Just Stuff

A nice Friday.  No tractors, grinders, or other strange unidentified landscaping machinery to dent the quiet.  Actually feels like Saturday.  (And isn't that an odd thing...that a day has a "feel" to it..??)

I have a few tidbits to share, plucked randomly from my blog reads today, so settle back for a Friday Coffee Break and look at a sweet video, and some photos.

This is a most adorable video of a puppy having a bath.  It was done in slow motion, and for once, the choice of music in the background is perfect.  So, here's Iso, having a bath...

We can't skip the Inexplicable Sign of the Week.  This one takes the cake.  What in the world..??  Dispose of children here..??  It's from Estonia, where they either have a very weird sense of humor, bad taste in signage, or a serious problem with their children.  Any clues for a meaning on this one..?  Weird, huh...

I love this next one.  Paradise is close, though Desire is just around the corner; unfortunately Panic arrives shortly thereafter.  What were those early Pennsylvania settlers thinking when they named their villages back in the day..?  Apparently they weren't as repressed as we'd like to think...well, until Panic set in, I guess.

I'm always posting cute animal photos, mainly because they're, well...cute.  These horse pictures are beyond cute and into a whole new realm.  Majestic, beautiful, spectacular creatures.  There were other horse photos here, but these two in particular were just breathtaking.

All this white beauty needs is a fairy princess...or a unicorn horn.  Look at that stunning mane.  Humans should be so lucky to have such long, flowing tresses.

But honestly, this black stallion looks like something from myth, doesn't he..??  A horse for Ares, the god of war to ride.  Or, Vercingetorix, the King of Warriors who fought the Romans against all odds in 56 BC.

Though, in this famous painting of Vercingetorix surrendering to Julius Caesar, his horse is actually white.  In my mind, I've always pictured him on a horse like the one above.  I've had a crush on ol' Vercingetorix for years...sigh.  What a guy.

Well, that ought to just about do it for today.  I'll leave you with this one last photo, which made me laugh.  (Click on the photo if you can't read it properly).  Have a good weekend everybody...
