Natural Selection...


This first picture shows a beautiful egg, but the toast has glob of jelly that looks like a wolf wearing a football helmet.

The second picture has smoothed out the wolf, but the top edge of the egg is missing.


This third picture has no wolf and has the "just right" top edge of the egg.

Mystery of the MUSHROOMS...


I don't know the story behind the mushrooms.


When I first saw them, I thought the neighbor had installed some outdoor lights. I thought it was a strange place. Then later, when I got closer, I noticed they were mushrooms. At first, I thought they might be Amanita Virosa, which some call DEATH ANGEL (my book calls them Destroying Angel). It has been years since I saw them in the woods, and my memory of them was hazy. The ones I saw in the woods were Amanita Virosa. With the help of the book, I reached what I believe to be an accurate conclusion that these are Chlorophyllum Molybdites, which are also poisonous.


This is the only place I have found them growing in this area (I've been driving around). Strange that they should be next door to my house.

Grass Not Too Long...

Some people have a mindset that they have to cut their grass all the time. I'm a little slower. I think longer grass is better.

Some people like “Green”. With more “Green” comes more oxygen and less carbon dioxide.

“GREEN” Consumes

Carbon Dioxide

I Wasn't Going To Take A Picture...

I Had To Take This Picture...


I saw the clouds outside, and I had to get my camera. I saw this and had to take the picture.

This is Grilled Ground Sirloin on top of Rice with Ranch Dressing.

I'm Seeing Stars...


The large file size of this picture shows Stars, if I magnify.

BUGS CHANGED THEIR STRATEGY

It was last year, 2011, when I first noticed that gnats were committing suicide by taking their last drink and floating on top of wine in my glass. I noticed something floating on top of my wine, and I got a magnifying glass, and I found I was seeing little wings. I started covering my wine that sat in the glass (like, the Ritual Wine). Within the last few days, I noticed a bug trying to find its way into a Jug of Wine. The cap was secure enough, and it didn't get in.
