Nothing like a adorable Husky video to get my day started right!

A perfect birthday or Christmas gift?

This bad boy has just been declared street legal. It looks incredibly awkward to drive, but I'll figure it out. 

Here's a link on its detes and a video:

Winning pieces

I find inspiration in the damnedest places, and when I do, I snap a photo of it. I've developed a nice little collection to browse through and reflect upon. Some are funny, some are oohhh so true, and some just fun to look at. I won't overwhelm you with all of them at once, but in tasty little doses. Here's the first spoonful:

A "lol'er"

And another

Ok, yes, yes I will!

Amen. 

My work. No matter what, PRESS ON.

Incredible romance

The Lovers of Valdaro...believed to be no older than twenty years of age when death occurred. Over 5,000 years old and locked in an eternal embrace. Tragically, their story is unknown. Ironically, they were found in the city of Mantua, Italy. The city Shakespeare chose to set the story of Romeo & Juliet.

Si.

This is touching:

"When I was about twenty years old, I met an old pastor's wife who told me that when she was young and had her first child, she didn't believe in striking children, although spanking kids with a switch pulled from a tree was standard punishment at the time. "But one day when her son was four or five, he did something that she felt warranted a spanking--the first in his life. And she told him he would have to go outside and find a switch for her to hit him with. The boy was gone a long time. And when he came back in, he was crying. "He said to her, 'Mama, I couldn't find a switch, but here's a rock you can throw at me.' All of the sudden a mother understood how the situation felt from the child's point of view: that if my mother wants to hurt me, it makes no difference what she does it with; she might as well do it with a stone. "The mother took the boy onto her lap and they both cried. Then she laid the rock on a shelf in the kitchen to remind herself forever: never violence. Because violence begins in the nursery--one can raise children into violence." ~From a peace prize acceptance speech given by Astrid Lindgren, author of Pippi Longstocking
