Rear-end crewmen of Canadian National freight 710 peer into a blizzard at the first of a dozen westbound trains they will meet on their 113-mile run east out of Edmundston, N.B. Philip R. Hastings photo
By this ARTICLE in Britain’s “Daily Star,” this is a real plant native to Central and South America called a lipstick plant in English.
It can grow to 3 metres (a lttle under 10 feet) tall.
There are some other really weird plants pictured throughout the article too.
I don’t know if this SITE belongs to the artist or a fan, but what nighthawks posted is a working drawing of what I think is a Beatles tribute (it’s in colour at the site).
A little more exploring this morning yielded the site link above does indeed belong to the Swedish illustrator/artist MATTIAS ADOLFSSON. There is a great deal more of his whimsical work posted here at what appears to be his main site.
It’s drawn somewhat in the style of Where’s Waldo…
But you sure don’t have to try very hard to find the Beatles.
They’re everywhere! Or maybe here and there and everywhere.
The roof concert, Penny Lane, the Magical Mystery Tour bus…
The Cavern Club, with the Quarrymen playing.
A strawberry field… and of course the Yellow Submarine.
Scouse cuisine, Eleanor Rigby.
A bar says CCCR, where they’re back in the USSR.
Lot’s more, probably including some I didn’t get.
Cool.
Cookie is a Velcro dog. She tends to stick to me. Unless, of course, she decides to jump the fence and take off down the block. For a clingy dog, she’ll run if she gets the chance.
No no. I think 1783 is the year you could have expected PERRO TM and Maria to start having puppies. After all, this is back when Spain was still the colonial power in CA.
!—oo-oo! we can market the Perro action figures., including Señorita Voluptuasa, Asssinato and even a beat-up Fernando. The much-coveted
Perro action figure comes with a sword, whip and pistola
. just for that fantastic mug design , you get 40% of the profits on all of it.

That’s one tight turn!
Hoping to “hitch a ride?”

…comes from HERE.
I almost corrected your spelling of “Edmonton…”
..
Tulip?
not really but it does indeed have two-lips
As you would say…
Boo!
Audrey?

Who are the four guys on the roof supposed to be?
The four guy in the crosswalk.
Those are beetles, not Beatles…
I started out looking for Waldo.
Me too.

Probably the full picture:

Peek-a-boo!
See no evil.
Hear no evil.
Speak no evil.
Screensaver? If not, it should be.
Looks like the Tholian web.
I’ve always wondered why the Enterprise couldn’t escape a two-dimensional web…
..but scarier , in that context
Like a recurring dream…. an unending game of pick-up-sticks that you can never win.
The dream I get after an evening of rigging model ships!

Edward Hopper, ‘Nighthawks’ 1942.
No flash in the museum, please!
“I didn’t think you meant that kind of stairing contest…”
find three sets of number that aren’t 529
Done.
That’s what I found too.
That pony is a pet.
“Just keep scratching till I tell you to stop.”
what an ass
No, not a donkey…
What? You again?
I’m leaning to this being staged.
The kid is nowhere close enough to the water to have landed the fish where this is taking place.
Actually, i have seen tat play out wit little kids and their first fish.
My little brother, for one. My grandpa caught it on film, and we laughed at it often.
I wasn’t with my brother, cos he went fishing with a neighbor kid … my family didn’t fish.
He was about 5, so I was maybe 8.
He brought his catch home.
So proud and excited!
One baby Bluegill, illegally small.
My mother cleaned and fried it.
She usually refused to clean fish but this was only one tiny one, maybe 4″long.
One little nibble for each of the five of us.
Tetherfish!
I think i’m getting a new pup tomorrow. A whippet/terrier. Only 20lbs, but should have enough energy to keep up with Buddies big butt.
If I’m counting correctly, the new pup makes pet number four; when do you expect to get any sleep? 🙂
Se would be number two. If she gets along with Buddy.
What happened to Kiki?
Kiki is my cat. 🙂
Did I miss something? What about Kiki?
Misunderstanding. Kiki is fine.
So the new pup will be Buddy’s pet?
At this point i not think so. Since she was dropped off tis morning se as become very clingy. Poor little thing.
Cookie is a Velcro dog. She tends to stick to me. Unless, of course, she decides to jump the fence and take off down the block. For a clingy dog, she’ll run if she gets the chance.
And, (!!!) i’m having trouble with my *H* key and *space bar*.
Gesundheit.

