a nice sleek unitard has a much cleaner line than those baggy leotards the models were sporting. how could a designer not be attentive to such a detail? sadly, whatever effect he was going for was lost with all strobes going off during their walk. although, i achieve a similar effect every december when untangling my christmas lights.

spay whipped cream, spray cheese, spray toothpaste and now spray pancakes and waffles. i wasn't even aware we needed spray batter until now!

it's all organic and vegetarian - but it doesn't say what the propellant is.

forever hollywood (formerly the hollywood memorial park) is an interesting place to wander around.

beside valentino, it's the final resting place of dee dee and johnny ramone, peter lore and edward g. robinson to name only a few.

the crypts hold a display of mementos of david white (who played larry tate on bewitched)that a blend of sweet and creepy. not far from there is joan hacket's famous epitaph "go away - i'm sleeping" is.

marking the grave of mel blank (the voice of bugs bunny and most of warner brothers most memorable voices)is a tasteful stone inscribed with "that's all folks." it delights me that the words of a cartoon pig are inscribed below an star of david.

hollywood forever throws one heck of a great dia de los muertos party. they also show classic movies outside during the summer. you can do a little al fresco dining, watch a good movie and listen to some music while communing with the dead. those plots aren't cheap, i'm glad someone gets to enjoy them.

c'mon, that's the look of someone with something stuck under their contact lens and they can't get it out.

remember, we primates see with two eyes - one near and one far dominant - and they do focus independently to give us depth in vision. it is possible that his left eye is the close vision eye focusing in the mirror to admire his well groomed brows.

also, if someone is looking in a mirror at you, their focus is on you, not the mirror and you can clearly see their gaze is focused on you. ask anyone who has spent time in a dance studio or getting their tresses groomed in a mirror filled salon. so, if the monkey was looking at the person with the camera, his gaze would be focused toward the camera.

so, it's one primate;'s point of view.

clever, but, it looks more like an hors d'œuvre and a bit of fire hazard.

i enjoy making a few batches of sugar skulls every year. the intoxicating aroma of the sugar wafting through the house is almost magical. i give most away, but, i still have some that are years old and have never had a single mouse drop by to admire them. i have a step by step photo tutorial on my site as well.
