A boy scout troop went on a hike. Crossing over a stream, one of
the boys dropped his wallet into the water. Suddenly a carp jumped, grabbed
the wallet and tossed it to another carp. Then that carp passed it to
another carp, and all over the river carp appeared and tossed the wallet back
and forth.
"Well, boys," said the Scout leader, "you've just seen a rare case
of carp-to-carp walleting."

Sonnet 134 - CXXXIV
So now I have confessed that he is thine,
And I my self am mortgaged to thy will,
Myself I'll forfeit, so that other mine
Thou wilt restore to be my comfort still:
But thou wilt not, nor he will not be free,
For thou art covetous, and he is kind;
He learned but surety-like to write for me,
Under that bond that him as fast doth bind.
The statute of thy beauty thou wilt take,
Thou usurer, that put'st forth …

Sonnet 145 - CXLV
Those lips that Love's own hand did make,
Breathed forth the sound that said 'I hate',
To me that languished for her sake:
But when she saw my woeful state,
Straight in her heart did mercy come,
Chiding that tongue that ever sweet
Was used in giving gentle doom;
And taught it thus anew to greet;
'I hate' she altered with an end,
That followed it as gentle day,
Doth follow night, who like a…

"Jesse Jackson was a gift from God and a witness that God exists in the ways he cared for and lifted all people, the way he called forth a rainbow coalition of people to challenge economic and social inequality from the pulpit to a historic presidential run, the way he dared to keep hope alive whenever the nation struggled with being who she says she is and yet ought to be."

#SmallWinButItsAllIGot I opened this packaging with my bare hands, clearly I am ready to take on a grizzly bear.
(I bent it in half across the top, then flexed it back and forth as fast as I could, thinking that if I could put enough heat into the bend it would weaken the plastic. I don't know if I generated that much heat. But it did weaken.)

Empty plastic product packaging, the kind that is welded shut.  It is torn open from the top all the way down to the product bulge.

Slowly getting into a rhythm to start the day with doing a print each morning, each time still tweaking either negatives, concentrations and/or durations of different processing stages to adjust tones/hues... A new adventure with some back and forth each time!
This print is of Langkofel / Sassolungo, one of my favourite mountain massifs, just such interesting features and so many dear memories, here seen from the east (around half and hour before sunset)...

iPhone photo of a 8x6" kallitype print of a photo of the Langkofel mountain massif with its talus fields and some scattered pine forest in the foreground. The sky is filled with layers of small clouds illuminated by the evening sun. The picture is surrounded by a thick dark brown border of the exposed hand-painted photo emulsion.

I just got into the car and my car informed it's still updating and I can't start driving while it does, I'll have to wait a short while.
Another driver saw me getting into the car and started to park in the spot in front of me. As said, it was a bit tight. Back. Forth. Back. Forth. 1/…

Same goes for several productions of the German public broadcasters like "Der Tatortreiniger" or "Doppelhaushälfte". Those are so much better than anything the private producers usually come up with...

In an test assertion, do you prefer the expected value first or the actual value first? (
I have been back and forth on this over the years. Sometimes I feel one is more legible than the other. Then I change my mind.
Why do I care? Curiosity! (Probably also some form of API perfectionism 😳 )

Let me be clear. If the state of Washington ever asked me the question:
Permanent DST or switch back and forth?
I would eagerly select "No more switching boneheads".
But I would also be emailing the state legislature asking why on earth they ended up with this boneheaded choice, when the obvious, correct, answer was right there all along: Just abolish DST.

Different company because of partnership constraints, but the SAOT at other major tournaments is instantaneous. Now we eventually get an image, but not vision of the ball at the moment the image purports to represent. PGMOL incompetence👏 …

Why didst thou promise such a beauteous day,
And make me travel forth without my cloak,
To let base clouds o'ertake me in my way,
Hiding thy bravery in their rotten smoke?
'Tis not enough that through the cloud thou break,
To dry the rain on my storm-beaten face,
For no man well of such a salve can speak,
That heals the wound, and cures not the disgrace:
Nor can thy shame give physic to my grief;

Good Morning #Canada
The oldest winter festival opened its ice gates to the public yesterday and runs to February 15th. The Quebec Winter Carnival was first held in 1894 but became an annual event starting in 1955. It's not the largest in the world but it's in the top 2, and record crowds are expected since most Canadians aren't interested in being interrogated at our southern border.
#Bonhomme is the generic term for a figure ( bonhomme de sucre , "sugar baby"; bonhomme de neige , "snowman"). The beloved character who represents the Quebec Winter Carnival lives a pampered life. He has the keys to the city, from the mayor in 1955, and has a new ice castle built for him every year. He also retires someplace cozy after the event and returns refreshed and ready for next year, unlike European festival snowmen who are burned at the close of activities to bring forth spring. Bonhomme has a better manager obviously.