From yesterday.
This is a different way of putting a comic online, but here’s the “Francis” comic from yesterday.
I think (s)he must be a very naughty loid.
WIERD creatures ! ! !
But interesting to watch.
¡Hola, Cleomigos y Cleomigas!
You’re just in time!
Watch, as Perro™ saves the fair Señorita Voluptuosa…
and then… he rides again!
Wow! So much action!
…
Action?
OMG, Nighthawks, I remember discussing this with you before!
By now you should be in talks with Mego or Hasbro… maybe even Mattel!
Surely every neighborhood kid would love to collect all 6…no, 10… no, 17 Perro™ action figures!
Leave it to me, Nighthawks…
I’ll be in charge of marketing!
…
I see Perro™ action figures… and lunchboxes!
And a “Perro™ Rides” board game…
and the new Perro™ video game series!
And…. and..
…
And why not Cleo merchandise as well?
Cleo mugs and Cleo T-shirts…
….
Streaming Cleo Clifford movies…. “Cleo Sings!” on Spotify…
Christmas is coming, you know…
You don’t even have to raise my salary… just give me a small percentage…. like… oh… 11.72%… or 14.53?
I bet I could do better than the $0000000.00/week I get now!
Maybe even… $000000000000.00!!
Or MORE!!
Sigh….
…
But I digress…. Okay, back to Perro™ ….
I didn’t mean to leave him in the midst of danger.
Who is this Don Delehoundro???
Someone we trust to not steal the affections of the lovely Señorita while they are alone together?
It is a comic strip… sometimes things move fast.
Oh… wait…. I think that’s the name of Don Doggo‘s father.
This looks like his hacienda.
But I cannot be certain.
…
Then again… As Don Doggo, Perro™ portrayed himself as having a weakness for las senoritas.
Perhaps as Perro™, though, he has no time for such foolishness.
He may be one of those masked heroes like The Lone Ranger… of whom he professes never to have heard…
A hero who rides in, dispatches the villains…and rides away!
So he can ride again!’
…
But .I dunno… this is one very pretty Señorita…
Does Perro™ suddenly see puppies in his future?
Perhaps he dreams of settling down, near his proud papa, and protecting the valley from any more would-be Slurezes?
Oooh… Perro™ puppies! Will it be possible to adopt one??!
I want to be on the waiting list!
1783? Really?
No no. I think 1783 is the year you could have expected PERRO TM and Maria to start having puppies. After all, this is back when Spain was still the colonial power in CA.
Yeah… We agree then, on that being the first litter
Cos that’s what I meant.
I probably should have said 1797….
The year Maria finally put her foot down and said “Okay! Enough kids!”
I absolutely LOVE that mug!
!—oo-oo! we can market the Perro action figures., including Señorita Voluptuasa, Asssinato and even a beat-up Fernando. The much-coveted
Perro action figure comes with a sword, whip and pistola
. just for that fantastic mug design , you get 40% of the profits on all of it.
sigh
Wow…. you mean… maybe….
a figure that isn’t all zeros?
Like…. $1.67 some time?
What if I could make $9.23??!!
Fernando comes with bandaids.
Princess May sits on rocks after running aground off Sentinel Island in the Lynn Canal, Alaska. She was later re-floated and saw another 20 years of service, 1910.
Fawn. I’m keeping the name.
She’s gorgeous!
So now we have to call you Fawn?
She’s a cutie. And stylin’ too.
She’s a big one; when you said pup I was thinking much smaller.
