Flibble,
It is in a class by itself for a good reason. IMO, even though you have this fantastic creativity and humor, the end result from your photgraphic skills is nothing by seriously good.

Leave it to Fibble, to come up with this one!!! Admirable imagination. I laughed - but when I thought of the reaction a chance passerby would have had to your setup for this photo, I laughed harder and longer. I doubt that your long exposure will come up short. But of course from this angle one cannot tell for sure

I wasn't too worried about being caught, up until Mrs. Flibble sowed a seed of doubt in my mind when she said I might get pulled up for public indecency. Sadly our front garden isn't large enough to look like a public park and our back garden is a church graveyard. Whilst there's a park bench in there, and there's a very pretty tree in blossom, taking a photo like this there was (understandably) not an option.

The very thought of getting caught had us in hysterics, though I have to say, Mrs. Flibble acted out her role of indifferent onlooker a little too proficiently.

What a wonderfully indulgent wife you have.

Being a rather long fan of British humor myself, I can't help but notice that, given her apparent lack of interest, she must find your post to be a bit less than pythonesque.

And speaking of wooden posts, is that a Lumberjack I see in yonder forest?

Everything is perfect in this shot. The composition, the lighthing, the color saturation, the grey sky, the watch, the red socks really makes this picture exceptionnal.

People from this forum are very lucky to have a genius like you to fuel our imagination!

Mrs Flibble is on in a mi... er.... 6 billion. I kinda had to say that or it would imply that there's a chance I'll find another Mrs. Flibble, and that wouldn't please Mrs. Flibble one iota.

So you've guessed my real life profession....

I'm a lumberjack and I'm okay
I sleep all night and I work all day

I cut down trees, I eat my lunch
I go to the lavat'ry
On Wednesdays I go shopping
And have buttered scones for tea

I cut down trees, I skip and jump
I love to press wild flow'rs
I put on women's clothing
And hang around in bars

I cut down trees, I wear high heels
Suspendies and a bra
I wish I'd been a girlie
Just like my dear papa


And yes... I am rugged.

You are most kind fine sir, I taught Einstein everything he knew. This one time, Einstein and I were down the pub discussing the inner proto-indomaticulations of the zymurgy gene. It was all going great, Einstein was lapping up everything like a sponge, when unexpectedly he said, "E=MC triangled". The room fell silent. All eyes fell to Einstein - it was a palpable moment that almost went down in history. I took the opportunity of the silnce to correctly correct Einstein, and the room erruprted in a frenzied cheer.

Sadly, Einstein got some of his bruiser friends to lock me up for the next few years, during which time he had everyone present during that day silenced and went on to claim the idea as his.

Sad, but all perfectly true.


Have you seen my pills? Anyone? The voices are turning fluffy...

While I have no time to participate this week, much less comment on the entries.
I had to take a brief pause from work and say,
I truly enjoy when you go off on a tangent, thanks for the sense of humor.
