The Merenge

The Merenge is another of those South American dances. Wild music and wilder dancers are the keys to this vertical intercourse. Even Golden Retrievers enjoy it. Watch her tail! And the grin. Found over at Gawker

Teabaggers Rule

Here is proof that Glenn Beck and Sarah Palin are right. Unlike those deluded Boston Teapartiers who wanted taxation with representation, we Tea Baggers want Representation WITHOUT taxation. Except for war. I want 100% of the taxes I pay to go to support our wars. It’s what the Bible wants. It’s what God wants. It’s [...]

Abdul came to New York City, and, as so many immigrants do, he became a taxi driver. But he was determined to be no ordinary taxi driver… at the end of a 15-hour workday, he went home to city street maps and tour guides, and studied and studied. Within a fairly short time he knew [...]

Firstly man-made framing. With a number of frames within the frame. Secondly a [...]

Ultimate Cyoot

From the R.M.Williams OUTBACK magazine’s Photos, comes this almost too good to be true image. Taken in Coffs Harbour in NSW, it shows pup ‘Leo’ in an affectionate moment with his best mate ‘Calfie boy’. Almost too cute for words. Found over here.
