"Elderly"
Found this coming out from breakfast this morning... As if the use of "indivisible" in place of "individual" wasn't bad enough, the random use of quotation marks really drives the point home:

Indivisble

Found in an asian market

for $10 you can own a hippo sitting on a toilet that serves no other purpose. I was expecting maybe a bank? But nope.

Found Photographs
Seeing as it's Armistice Day, I felt this is probably the perfect day to post this.

Last week was spent going through all of my eighty three year old Great Uncle Jack's photographs and scanning them in so that the entire family can have copies of each others pictures. I got to the very bottom of the pile and there was a small brown book there. I pick it up and Uncle Jack then tells me it's photographs from when he was in the army. He was stationed at Goslar, Germany, on the slopes of the Harz mountain range from 1942-1945.

My Uncle Jack has always been a keen photographer (see my icon for proof) and when he joined the army, being a non-smoker and cigarettes being scarce, he was able to keep his cigarettes and swap them for a camera when he got enough. He also developed the pictures while he was stationed at Goslar.

Here they are:


Uncle Jack's company






Uncle Jack's name and army number.


The Steinberg Hotel in Goslar where he stayed.


Images of the mountains.


More images of the mountains and a friend




Friends, the chef at the hotel and a lady who worked at the hotel.




A postcard, kept from when he stayed at the hotel.


Skiing in the Harz.


My Uncle Jack


With more soldiers.


Sergeant Smith (Smithy)


And another picture of my Uncle Jack.

The front of the card was ruined by water damage.

Marilyn in the Attic
MMarilyn in the Attic

While trying to install a ceiling fan, we discovered this old homemade Marilyn Monroe clock in the attic space.

Turns out the photos is from her last 1962 Bruce Sterling photo sessions for Vogue magazine.
