Now that is a blue eyed blond.

Aw… this appears to be an albino basset.

I’ve read that albino dogs usually retain a little pigment, so the blue eyes and bits of light tan fur don’t mean otherwise.

Should he or she be out in the bright sun?

Not if she/he is a true albino.
And not without copious amounts of high SPF sunscreen.

I feel like I should be looking for Waldo.

I’m sure he’s not there… This is not the sort of company he keeps.

I’m guessing they’re all video game characters?

Oh… I haven’t played many video games but I do recognize Mario and Luigi down front… so maybe I’m right.

Yeah, I see Sonic too.

There’s are a few others I kind of recognize but not enough to know their names.

I think maybe the artist stuck in some old familiar ones so people like me would get the concept. 😁

I see Mickey Mouse in the center, a tad to the right. Next to him is that older black and white character. I recognize him… Bosco? I think that is incorrect.

From what I could find, an illustration of a demon, attributed to Louis Le Breton, 1818, when published in the 1863 Dictionanaire Infernal by Jaques C. de Plancy.

One source calls it an etching, the other a woodblock.
FWIW, which isn’t much, I vote etching,

Maybe a couple of woodblocks upside the head?

Looks like a candidate for a good leg takedown. You’d have to crawl up and neutralize the head pretty quickly, but it’s worth a shot!

It’s hard to imagine what, in that tableau, is supposed to be tempting Anthony.

I’m guessing the temptations of power, control, lust and greed, among others.

My assumption is that we’re seeing the real form of the demon, while Anthony sees a beautiful temptress.

Didn’t get the young picture, but I know the adult actor.

For a moment I almost misidentified him but my brain finally kicked in..

I got neither the youth nor the adult (as usual), but while investigating after I searched, I found out that one of his movies was based on a well known song….
….”Oh, Pretty Woman,” by Bill Dees and Roy Orbison.

Leondoggo da Bassetti.

“Vitruvian Basset”.

Shows a basset hound inscribed in both a circular and a square wonton wrapper, thereby highlighting his resemblance to a dumpling.

I’m guessing that, based on her current condition, StelBel will have a slower recuperation than we would wish for her. I started thinking about it, and I would bet that, as she recuperates, she will enjoy seeing what went on during her absence so it helps to bring her back to where she was prior to the stroke. Then again, I hope I’m totally wrong and none of this is needed.

I wasn’t going to mention it till we can celebrate, cos I didn’t want to get a party started under the circumstances… but we’ll make it up to you.

Cleo couldn’t possibly have done it.
Her legs are too short.

That’s her story and she’s sticking to it.

The 500 pounds of kibble where?

Oh… all those 25 pound bags must have fallen out of the truck when it stopped, and landed in the garage.

Today’s Songs:
‘Nina Pretty Ballerina,’ ‘O Fortuna,’ ‘Orinoco Flow,’ and ‘Our House,’ and the ‘Cheap Thrills Cuisine’ recipe ‘Avocado Soup.’
As I’ve said, my favourite ABBA video.
It was StelBel who posted another version of this opera piece; and I finally got to know its name.
Full name in the Irish language, Eithne Pádraigín Ní Bhraonáin. Enya is a phonetic English spelling of Eithne.
I’ve always liked the ‘with two cats in the yard‘ lyric line.

I was going to add an image to my comment but I’m not sure how you cool people are doing that! I’m not very techy. I searched around the googles and didn’t find it. Anyone care to enlighten me?

First off, that second part of your comment really got me. That was so nice to read. Thank you. I don’t intend to be a stranger here. Like so many hobbies/interests in my life (playing guitar, drawing, writing, etc) I can’t seem to keep myself focused for very long and end up floating away from them. Luckily, I still manage to hold down a career and stay faithful to my family. haha. So, at least there’s that.

Secondly, thanks for the tech tip. I’ll try it now. All my love to all of you.
