I have seen miraculous things, but this picture of MONKEY at the G7 caused me to almost fall off my chair! It was sent to me by a friend, who recognized him from the post. He tried to talk with him, but by the time he got through security and on the stage, the monkey was nowhere to be found. Monkey really moves fast. I don't know monkey’s connection to the G7, but he always liked President Biden. Some mischief is afoot. My friends, this is wonderful news. I am hoping he his…

With all the excitement about billionaires going into outer space, it was no surprise that my scandalous monkey has found a way to weasel a ticket with Virgin Galactic ! This picture was sent to me by a sharp Noiser who was following the space launch closely. Apparently monkey also wants to get to space before Bezos, and must have used his contacts at NASA to become a crew member. I had no idea he even knew Sir Richard. I wish him safe (space) travels, and hope he sends a…
The struggle is real - That monkey is a handful. I never know what he is up to, and I am wising up to why my grandson left him at my condo. My neighbors are pretty upset that he took off, because they don't have a weekly card game anymore (since he was the dealer). Thanks for the compliment! -and stay tuned, Monkey is a fast moving character, you never know where he may show up!

One of the 4th of July traditions is a backyard Barbeque. Here is my grill, with zucchini, Hamburgers, and hot dogs - Traditional fare for an American Holiday! Sorry I don't have more pictures, but I was too busy stuffing my face and drinking ice cold beer! Hope you had a good weekend as well!
I am indeed fortunate that I am gaining new friends everywhere! A Noiser in London has sent me this picture of the Monkey at Buckingham Palace! You can clearly see that rascal in the lower left hand corner of the picture). Rumor has it that he is going to have an audience with the Queen. This can be an international incident, and I have no idea what pretext this Royal meeting will have, but I hope some good comes of it. I had some Government agents contact me about his…
I first encountered this Mermaid in Port Salerno, Florida in 2009. I had coffee with her. I wonder if she is still there today...

This Print is titled: "The Pink Table" by Georges Braque, 1935. I have it hanging in my house, it was a favorite of my mother. Georges Braque (/brɑːk, bræk/ BRA(H)K, French: [ʒɔʁʒ bʁak]; 13 May 1882 – 31 August 1963) was a major 20th-century French painter, collagist, draughtsman, printmaker and sculptor. His most important contributions were in his alliance with Fauvism from 1905, and the role he played in the development of Cubism. Braque's work between 1908 and 1912 is…
this is a dream catcher I may put in my window. (Apologies to the Native Americans who may find this offensive - and most probably find most rednecks offensive) #Bikini
This is a view of the Stratosphere tower in Las Vegas, from May of 2018. The desert is almost monochromatic, compared to sunny locales with green trees and blue waters. I had a wonderful time, and took pictures from the top of the stratosphere as well! Vegas is an amazing place, even if you are not gambling. #LasVegas
These pictures are from a cruise on Royal Caribbean that I took in 2005. They still had a Midnight Buffet on the ship "Radiance of the Seas". The chefs got to show off, putting out a spread that is resplendent with ice carvings, Food in all shapes and colors - Even a bread presentation that is decadent and wonderful. They food is on display from 11PM to 11:59PM, and at Midnight the gluttonous passengers devour the art! I don't know when the cruise lines will start to sail…
This is a serving of 2 hot dogs and air-fryer French fries. The air-fryer cooks the fries with almost no oil, and the hot dogs are boiled - my personal preference - Like the "dirty water dogs" sold on pushcarts in New York City. I guess you can take the boy out of New York, but you can't take New York out of the boy!
I traveled to Belize in June. Swimming with the Sharks at Hol Chan Marine preserve was a phenomenal experience! Fortunately, the sharks were not hungry for me that day, and let me photograph them. (fortunately, they are nurse sharks, and have no taste for eating humans)
