Never smile at a crocodile

One of the most valuable life lessons that a person can learn is from the Muppet Show.

Smiling at a croc can send mixed signals, such as: Am I your lunch?, or: Would you like to pop off for a cuddle behind that cypress tree?
The poor reptile has no way of knowing what your intention is towards him or her. Are you amorous or nutritious? Are you warm and friendly or are you good with butter?

Anyhow, one of the lessons that the Muppet Show does not give you is how to spot a crocodile. Sometimes the toothy lizards wear uniforms, or too much makeup. They want to sell you a car or perhaps insurance. I even had a crocodile offer oral services in Las Vegas once. (no thank you...)

When in doubt, don't act like food.






On an unrelated subject:

Playing with the camera:
I took this at Henry Hagg lake. The steam and light is from a sawmill that is behind a dam. 15 second exposure.


To steal a phrase

Fluffy white fuck.

or: Very Bad Vladi.

Give us a soul?

What I did with my day

I have quite a few projects that want doing, this was one of them. I changed the design 3 times, and then just made it with no design in mind.

Made from Bloodwood and recovered Ipe.

Rain:

Rain is useful at times, but too much of it makes me a little loopy, especially during my vacation. Here is the result:

Hello Lunch!

As I ponder your mozzarella goodness I am transported my childhood on Easter Island, where my parents had a modest mozzarella farm. Growing up digging in the dirt for the succulent white pearls that only bloom there during late spring were the happiest days of my life. I am getting misty as I write.

The bed of olive oil floating on balsamic vinegar is a gift from Riot Kitty who rescued me from the island hovel made of driftwood and cut marble.

Here is another random picture that I have personally hand selected just for you. I then gathered a team of marketing experts who met to determine when a focus group should poll to decide what was for lunch at the approval meeting for the posting committee. The posting committee had a scheduling conflict so the publishing coordinator was forced into a untenable position re: what text should be included with delivery of graphic product.

err...sorry about that.
