Am I dating myself here?
You betcha.
A glorious memory of a reality savored BY ME in the late 60's.

What You Won't Find Here!
A good old fashioned Rockaway Beach knish.
Am I dating myself here?
You betcha.
A glorious memory of a reality savored BY ME in the late 60's.

The Girl With No Name
For those interested, I don't know who she is, except that she had a pretty face, raven hair and exotic eyes.
She was sitting in a booth at the county fair with no patrons and truly I don't know what she was selling.
But, I thought she looked nice and you would too, after looking at pigs, cows and chickens all day.

The Middle Child
She is the second of 3.
Her oldest sister, Rania, just turned 3 and we have been celebrating her birthday for the past 3 days and will continue I daresay the next 23 hours.
Three weeks ago, a third sister, Safia was born.
So ... I am afraid my poor 15 month old grandchild is temporarily suffering the middle child syndrome.
To compensate for her status, I am posting this photo to memorialize her.
She's a pip, full of energy, with 4 new teeth this week and, suffering the terrible 2's after just turning ONE.
She's a ham and loves her photo taken. I adore her and her plump cheeks to death.
World!
Meet Nisha.

Strange Bedfellows
Now, really and truly,
I don't know if they're an item or not.
But,
I think they are negotiators, communicators and possessors of emotional stability,
They are different from our world leaders or just plain folks in general.
What more can I say about our planet’s condition?
Sigh ….
It's a zoo out there.

Name That City!
Hey there. Let's play a game.
Can you identify the city and its buildings?
Have fun!
And,
Place notes.

A Profile of Courage
At first she reminded me of the Dr. Seuss character in "The Cat with the Hat".
But then I had a flash of the past.
Back in the day, I wore big, big glasses, comfy loose tops, torn jeans, short skirts etc before those styles became voguish in different eras.
And ... I didn't care what people thought.
I prided myself on non- conformity,
So, it was with a sigh and a smile, I took this photo.

The Truth Be Told
Have you ever wondered what he did in the confessional booth?
Now you know!
And, REMEMBER, you saw it here first.
PS ... Taken by me like a speeding bullet, and that's the gospel truth!

The Death of the Western Digital 160 Gig
The Western Digital 160 Gig Passed away, peacefully, with its owner in attendance at the age of 3 years . The Western Digital will be dearly missed by its owner. It was known for its large drive capacity and affordability that drew others to its like-kind.
Most importantly, it will always be remembered by one close to it of its reliability (when it worked) and guarantee of reliability that seemed to know no limit.
Purchased in June 2006, the Western Digital was tooted as an alternative device to safely backing up your important documents and photos.
And that was exactly what the owner did. She trusted it with important text and precious, irreplaceable photographs.
The Western Digital travled far and wide. It visited various parts of the United States and Europe always bringing a sense of relief that the owner's valuables were safely secured.
Upon its demise, the external drive drove its owner into a tailspin.
Many software products were purchased on a trial basis to recapture its data but to no avail. These softwares could not read the data nor could the computer read the data.
After a few months of serious contemplation, a recovery data company called SF Bay Area Low Cost Data Recovery was commissioned to retrieve the important information which it did, much to the owner's relief.
The owner does not need to receive condolences. Rather she wishes to tell you that because of her own experience she recommends the SF Bay Area Low Cost Data Recovery whose telephone number is 510-978-6549 and whose site link is http://www.sfbayarealowcostdatarecovery.com.
Personal Note: I don't care what part of the world you are in ... look at any company and if you are in doubt try SF Bay Area Low Cost Data Recovery. The owner is accessible, reliable and honest. I endorse and recommend them.

Penultimate Homage
He has drawn a caricature of me depicting my travels and taking photos of all around me.
He's a cartoonist extraordinaire from Argentina and has made a living through his art. How many of us can say that?
He has followed my blog, read my silly writings, enjoyed my photos and commented when time permitted.
His name is Toti Spinelli and he has paid me the penultimate homage one artist can pay another.
Follow his other links and TAKE A LOOK AT HIS ARCHIVES.
P.S. I know what you're thinking! No ... I've never met him but I am humbled and honored, that is certain.

Two different views
How could this ride-the-bull want to be cow-girl feel fear and sheer terror?
Her emotions, absolutely and under no circumstances, DID NOT circumvent my own.
(Okay! So, I am being selfish.)
You see, today was a photo-journalistic nightmare, for me!
The camera and I just didn't click at all.
Worst day ever and I can't stress that enough.
Not at all!
Quite disheartening, really.
Oh, and the courageous girl?
Well ... she fell and walked away in once piece from the tyrannical toro
And I,
I will begin again another day.
Sigh ....

Hit and Run Hula Dancers
She's got a flower in her hair, a lei around her neck and an inviting smile.
I don't know her name,
but she's part of a group called the Hit & Run Hula dancers.
I was at the Academy of Sciences in San Francisco when, from a distance, I heard this wonderful, seasonic music that ended and I thought no more.
But what luck for me.
As I turned they walked towards a huge dry fountain,
Assembled,
And, began to dance.
