If you ever want to publish them as a collection, I can provide a set of dog poo and snow still life photos, including a very arty one of frozen dog turds on snow pedestals created by extremely high winds.
Congrats on your 5,000th. Can I borrow, say, 1,500, to keep my morale up?
People always told me I was a cunninglinguist!
I'd like to thank my dog, my friends, my pharmascist, and oh - just everybody!
*bursts into tears a la Gwyneth Paltrow*
nanuk - That would be the cover photo, I believe - and the title, "Sh*t on a Pedastal." It'd sell.
Mr. Faboo - And I have to thank you!
TC - Oh! *grins*
Misty - Here's a tissue, love...
...and we thank you.
Bob Vila - is it just me, or does *everyone* want to smack that guy?
nanuk - are you Scaryduck by any chance?

I won, an award
of dubious provenance
but I'll take it, thanks!
--
It's not just you...
And you're welcome.
Dubious?
You like me! You REALLY like me!
Yes, my pet, I do.
You crack me up, Dawn! :)
*overcome, takes Speedo Cup gratefully, cries all over red halterneck frock, tries to articulate thanks but can't, and finally has to be led away by kind-handed tuxedoed ushers to embarrassed but thunderous applause*
*snif snif* *snif snif* That's joy? Nope just a cold.... Me poetic???? *snif snif* A cold? NOOOOOOO.... JOOOOOYYYYYYY! Thanks Dawn! Where's the cash?
"Speedo cup". Narf narf narf.
Yes, it's all well and good for you to nark, but frickin' Blogger wouldn't let me comment on my own frickin' blog.
rickin', frickin', frackin', where's the booze?
Or narf, even...
