Rapture (t)

Vel O. Ciraptor loved this vantage point. It was a great place to decide what to have for dinner. Such variety.

The Bulb

I had no idea one little light bulb could cause so much damage! I need to remember not to throw light bulbs.

Disregard (t)

Another example of the total disregard of nature. Someone relocated and defaced this perfectly beautiful boulder. When will people come to their senses? It was probably a prank committed by drunken college students!

Simple

Sometimes it's the simple things that give the most satisfaction.

Rivalry

It's the same old story of sibling rivalry. Squeak and Pip are both interested in the leading role of the play, Silence of the Ewes. They haven't talked to each other in a week. Things were exacerbated when Pip blurted out, "there's no way we had the same Dad!"

Slow To Grasp

The last thing Horace saw while tooling down the freeway with his oversized load was the 14'-11" clearance sign. He didn't even have time to realize his 15'-3" height was a little high.

Probing

Sometimes, it is nice to know the players. Like this sign indicates, a lot of shorebirds have long bills used for probing or picking. Kind of like our governmental representatives.

Thirds Blow

Ricco was still recovering from the massive honey bee smothering that took place yesterday. The bees pretty much massaged every part of his body and his vision is a little blurry today.

It Will Never Pass (t)

At first, Naomi thought there was a fire on the horizon. But, it didn't smell like smoke. Then, Naomi realized what it was. The stench of politics!

You Are Next, Bud!

This is Woody the Cat's "I can take this guy" look when he thought it was time for his toy to play.
