It is indeed “Notre Dame” in Paris.
The Eiffel Tower is just a little North of West from the cathedral.
All being well, Notre Dame will reopen in December next year for both services and visiting.
As I said earlier, the PC idiots (I called them animals for that post) are apparently getting involved, so let’s hope they get squashed.
There are some really spectacular pictures of Notre Dame (before the fire) and Paris in general by the same photographer HERE.
I’ll see your sacrilege and raise you a “I never liked Disney cartoons”. I mean the movies are pretty good but the whole Mickey, Donald, etc. didn’t seem that funny. I was Warner Bros all the way.

“Le Grand van Gogh” By: Bruno Catalano (sculptor / born in Morocco / now French)
Part of a series of sculptures (at least 30) titled “Les Voyageurs” by the sculptor.
I cannot find where this picture was taken for sure, but it might be Marseille.
Today’s Songs:
‘Sign of the Times,’ ‘Signs,’ ‘Silence is Golden,’ and ‘Silhouettes,’and the ‘Cheap Thrills Cuisine’ recipe ‘Beef Filet Appetizer.’
She was 33 years old when this was released.
‘The Five Man Electrical Band’ was formed in Ottawa in in 1963 as the ‘Staccatos’. ‘The Tremoloes’ are still active; they were first formed in 1958 so I doubt it’s the same personnel.
Unlike nighthawks’ posting on September 25, this is the full song (the punch line Greyhame referred to at that time occurs at 1:22.
“The Evil White Cat” (the sobriquet given to us by the almost certainly, sadly, deceased Katina Cooper), could take apart any black cat with one swipe of her paw.
Nah, not quite; just retinal reflection. We do Geocaching (activity), Nubi was a feature on a Travel Bug (dog-tag) we sent out into the Wide World of Geocaching, and his part was of the Committee “enforcer”. https://www.geocaching.com/track/details.aspx?id=4135444

I would not want to be down below when a piece of that breaks off. As it appears one is ready to do before long.
I think he’s one of the famous grotesques on Notre Dame cathedral.
They’re beloved, and it’s possible he’d already been stablized with some sort of internal repair.
But the fire in 2019 damaged some of them farther, and they need even more work.
Some are being replaced with new copies. That didn’t seem right to me, but then I found out some had already been replaced in the 19th century.

I’ve taken a photo of that guy back in ’79.
NOSE?
..
It’s nice to finally see that someone is paying attention.
If his nose weren’t pink I’d have thought he was a sculpture.
NOSE!

She’s thinking: What does a girl have to do to get a head in this town?
Barbie after Ken’s passing?
I didn’t have many Barbies (2, to be precise) – the first one had black hair.
She’s simply beside herself with grief.

It may be sacrilegious, but I never really saw the point of any of this series.
I’ll see your sacrilege and raise you a “I never liked Disney cartoons”. I mean the movies are pretty good but the whole Mickey, Donald, etc. didn’t seem that funny. I was Warner Bros all the way.

That is a very cute little girl.

Sounds interesting…
Just look at this guy. No visible means of support.
Those were some really spicy enchiladas!

“The Haunted House” By: Rudy Faber (freelance illustrator / this from 2018)
Oowe, Oowe!
A possible “Spot the Differences”…!
considered it , but it’s too dark to see clearly enough
Just a thought in return, nothing more…
wow! much better
Yes, and the possibilities abound should you want…
It looks like they have living, room furniture.
It’s the Barbie Doll House I wanted when I was a girl!
Do you have something you’d like to share with us… um…. Steve…??
That was a good one! EWC is the core of creepy!
The whole of Nighthawks’ posting is very seasonal!
very!
And in the creepy chest was
A CREEP!
Sho’ nuff.

“Nightmare before Christmas”, a couple of weeks early. As usual.
A good creepy story, I’m glad it wasn’t a black cat!
“The Evil White Cat” (the sobriquet given to us by the almost certainly, sadly, deceased Katina Cooper), could take apart any black cat with one swipe of her paw.
Maybe just shut up once in a while? 🙁
almost certainly?
We only know that Katina didn’t post again, after saying one day, coincidentally or otherwise, that she didn’t feel well.
We have ZERO evidence, other than your assumption, that she became seriously ill, much less that she actually passed away.
She may have had some condition she didn’t tell us about…
Then again, she had also said not long before that she was about to be busy with a new job, and didn’t know whether she’d have time for the comics.
It’s one thing to surmise, another to state your guess as a fact.
Apropos of nothing.
I don’t know exactly when this occurred, but I just saw it on Wednesday of this week.
I forgot to post it yesterday.
apropos of nothing is what we do here
At least he persuaded Albert to vacate the green.
scary and creepy!!!
Here’s mine!
Ours, now just over 10 years old:
A blue-eyed cat!?!

That movie scarred the you know what out of me when I was a kid! I think maybe I have only watched it once since then!
Darn, we should’ve had hot dogs and beer tonight.
EEeeeek! I should have hid behind the couch.
Wow, there was some really beautiful artwork here.
the real E.W.C.
Klaude?!
A beautifully drawn animation!
I lost the Internet last night just before I could say so
