Sausage: The Other Ground Hog
The photo is from Jessamyn, who declared it Groan-worthy. I’m still grinning about it. Reminds me of the time Homer said “Yeah, right Lisa. A wonderful, magical animal.”

First it was meat hats, then SuperModelMeat. Now it’s meat cakes.
Yes. Three layers of meat, with ketchup and potato frosting.
It all happened when the groom announced that a man’s cake should be made of meat, ’cause “wedding cackes are all girly.” Apparently a red velvet armadillo groom’s cake isn’t manly enough.
Funny thing, now there’s [...]
This renewed talk of building nuclear weapons here in the US reminded me of an old report of photos of the sky glow from nuclear tests done in Nevada seen over Los Angeles. This one includes the following description:
Atomic explosion, the largest yet set off on the Nevada test range, was clearly visible in Los [...]
Newley Purnell pointed me at this astronomy picture of the day by Antti Kemppainen:
Sometimes the sky itself is the best show in town. On January 26, people from Perth, Australia gathered on a local beach to watch a sky light up with delights near and far. Nearby, fireworks exploded as part of Australia Day celebrations. [...]
Uploaded from before the days when Flickr would keep the original size photos, this is one of my favorite, most spring-y shots. And with weather like we’re having here now — 57° in northern New Hampshire! — it’s very appropriate.

Karen found this spider in the snow yesterday when she wasn’t running for the camera. Will spied several more, all moving laboriously over the crystalline landscape. None of us had ever seen spiders on snow before, but it’s likely we’d never looked.

In my favorite action photo since Will cut a woody, Karen hit the snow with fury.

As usual, beatnikside had to tell me what I missed: Lebowski Fest. It looks like everybody was there. The Dude Jeffrey Lebowski, Theodore Donald ‘Donny’ Kerabatsos, Walter Sobchak, Maude Lebowski, Bunny Lebowski, the rich Jeffrey Lebowski with no legs, and his lacky Brandt. And don’t forget Jesus Quintana or Treehorn’s Thugs. And certainly don’t forget [...]
Ryan IM’d this to me, and it was pretty easy to find that Northern Sun sells them for $4 a pop.
This is serious stuff, but it’s hard not to laugh at the support our pants magnet or some of the stickers here.
just pretend, political criticism, ribbon, support our pants, it’s all okay, funny, car magnets, [...]

While northern-hemisphere inhabitants are enjoying their first day of winter, our cousins in the southern hemisphere are just beginning summer. And in South Africa’s Shark Bay, near Gansbaai, the great whites are departing for other waters.
The great whites make their way to Shark Bay annually between September and January, though they are not hunting, and, [...]
currugated_film’s photo of graffitti in Oaxaca. The caption at Flickr notes that the text to the right says “the solution is in your hands, the rocks are on the ground.”

Above, one of Sandge’s contributions to the The Toy Cameras Pool reminds us that good photography is something that often happens despite the equipment, not because of it.
Of course, no sweeping generalization can go without argument, and in this case I think the toy camera enthusiasts would be joined by the glitch art aficionados, like [...]

Some time ago in St Louis, I stumbled upon Eat-Rite Diner. Aparently I wasn’t the first to be taken in by its charms. Yelp notes:
This is a MUST in St. Louis. However don’t go here for the friendly staff, good food, or fun atmosphere. This place is a joke! They will need to buzz you [...]
