Those arrows on the blog look strictly decorative. There’s no notch for a bow string. With only two tail feathers they wouldn’t be very stable in flight, and if those wooden vanes hit the bow on the way out, they’d tumble.
The beauty with which typefaces were developed before the advent of desktop publishing is breathtaking. Each one was a work of art and fine design. Long ago (and it may still be in my library, somewhere) I had a beautiful book called “101 Alphabets” – "101 practical and decorative hand-lettered styles of alphabets for use by “students, artists, designers, advertising men, and all others interested in lettering”. Now we get things like “comic sans.”
The Blog definitely caught my eye this a.m. And yet I feel constrained to keep quiet about the cartoon of the young lady on the bike, and the other young lady on the front seat of the car. So, I think I’ll just go back and look … again.
RE: Please Come Back…-Oxnate and Teresa walked along the beach one dayAs they walked, strange images flashed across the screen at irregular intervalsWhen they got to the rocks, Teresa looked back and sawThat there was often only one set of footprints in the sand.-Oxnate, she asked, where did you go when you were not commenting?Teresa, I would never leave you. He said.When you saw no comments, I was merely lurking.--Ok, that turned out slightly creepier than I intended.No offense, T.
Believe it or not, I think I remember those pants that Hillary! is wearing in the photo on FB. She used to wear them to class when she taught at the UofA law school back during her Shamelessly-Chasing-Bill-From-Yale-To-Austin-To-Fayetteville Days back in the mid 70s.
I could go on and on but I’m starting to bore me so I can only imagine how the rest of FA World feels (to paraphrase one of her former adversaries, “you may want to move on to another topic”).
Aw, can’t I stick around? Or don’t you want anyone (but me) to know you’re wearing a Playboy-type deer costume with fishnet stockings under that dress-like overcoat?!
Trust me, when you see any female dressed that, they’re either wearing swimwear, leotards, or tights (with fishnet stockings) under those dress-like overcoats!

I can’t take my eye off your right hand-in-pocket, nor help thinking what it is probably holding. Not even to look at your antlers. I’m moving.

As to the woman on the bicycle … why not take satisfaction by any means possible?

coltish1, the young lady in the front seat of the car was actually very educational. It made me go look up the history of the thong.
