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?"

Lightning Storm (II)



That's another shot taken last night by my brother... of course, it happened again in Houston, TX

Today's joke:

A guy goes to the Government to interview for a job. The interviewer asks him:
- Are you a veteran?
The guy says:
- Why yes, in fact, I served two tours in Vietnam.
- Good, says the interviewer, that counts in your favor. Do you have any service-related disabilities?
The guy says:
- In fact I am 100% disabled. During a battle, an explosion removed my private parts so they declared me disabled, it doesn't affect my ability to work, though.
- Sorry to hear about the damage, but I have some good news for you, I can hire you right now! Our working hours are 8 to 4. Come on in about 10, and we'll get you started.
The guy says:
- If working hours are from 8 to 4, why do you want me to come at 10?
- Well, here at the government, we don't do anything but sit around and scratch our balls for the first two hours. No point of your coming in for that!

Lightning Storm



A huge lightning storm was last night in Houston. This shot was taken by my little brother, Oliver!


Did you know... While both male and female reindeer grow antlers in the summer each year, according to the Alaska Department of Fish and Game, male reindeer drop their antlers at the beginning of winter, usually late November to mid-December. Female reindeer retain their antlers until after they give birth in the spring. Therefore, according to every historical rendition depicting Santa's reindeer, every single one of them, from Rudolph to Blitzen - had to be a girl. We should've known. Only women would be able to drag a fat man in a red velvet suit all around the world in one night and not get lost....

After Storm


A shot taken in Illinois, when a huge storm was over... as you can see, I took this shot while driving...

Yesterday I made a new video clip with my recent posts, if you'd like to watch it, click here.
The song's sound (performed by a romanian band - Trio Express) was in a real bad shape, I had to work a little bit on its quality...

Today's joke:

English class.
The teacher asks a russian immigrant to compose a sentence.
The russian boy says:
- Dis veekend me go forest!
- That's not correct, says the teacher.
- Then me no go! answers the student.
