The strongest is never strong enough always to be master, unless he transforms strength into right, and obedience into duty.


I just really, really, like this photograph.

It IS eye catching - they're both sooo cute and adorable!

To answer your question on my blog post today, it was inside & yes, there were crocodiles! hehehe
As a matter of fact, two VERY LARGE albino crocs! We couldn't believe how big they were. But space they were in wasn't large enough if you ask me. They barely had enough room to turn around, much less swim around. But, I guess the aquarium people know what they're doing better than I!!!
A wonderful photo of your lovely children accompagnied with such true words!!

They are lovely - this is a gorgeous photo. Ezra looks very knowing in this shot - I'd love to know what he was thinking!

Ms. Hays, I thought it looked like crocodile territory. Henry is a fan of the wee beasties.

Blognote, they are certainly a pair of aces!

Louis, they’ll have to start thinking of a X-mas record for fan club members.

MurciaDailyPhoto, thanks!

Priyanka, I knew that you’d like that one.

April, B&W did seem appropriate.

Jackie, I’d imagine that he’s thinking about breasts. Like many men, they do seem to occupy his mind quite a bit of the time. I like how he is looking at me, and Henry is looking at Jen who is just off to the side.

I'm running out of superlatives for your kids and your photography.

Ah, Joe, you never knew the whole of it...

I still have the robot on the job. Here you can see the Tasmanian Museum and Art Gallery . And here is a poem: Soliloquy for One Dead Bruce Dawe Ah, no, Joe, you never knew the whole of it, the whistling which is only the wind in the chimney's smoking belly, the footsteps on the muddy path that are always somebody else's. I think of your limbs down there, softly becoming mineral, the life of grasses, and the old love of you thrusts the tears up into my eyes, with the family aware and looking everywhere else. Sometimes when summer is over the land, when the heat quickens the deaf timbers, and birds are thick in the plumbs again, my heart sickens, Joe, calling for the water of your voice and the gone agony of your nearness. I try hard to forget, saying: If God wills, it must be so, because of His goodness, because- but the grasshopper memory leaps in the long thicket, knowing no ease. Ah, Joe, you never knew the whole of it... I like Bruce Dawe. He just my be my favourite Austral...

There was nothing left. No reason, no conscience, no understanding; even the most rudimentary sense of life or death, good or evil, right or wrong.

Here is a self portrait. I’m calling it Portrait of a lady in a dirty window . Shocking, isn’t it? However, it is apt! Samhain , Nos Galan Gaeaf , Hop-tu-Naa , All Saints , All Hallows , Hallowmas , Hallowe'en or HALLOWEEN . It’s Theme Thursday and we’re talking about the festivals traditionally held at the end of the harvest season. Huh? No wonder Australians have trouble with the concept of HALLOWEEN. For the record, in my thirty-two L O N G years on the planet, I can’t say I’ve ever seen ghosts ‘n goblins, trick ‘n treaters or Michael Myers stalking Tasmania’s streets at the end of October. [That said, I did once see a woman as pale as a ghost turning tricks that looked like Michael Myers in late November one time.] Despite the best efforts of Hollywood, sitcoms, and innumerable companies; it seems Australians are impervious to the [ahem] charms of a corporatized variant of a celebration of the end of the "lighter half" of the year and beginning of the "darke...

In dreams begin responsibilities.

A life at sea, that's for me, only I just don't have the BREAD. That's right, Theme Thursday yet again and I post a photo of a yacht dicking about in Bass Strait just off Wynyard. The problem is, I am yet again stuck at work, slogging away, because I knead need the dough . My understanding is that it is the dough that makes the BREAD. And it is the BREAD that buys the yacht. On my salary though, I will be lucky to have enough dough or BREAD for a half dozen dinner rolls. Happy Theme Thursday people, sorry for the rush.
