The Country Music Singer


Actually he didn't play guitar for the last fifty years, but at least he posed for me and my brother as a country music singer. Maybe some of you guessed already, he is my father, he was visiting us, and I took this shot on Sunday...

Today's joke:

There were two golfers on the golf course. One of the men pulled out a cigarette, and asked his friend for a light. His friend pulls out a 12 inch Bic lighter.
- "Woah, where did you get such a large Bic?"
- "Oh, my genie got it for me."
- "Your genie? You have a genie? Where is he?"
- "He is in my golf bag."
- "Can I see him?"
So the friend looks in the bag and out comes the genie. The man says to the genie; "I am your master's best friend. Would you grant me just one wish?"
The genie says "yes, just one wish". So the man wishes for a million bucks. The genie goes back in the golf bag without saying a word. Pretty soon, the sky starts to get dark. Then it gets even darker. The man looks up and sees a million ducks. He gets real upset, and says "what is the matter with your genie? Is he hard of hearing? I said a million Bucks, not a million Ducks."
"Do you really think I asked for a 12 inch Bic?"

Between the Lines


Hmm, I don't know which one to say it's the original shot, 'cause there are two halves! Well, I'd start with the sea, the shot was taken in the bay of Shore Acres, TX while the clouds are "Made In Indiana" (uff, finally something not made in China!!!). Yes, the boat was right there, just had to remove other three boats... parol d'honeur, I didn't sink 'em!

Today's joke is from Georgia, where actually I am right now:

A young man from Georgia came running in the restaurant and said to his buddy:
"Bubba, somebody just stole your pickup truck from the parking lot!"
Bubba replied:
"Did you see who it was?"
The young man answered:
"I couldn't tell, but I got the license number..."

Arkansas - The (So) Natural State


I never had in mind to create such a collage, I had other images that were waiting on line, but after traveling through the Natural State aka Diamond State aka Arkansas, I had to do it. There was an ice storm the day before, so when I got there I expected to find nice and clean roads... well, what I found was totally different. The state of Arkansas loves the nature too much to remove that natural ice from the roads. Also they love and care too much for that salt to throw it just away on the roads. Even in their Capital was the same situation, with roads covered in ice, or should I say "glazed"? So, my dear friends, whenever you intend to travel through Arkansas during the winter time, check the forecast first!


Today's joke is not from Arkansas but West Virginia!

A man in West Virginia had a flat tire, pulled off on the side of the road, and proceeded to put a withered bouquet of flowers in front of the car and another one behind it. Then he got back in the car and waited.
A passerby rubbernecked the scene as he drove by and was so curious he turned around and went back. He asked the fellow what the problem was.
The man replied, "I got me a flat tar."
The passerby asked, "But what's with the flowers?"
The man responded, "When you breaks down they says to put flares in the front and flares in the back! I
doesn't understand it neither. But, you stopped, so, I guess it works! You got a extry spar?"
