bless! Keep a big hunk of it. But part of the underlying social contract is you take a{nother} hunk of that and pay it forward for the next kid who comes along."

Just sayin'
