Today has been one of those days where I haven’t sold anything in my online shop.
Have a look at my shop and please repost to spread the word. Thanks.

Finland farmers have been spraying their deer with reflective paint in order to reduce road accidents.
Now glowing antlers light up the dark roads like something out of a sci-fi movie.
Some say it’s genius, others say it’s just plain weird but it’s definitely hard to ignore.

Portfolio update : The Mirror of Pride
"She's been following me for several days; I only see her at dusk. She always stays about ten paces away. When I confront her, she claims to be my shadow. I then asked her if I was her light. She replied that I was confusing my pride with her patience."

"Get it all on record now. Get the films. Get the witnesses. Because somewhere down the track of history some bastard will get up and say that this never happened."

All of the penicillin in use worldwide comes from a strain of mold that was growing on a cantaloupe bought at a grocery store in Peoria, Illinois in 1942.

My dad told me a story about having a drink with Mr Lovell at some local dive bar when this sequence was being filmed for The Man who Fell to Earth back in the 1970's.
My dad said Mr. Lovell had a lot to say about space and what he saw there...
I'll leave it at that.
Rest in peace, spaceman.

The man's living room. There's a couch, coffee table, and foot stool, as well as some tall windows. Lots of wood.

Another living space with a fireplace and bookshelf. Possibly a compression hallway leading to this room.

Roland Reisley is 101 years old, the last original client of Frank Lloyd Wright. He still lives in the 3,200 square foot home that Wright built for him in 1952.

The price? $40,000. Or a little less than half a million in today's money.

I’m like this with my rabbit. Any change in poop habits or diet and I’m throwing money at the vet. Every time I’m concerned it’s been about nothing at all, and I’m sure it the same for you and your kitty. All the best anyway, and Mambo says hi

In his Irish country house, which he described as "the nearest point on earth to heaven". "When I go," he said, "I hope it will be from here." He died near his home in 1978.
