Face in the Mop

Once you see this Bunsen Honeydew-like face on the side of this mop, you can't un-see it. Also reminds me of a Don Martin character.

King of Fans

I will always be...

Husman's Can

Monster Bread

Saw this slice of bread with a face on it, laying in the middle of the sidewalk on Christy Avenue.

Sexton Blake on Kindle

So I finally get on board with 21st century Kindle technology, and what do I use it for? Looking at crude PDF scans of ancient crumbling Sexton Blake pulp fiction stories from 1908.

Undulating Fibers

Between being a cat owner and a fiber arts enthusiast - plus an antiques/junk/crap collector - my home and clothes are always a forensic nightmare. Dust and little fibers clinging everywhere.

It fascinates me how these tiny fibers will move and sway, even when in an environment with no air circulation. Sometimes you can even put a glass over something that has one of the fibers clinging to it, and it will still wiggle around, almost as if alive, almost as if swaying in the breeze - yet there's no breeze.

Last night, I watched as this cluster of fibers did an exotic bellydance, using my digital camera's display as a video microscope. There was no air moving in the room, and I held my breath, yet the fibers wriggled on, standing up on end and coiling around each other. It was a very creepy feeling, as the fibers gave the illusion of actual sentience in their movements.

I assume - but I really have no idea - that the motion of the fibers is caused by A) static electricity, B) uneven temperature in the air, and C) gravity/momentum as the fiber's own micro-weight shifts gently from where it's clinging. However, more paranoid minds than my own have tried to implicate tiny fibers into conspiracy theory.

Sea Hagg

There are plenty of fascinating museums in the Gulf Coast area, but this Cortez, FL nautical-antiques store The Sea Hagg tops them all, and it's free.
