Something tells me we have seen something similar, if not this same image, previously on this site. Possibly on Sherpa. As best I can remember, it was a short stretch, through parkland maybe, between much longer stretches of typical urban settings. And in Europe. I think someone, probably Alexi, found and posted a short video clip from inside the train as it drove through the transitional area.
I regularly walk on a curb (when it’s safe) to keep my agility. With one side on the grass at curb level and the other on solid pavement just a few inches down I don’t worry about getting hurt. I even take a few steps backwards every now and then.
No, sorry… this is at the height of her drinking and drugging.
I remembered, after my last post, that her wrist tattoo was a big deal at the time. Women very rarely got tattoos, especially ones that showed in public, until she did it.
I looked it up. She got it in early 1970.
That was only months before she died from an overdose, at 27, after years of hard partying.
What I read today mostly said the symbol stood for women’s liberation… But that’s not how I remember it. It was a drawing of a bracelet she wore.
I could be wrong, but I think she said she GOT A TATTOO as a sign of women’s liberation, to show that women should feel free to get one.
I AM surprised that she looked this youthful just before her passing. Maybe I’m looking through rose-coloured glasses, of my long-past youth.
Still a waste, though, of good talent.

Beet it, bub! I saw it first!
Gosh….
Silly me… I thought it was a romantic dinner date.
Did you skip a chapter of “The Birds and the Bees?”
Oh!
I knew there must be a reason I’ve had so much trouble with men.

Probably actually tripped and fell over a pile of Legos.

SNAKES! Why’d it have to be snakes.
Looks like a hookworm.
Make it STOP!!!

I like this regardless if it’s AI, PhotoShop, or real. Note that if it’s real, I want a ride!

It’s REAL, but you have to go about 900 miles east of Moscow to ride on it.
Aah … That’s why all the results of my search were in Russian.
Thanks

Who says science isn’t any fun?
Kung Fu Grandma?

Way too self-centered. You’re keeping some deserving orthopedic surgeon out of his well-earned remuneration.
I used to do that at lunch when I was working.
I want to be the trippER, not the trippEE.
There’s a story here I’m missing…
You have to ask Kitty to read a it aloud.
He didn’t know you were interested.

Excuse me, do I know you?
The older I get, the younger she looks in her pictures.
I don’t mean in relation to me… Of course we’re getting farther apart, because I’m aging, and she, sadly, never will.
I mean I used to see a woman a bit older than me, making bad choices, I thought, but nonetheless, an adult.
Gradually, she became my age, then someone younger.
Then far too young to be doing the drinking and drugs I saw in the pictures….
And now I see a child.
She can’t be over 27, and she’s probably in her mid 20s here… looking even younger…
A sweet child, trying too hard to prove she was all grown up, which she never got to be.
I want to stop her, but I can’t.
Such a waste. This photo shows how fresh and young and a kind of innocence, well before the drugs took hold.

I went digging a bit more, found when this photo was taken:
Chelsea Hotel in June 1970 in New York City
https://www.gettyimages.ca/detail/news-photo/blues-singer-janis-joplin-on-the-roof-garden-of-the-chelsea-news-photo/135992345
And from what I saw today, she got the tattoo in “very early 1970” and died in October of that year.
She looks good in this picture, but I’ve seen some wasted looking ones.
Maybe she made the decision to overdose later that year right then?
Not at all.

Lotsa cats
The other cats are fat little pointy-eared dogs.
The clue is that the artist himself says we’re looking for “the” cat.
Yup.
Yes!
Maybe?
No. I was way wrong.
Several dogs that look like cats (Beige with Pointed ears) but which aren’t.
I remember the confusion over the Beige dogs the last time we saw this some time ago.
Yes

Looks like a perfect day for a leisurely sail.
Nice phone wallpaper.
I believe those two are headed for the Tunnel of Love.
Who ever said clowns were scary?
These things must be handled delicately.
If you goof up they’ll belt ya’
You shoulda seen the one that got away!
Trouser snake indeed!
😀
Ok…
1) I’ve seen Cleo drive.
She’s not good at it, but she knows how to start the car, and steer… And somehow reach the gas pedal.
2) I’ve seen Cleo try to run over a cat, on purpose.
3) Cleo now has a roadkill stand.
….
I know how to put two and two together.
Let’s try adding one, two and three.
….
Claude! Do you know where your car was last night?
Maybe you should go sniff the wheel wells.
the limitations of WordPress prevent me from giving you more than one like on that one.
