Interlopers
We love having feeders in the yard to attract the birds. Cynthia has even gone a step further and buys a cheap loaf of bread so that she can put some out when she gets home from work.
We’ve got tons of sparrows, Ricky and Lucy our mated pair of Cardinals, the occasional Mockingbird, plenty of Doves, a screeching Blue Jay and the House Finches.
We also have squirrels.
We keep trying to find a way to keep them off the feeders but it’s no use. They have all day, every day to ponder and scrutinize the situation and formulate their plans.
They’re a 24/7 think-tank of diabolical, food absconding EVIL with one objective…
Our feeders!
Damn their furry hides!
One joke to bind them all
I can’t claim the idea as my own, but the original graphic I’ve seen was using a Windows command prompt.
BLEH!
Not nearly nerdy enough so I created this using my favorite SSH client.
Here be dragons
How awesome is this fabric pattern?
You may have seen this in a picture I am using online quite a bit, but I failed to present it with any fanfare.
Another Cynthia orginal!
Enter the Dragon!
Numismatic Bill
After I sat pondering Bill’s picture for a bit I realized that the most common use of profiles is on coins. So I created a prototype 75 cent piece featuring Bill.
Profile(s)
While watching The Light Rock Express at Charlie’s Big Top this past Friday I caught this shot of Bill Shirley sporting his “Chin Curtain”.

Toad Coat
Cynthia has made me many wonderful shirts over the last few years, but they pale in comparison to the absolute coolness of her hand-made, one of a kind, coat of many toads.
Cynthia collected the various frog and toad prints over many years and then pieced them together into this marvelous creation.
It’s a real head turner!
