Yup.

Aug 1973 Abstract Architecture

 

Yes.

Bonus - Three tough cowboys were sitting around the campfire one night, bragging about how fearless and rugged they are.

The first one says: "Just yesterday, I was walking along Dead Man’s Trail when a 12-foot rattlesnake slithered out from under a rock. I grabbed it, bit its head off, and sucked out all the venom. And here I am, still kicking!"

The second cowboy scoffs: "That’s nothing. Last week, I was passing by old Bill’s ranch. A 500-pound bull had escaped and killed Bill, his wife, and three passers-by. I grabbed that bull by the horns, flipped it upside down, and hogtied it so it couldn’t hurt anyone else."

The third cowboy didn’t say a word—he just kept poking the fire with his penis.

Wilson's Widgets

 

Yes, it is Tedious Tuesday, but needed a new background for my PC, and this fitted my mood. From an undated slide.

Bonus - 

Mud.

 

Looks like a mud volcano to me.

Yes, such things exist.

Especially in Azerbaijan

Bonus -

Flat 1.

 

I'm sure that the original photographer has a more poncey title for this slide (sumfink like 

"The inevitable collapse of a Theocratic Omniverse in the face of Rustic Rhinoplasty"

but "Flat 1." seems good enough for me.

Bonus - Amazon Let Its Drivers’ Urine Be Sold as an Energy Drink

We have a match

 

As summer sunshine results in a dip in Blog Visitor numbers (daily visits are bellow 100,000 per day. WELL below.) I suppose no-one will complain if I have a few Punny Titles.

So, today's slide is another "Huh?  Why photograph that?" slide.

Bonus - 

Nick Cave. (Obviously.)

Abstractly Yours...

 

On first glance at this slide, I was thinking "What The Flubblesticks?".

Cue much squinting, and turning the slide 90 degrees.

And then... "A-ha". Got it. Can't un-see it.

And now you have it but with the aide of it being right-way-up. (Or is it.... :-D )

Bonus - Every Problem is an Opportunity. (NSFK)

Bonus 2 - 

Mystery Medical Malady

From the big box of medical teaching slides...this.

 Luckily, there's no info on the slide, so I hope some of you medics out there can identify this.

Bonus -

Indeed.

Ummm Abstract

Suggestions?



Bonus -

There Are More Questions Than Answers.

Yes, the mere existence of this slide causes my brain much, much speculation.


Who?    Why ?      Where ?


Bonus - Tree vs Avalanche

Your Tests Have Come Back, Mr Futo.

And the 'ologist has no idea what this is.  Maybe it's some ants swarming around a dropped Tic-Tac.


From a box full of medical instruction slides, but (alas) no description.

Bonus - Words Fail Me. Really. (NSFW NSFK)

From here

Nope. I Really Don't Know.

My first thought was that this was...a ...ummm....  Nope

Absolutely noclue.

The abstract Something

I've been staring at this slide for several weeks, and I'm still perplexed as to who, what, why, where or even which-way-up.

But I like it.

Bonus - Road Rage Retreat.

Bonus 2 - Why Is Your First Instinct After Hurting Your Finger to Put It in Your Mouth?

Shapes and Colours

Artistically Abstract.

Righteously Random

Things in a Photograph.

Nice.

Bonus - Had a meal out tonight with the lovely Misty. The European is still a damned fine restaurant.

Bonus 2 - Icelandic Has the Best Words for Technology

Seventy Five Years

A simple graphic slide, for the anniversary of Pearl Harbour.

USS Arizona memorial.

Ummmm I Dunno.

Sometimes I happen across an abstract slide image, and have fun figuring out what it is.

Today, I'm stumped.

Suggestions and thoughts may be sent to the usual address.


Bonus - Strangely fascinating.

Abstraction

Another case of questionable photography leading to intriguing art.

Some massive sculpture has been photographed in a non-flattering manner, and the result is almost Abstract.   Rather good, I'd say.


Bonus - God says that Real Men pee standing up!

Strong Abstract Architecture

Another slide that falls on the cusp of Tedious and Genius.

Probably hated by 90% of blog visitors.

Bonus - Was reading a shitty article about odd product review, and thought back to the first daft review I saw. After some extreme Google Fu, I found it again.

Can You Tell What It Is?

It could just be a random abstract image.

But can you tell what it is?

As a clue, it's in a box of random medical education slides.

No, I dunno, but I'm sure it was painful/messy/fatal.

Bonus -

An Exercise in Perspective

No information, but was in a box of slide with European Scenes, Does that look like a dolphin in the water to you ?
