She’s a Bowman’s Wolf, uplifted by genetic manipulation, and there’s been no impropriety between Florence and Winston.

With his lower half turned, his toes will keep him uncomfortably up off the bed, in push-up position. … And I don’t think you can connect them sideways.
Maybe they have to lie on their backs, butt upward.

I found the caption, but I was searching for one that said why they were all holding up one finger.
Didn’t find it… But I’m guessing it’s just a “We’re number one!” sort of gesture.
Most complete but still concise caption I found…
“In January 1987, to celebrate Paramount Pictures 75th Anniversary, every living star associated with the company was gathered… from L to R: (front row): Martha RAY, Dana Andrews, Elizabeth TAYLOR, Frances Dee, Joel McCrea, Harry Dean Stanton, Harrison FORD, Jennifer Beals, Marlee MATLIN, Danny DeVito. (2nd row) Olivia DE HAVILLAND, Kevin COSTNER, Cornel Wilde, Don AMECHE, Deforest Kelley, Tom CRUISE, Charlton HESTON, Penny Marshall, Bob HOPE, Victor MATURE, Elizabeth McGovern, Robert DE NIRO. (3rd row) Andrew McCarthy, Henry Winkler, Anthony PERKINS, Robert Stack, Mark Harmon, Faye DUNAWAY, Buddy Rogers, Gregory PECK, Debra WINGER, Timothy Hutton. (4th row) Jane RUSSELL, Mike Connors, John TRAVOLTA, Janet LEIGH, Charles BRONSON, Ted DANSON, Lou Gossett Jr, Ryan O’NEAL, Rhonda Fleming, Leonard Nimoy. (5th row) William SHATNER, Peter Graves, Molly RINGWALD, Dorothy LAMOUR, Olivia Newton-John, Cindy Williams, Matthew Broderick, Gene HACKMAN, Walter MATTHAU, Robin WILLIAMS. (back row) Ali MacGraw, Burt LANCASTER, Scott Baio, Rhea Perlman, Bruce Dern, James CAAN, Glenn FORD, Fred MACMURRAY, Shelley Long, James STEWART. Photo by Terry O’Neill.”
I do have to say….
I’d think there’s a bit of hyperbole in calling it every living star associated with the company. Surely a line had to be determined between star and non-star, and the boundary was fuzzy. And there must have been some who were too busy, too ill… or just said no.
I bought a few red bananas at the Mexican grocery store.
They cost way more than yellow ones, but I kept reading about how wonderful they were, and I had to find out. And even triple the price of three yellow bananas isn’t like buying a diamond bracelet. I think it was about $2.
They were quite sweet, otherwise not much different from yellow. Certainly not raspberry flavor. Of course, there must be more than one variety.
But produce marketers seem obsessed with raspberry. Occasionally in the last few years we’ve been able to get blood oranges. They’re blotchy orange and deep red outside, and ruby red to orange inside, with a bit of a bitter kick.
I ate them as a kid in Libya… Maybe it’s nostalgia, but I like them, and when they’re on sale or marked down, I buy some.
A couple of years ago, somebody started marketing them as “Raspberry oranges ™”.
I think it’s to soften the image, because they think people don’t like buying “blood” oranges. They taste nothing like raspberries. I think they gave up, cos I haven’t seen that trademark for a while. After all, people drink sangria, and that name comes from the Spanish for blood.
Now the Cara Cara oranges at Costco, which are pinkish inside, have a sign that says they’re extra sweet, with a hint of raspberry flavor. They’re not, and they haven’t got that.
Whoever is trying to convince everyone that a touch of red tastes like raspberries… just stop it!
Yeah, I was about to say that I’m pretty sure the dog wasn’t buying it.
He recognized friends… a silly costume won’t fool a dog. They seldom attach meaning to unfamiliar clothing anyway.
“You want to interrupt my dinner with your tomfoolery? Get lost!”
BTW… What were those costumes supposed to represent? I’m not sure I approve!
And BTW again… I added the word “unfamiliar” above, because I’ve known dogs who absolutely knew the meaning of certain familiar clothes.
I had a dog who would quite obviously pout when I put my work uniform on… She knew I’d be leaving.
And a friend’s dog would jump on her coat, trying to knock it off the hanger, when she wanted a walk. She did it even in summer, when my friend didn’t wear the coat.
Anyway… Cute trick, solves the problem of getting the pizza box into the fridge; but no thanks.
Costco pizza boxes are heavier than that… I don’t think I could get one to fold so easily. Plus leaving the pizza for a day or two sitting at directly on the box will make it taste like cardboard, and it’s not airtight, so it’ll dry out.
It’s easier just to stack the slices two by two in a big ziplock bag, or if you have one, a flat plastic or glass container so you don’t need single use plastic.
Well…. a teeny bit of it, anyway.
The bit that needed the puzzle solution.
I thought this one looked hard, but once I started solving, it seemed to fall into place. There are, it’s true, a couple of quite small and/or subtle differences, but look closely, and you’ll find them.
I do like that the lady seems unfazed by the robot and his dog. Then again, it’s New York City. I think New Yorkers aren’t all that…. um… fazeable.
BTW I apologize for a stray red mark, and you may also be able to see a slight correction in my solution. Neither should be earth shattering, and I didn’t have time to do it all over.
OK, thought I had ten, because I found ten differences, but they’re not the ten differences you found Susan. I mean, nine of them are, but I missed one of yours and found a different one.
The other one I found, and the one I missed.
Far right of the cloud top right where it meets the frame is one that I spotted. The one I missed is the point where the leads cross.

Look in my eyes and
Deny it. No human could
Love you as much I do

Furries! Gotta love’em!
well yes–to a point
that’s what I was going to say…..

BTDT…
You better turn his bottom half around or it ain’t gonna work! His feet are pointing up.
The plight of a Lego guy, with unbending ankles.
With his lower half turned, his toes will keep him uncomfortably up off the bed, in push-up position. … And I don’t think you can connect them sideways.

I was amazed at how many I couldn’t recognize, then I started seeing more and more!
Me too.
I don’t know who they all are, but there is certainly a lot of them.

Pizza never lasts long enough around our house to try that.
Not even going to eat any first?

This looks like Legos to me.

I guess fava beans would spoil, so you have to provide fresh ones, the way you have to add an egg to boxed cake mix

Give it a try….
BTW I apologize for a stray red mark, and you may also be able to see a slight correction in my solution. Neither should be earth shattering, and I didn’t have time to do it all over.
I even had a stray red mark on my solution. Just not in the same place as yours.
You have no need to apologize! These people are darned lucky to have you to help them out! If they don’t like it, they can go to CoGomics.
Thanks!
or hell, whichever comes first
Wow, I’m so excited! I had the same ten marked, but some were so minuscule I had little confidence in them. Surprised myself.
I felt the same, till I counted them up and there were ten, and only ten, so I figured they had to be the ten.
I was especially skeptical
OK, thought I had ten, because I found ten differences, but they’re not the ten differences you found Susan. I mean, nine of them are, but I missed one of yours and found a different one.
