Well now. A new word today, thanks to Kathy Shadle at www.fivefeetoffury.com – the word is “Trichology”, and the meaning is:

tri·chol·o·gy [trih-kol–uh-jee]

noun the science dealing with the study of the hair and its diseases.

Apparently black women don’t swim if they are obsessed with their hair! Kinky is out……

The elephant in the room? All the black-brown world hates the whites. Imitation is the most sincere form of ???

And a marvelous football sneak play from Kate McMillan at www.smalldeadanimals.com – this video reminds me of a few missed opportunities I’ve had:

It’s quite obvious the yellow-purple team doesn’t know the rules of the game as intimately as they should….. Very reminiscent of the argument that “separation of church and state” is written in the US constitution, it’s amendments, or the bill of rights. And the word “democracy”. Some people insist that it is so written. If you don’t know what the words actually are, you are gullible and can be flim-flammed by those who wish to mislead you.

Which leads (of course!) to demotivation posters. Here are some I found very amusing. OK, funny. OK, OK, very funny…….

WARNING! THERE IS NO VALUE IN VIEWING THE PICTURES BELOW! I’M GOOFING OFF BECAUSE IT ISN’T PARTICULARLY PLEASANT OUTSIDE, AND I HAVE CHORES TO DO THAT AREN’T INSPIRING. LOOK AT YOUR OWN (TIME LOSS) RISK:

Gotta throw in a few political ‘toons to balance things………..

Look at all those leaves. Is there some animal that eats them? Probably not, or I’d have one (or two).

Time to go outside and stand around for a while….. and wait for happy(er) hour!
