An American Home, I suspect.

 

Call it ... a hunch, but I think that this display might be related to the American nationality of the owner.

A strange thing to be proud of, IMHO.  (  :-D )

Tedium Time

 Yes, it's Tedious Tuesday again. The time for the non-creme-de-la-creme of slides. As usual, it's interesting to speculate why a slide shot was taken, and why it was kept. 

In this case, I'm guessing that it was an insurance protection - in the event of theft, then the police would have something definitive to look for. Nice thinking. Maybe I should do the same.

Bonus - Not Safe For Kids / Narrow-Minded Christians.   Richard Dawkins reading some of the letters and emails sent to him.  Wow.  Haters Gotta Hate !

Buy me that for Christmas, and you'll get a punch in the throat.

"From our holiday in Africa..."

Oh, how those winter nights must have flown by in the sixties.     A cold November night, and Mr and Mrs McGregor invite the neighbours round for some wine, some cheese, and some slide from their recent holiday in Kenya.

You can imagine their spirits being crushed as Mr McGregor sets up the projector and screen, Mrs McGregor handed round a bowl of nuts...the very bowl that she bought in that Nairobi suburb to help the natives.  As the slide show starts...yes, a slide of that very bowl they saw just seconds before.

No wonder Marijuana was so popular.

Bonus - Chester Zoo.      Chimp Breeding Centre ???
