Just for fun...


Remember when we said the simplest of tasks can cause anxiety? Well, as it turns out, they can also provide tremendous amounts of amusement.

We thought you would enjoy some sights from a typical, run-of-the-mill, lazy neighborhood walk.

On your right you’ll see a woman, just trying to get around town with a few things on her bike…



And let’s make a quick stop at the bank. Yes, you are correct, that is an ABACUS the BANK TELLER is using. AN ABACUS.




A drink at the local bar is nothing new. Beer, liquor, CATS. And not just cats, but the world’s fattest cat taking a snooze on the Guinness mat.



Given the cat with his tail in your beer, you might then be slightly surprised to look over at the “health code score.” Why have a complicated system filled with letters and numbers, when you can simply have a cartoon smiley face for a job well done. (Of course the natural question is, if the bar with animals gets a smiley face…what has the Starbucks with the sad face done to deserve it?).



As we continue to explore, and as we get better about bringing the camera with us when we leave the house, we’ll add to this list. Because a picture is indeed worth a thousand words.

  2. Sounds like a new cure for EtOH over-achieving (not speaking from personal experience here). Instead of "hair of the dog" let's go with "hair of the cat."
