Les habiles tyrans ne sont jamais punis.


Here is the cranky terror of the deep State of Tasmania himself. I think that we must have more teeth on the way given his mood all weekend. I did manage to snap this one of him in an executive mood. Consider yourself lucky that you're seeing a smile and not hearing a wail...

Do you reckon he may be getting ready for a C.E.O. position somewhere.
He definately looks the part.

Ez is looking like the perfect "Sonn Gobur". These two Kashmiri words mean a "good boy" with all the nice traits that one would wish for in a man.
I really dont like the corporate world, so wouldn't say anything on the "executive" part.

Slobber on the sleeves was always my clue that teeth were nearing! Would you want him with a grin all the time? That kind of optimist might become damn annoying.

That is a picture of an Angel...and I don't believe a word...someone who looks this sweet can't be cranky!

Roddy, having just had five months operating in the CEO position, it is safe to say that a baby could do it.
Kris McCracken said…
Yamini, I prefer 'Sonn Gobur' to 'CEO' too. The chair, however, is known as 'the executive'...
Kris McCracken said…
Priyanka, are you trying to say that you think he's cute? ;)
Kris McCracken said…
Chris, slobber EVERYWHERE!
Kris McCracken said…
Collete, you wouldn't have said that at 11:30 last night!
KL said…
A smart, handsome and dashing CEO our Ezra is.
Kris McCracken said…
KL, he is a real ladies man.
What a great, toothey smile! How can you not melt when he smiles like that..even if he's been wailing like a siren for hours.

good luck with those nasty sharp bits of ivory forcing their way out...

brutal process
Kris McCracken said…
ELW, he does have a certain charm...
Kris McCracken said…
Lettuce, especially when he is learning to crawl and has a cold at the same time.

A challenge.

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...

Hold me now, oh hold me now, until this hour has gone around. And I'm gone on the rising tide, to face Van Dieman's Land

Theme Thursday again, and this one is rather easy. I am Tasmanian, you see, and aside from being all around general geniuses - as I have amply described previously - we are also very familiar with the concept of WATER. Tasmania is the ONLY island state of an ISLAND continent. That means, we're surrounded by WATER. That should help explain why I take so many photographs of water . Tasmania was for a long time the place where the British (an island race terrified of water) sent their poor people most vile and horrid criminals. The sort of folk who would face the stark choice of a death sentence , or transportation to the other end of the world. Their catalogue of crimes is horrifying : stealing bread assault stealing gentlemen's handkerchiefs drunken assault being poor affray ladies being overly friendly with gentlemen for money hitting people having a drink and a laugh public drunkenness being Irish Fenian terrorist activities being Catholic religious subversion. ...
