Flower buds are amazing…..

Look at all that compressed magic… pleated tighter than the thinnest silk.

You can feel the tension as it splits.

A few moments later, a bright red blossom will gently shake its ruffles free, already many times too large to go back into its tight green casing.

Who was the architect? M. C. Escher? Rube Goldberg?

This has to be a montage, or some other form of cut and paste, if “montage” doesn’t cover reusing parts of the same image.

Some bits are reversed, but in most of the duplications, the windows, with their drapes and other content, and the shadows, are the same.

The slanted stairs rising on the middle right from the 2nd story are repeated at left near the top.

I see the same dark square window at least 3 times.

The top half of the arch at bottom left center is repeated two floors up, and again to the upper left of that repeat.

And so on.

Here’s the (AFAIK) actual building…. if even this part is real, but it seems to be.

Wait a second. Venus’s orbit around the sun is inside Earth’s orbit. If the Queen is from Venus, shouldn’t she be the “Queen of Inner Space?”

Zsa Zsa Gabor actually made movies!

Sometimes i forget.

Most of her fame arose from being famous.

She raised being a celebrity to an art form, appearing on talk shows with nothing to promote except her own visibility….

Everybody recognized her but few could tell you why.

Are you familiar with the sequel to “Kentucky Fried Movie” – “Amazon Women on the Moon”?
Those parts of the movie are an excellent parody of above movie (German title: “In den Krallen der Venus”), including the repeated passing of the same group of boulders.
Yes; we’ve seen it at the movies in a late night double feature with “Attack of the Killer Tomatoes” – titled “Worst movies of all times”… We’ve always loved the latter.

I read that until he aged out Hal Roach considered Stymie the de facto leader of the gang.

Looks like a couple of Fat Cats. And what do you call that coat pattern?

I was waiting to see if Fifi would suddenly stop running and get thrown off by the centrifugal force.

Cleo made a mistake!

Sometimes she forgets that she’s a cartoon character.
And cartoon characters must never look down.

Since they’re made of imagination, if they don’t see the ground they can stay aloft forever…

But one glance downward makes them aware of reality, and the unsustainability of flight.

It’s as true of a ski jumping basset as a roadrunner chasing coyote.
